This species possesses distinctly serrated capillary setae. The unique morphological characters of this species are presence of four serrated chaetae, which are referred as special chaetae 1-4. They possess important species-level characteristics such as serrated capillaries, less-spaced teeth and barbs downwards; in addition chaeta 2 is crooked in the middle.
