Body strongly convex, glabrous. Head nearly completely immersed 

 in 1st peraeon segment, anterior margin not strongly convex, 5 trans-

 grooves, the last groove in each case having its anterior margin 

 minutely crenulate. Side-plates on segments 2-4 quadrangular, each 

 with 1 oblique ridge, on segments 5-7 slightly produced, with subacute
