This specimen is uniformly colored, immaculate, the limbs 

 becoming paler distad. 



The fastigium of the vertex has the sulcus deepened into a 

 chamber, so that the fastigium forms a conchate projection. The 

 caudal femora are armed on the ventro-internal margin with a 

 single minute, median spine. The caudal metatarsus almost 

 equals the longest caudal tibial spur in length and is armed dorsad 

 with (one and two) minute, distal spines. The female subgenital 

 plate is, at its apex, produced in a very slender acute-angulate 

 projection.
