 strongest on the posterior margins of peraeon and pleon segments, 

 glabrous. Head triangular, front produced into a blunt rostrum, 

 eyes oval, their distance apart equal in $ to the length, in $ to 

 the width of eye, 2 small ocelli between eyes. Anterior margin of 

 1st peraeon segment bisinuate, in $ all peraeon segments are 

 subequal, in 2 1st, 4th and 7th are subequal, 2nd and 3rd shorter, 

 5th and 6th longer, postero-lateral angles rounded, not produced. 

 Epimera narrow, postero-lateral angles subacute in $ , acute in

 and fringed with plumose setae, a very shallow and obscure median 

 longitudinal groove.

 on inner apex, 3rd joint a little longer, flagellum equal to or a little 

 longer than 3rd peduncular joint, 5-jointed, 5th joint minute, a
