Cephalic segment cordate, margin rounded; antennae 18-jointed, basilar segment rather 

 short ; mandibles and basilar tooth large ; labium convex ; dental plates small, short, 

 transverse ; teeth numerous, at least sixteen, sometimes more, very small, obtuse, and 

 almost obliterated ; posterior pair of legs moderate, first and second joints equal ; 

 basilar joint subquadrate, flattened on the superior surface, with three minute spines, 

 besides the angular one, on the internal margin, two of which are slightly approxi- 

 mated ; angular spine large, bifid ; inferior surface convex, toothless. Lateral anal 

 appendages short, obtuse, with the apex very slightly developed. Preanal scale elon- 

 gate, quadrate, with the posterior margin slightly rounded. 



I have great pleasure in naming this species in honour of the late General 

 Hardwick, who was the first to distinguish it, and who has given an excellent 

 figure of it in his drawings in the library of the British Museum, vol, 1,002, 



89, 22.
