Material examined. Holotype: Malagasy Republic, Vohimana Reserve, primary forest. 17. 04. 2008. Leg. CS. CSUZDI (Afr-996).
Among the specimens found in a single sample there are considerable differences regarding the length of setae (first of all in the notogastral setae), and also in the strength of the epimeral-ventral sculpture. The number of the branches of the pectinate sensillus is also different. On the more sclerotised specimens more (6–7), on the less sclerotized specimens only 5 side-branches are visible.
Measurements. Length of body: 305–357 µm, width of body: 162–186 µm.
