• Body long and rather slender, spiral upon fixation.
• Cuticle 4 (3.5-4.5) ,urn thick at mid-body, thicker near anterior end and 13.8 (12-l 7),um thick at tail tip with three main layers; with very fine transverse striations at the surface (SEM) and inner radial striations which are most prominent in the tail region.
• Lateral chord 20.3 (18-24) ,um wide at mid-body, i.e. 24.4 (20.5-30) % of the corresponding body width.
• Lateral body pores numerous, but dorsal and ventral body pores few and restricted to the odontostyle region and neck region anterior to bulb, respectively; 7 (5-9) dorsal, 11.3 (10-13) ventral and 16.6 (15-18) lateral pores in the neck region.
• Lip region hemispherical to slightly flattened anteriorly, offset by a marked constriction. Body cuticle behind constriction bulging outward due to thickening of median layer.
• Anterior sensilla 6 + 10, appearing as minute pores under SEM.
• Amphids with stirrup-shaped fovea and wide slit-like opening occupying 70-80% of the width at the constriction.
• Odontostyle long and slender, with forked base. Guiding ring single, located posteriorly.
• Odontophore with weak, but clearly visible flanges. Pharyngeal retractors well developed.
• Slender part of pharynx not offset from enlarged part; latter at first conical, then cylindrical.
• Dorsal gland nucleus smaller than ventrosublateral nuclei. Positions of outlets and nuclei as percentage of bulb length (n = 3) : DO : DN: DO-DN: 10.1 ( 9. 1-10.7) 23.5 (20.8-26.9) 13.5 (11.7-16.2) LSN: RSN: SO: 51.3 (45.5-54.7) 51.7 (46.5-54.7) 75.0 (73.1 -76.6)
• Pharyngo-intestinal junction wide and flattened.
• Tail dorsally convex-conoid with bluntly rounded terminus, without blind canal.

Female:

• Two caudal pores at each side in all females and one adana! pore at each side in two females and at one side in one female.
• Female reproductive system didelphic, amphidelphic. Different parts variable in length according to stage of maturation.
• Uterus with rhomboid crystalloids mainly in its distal part; without pars dilatata.
• Sperm may be present throughout the uterus, it is stored in the pars dilatata oviductus (functional spermatheca); small numbers may be encapsulated in the slender part of the oviduct. Proximal part of both uteri forming a poorly defined ovejector.
• Vagina 43 (40-46) ,urn long, extending inward to 49-55% of the corr.esponding body width.
• Vulva a transverse slit.

Male:

•  Similar to females in most respects except for sexual characters. Body more curved in posterior region.
• Odontostyle base less clearly forked than in females.
• Tail with slightly concave ventral side; with 2-3 caudal pores at each side and one adana! pore at each side or at one side of tail.
• Reproductive system typical for genus, with 4-5 ejaculatory glands; 60-64 copulatory muscles and ten (4 + 6) accessory copulatory muscles; 10-11 ventromedian supplements and 6-8 subventral body pores in the region of the copulatory muscles.
• Spicules stout, ventrally curved; lateral guiding pieces rod-shaped.
