- With ocelli.......................................................................................... 3
2 Adults with 28 body segments, gonopods with less pronounced posterior branches, inner basal parts of gonopods with structural field covered by small protuberances; coxal processes on 9th legs straight, elongated with slim projection on the apex oriented anteriorly............................................................................ H. cavernicola
- Adults with 30 body segments, gonopods completely with smooth surface structure and two elongated sword-like well separated posterior branches; 9th legs with coxal processes short and broad resembling elk horns armed with denticles on anterior edges; (female vulvae with medial and two elongated lateral postvulval processes).........................
