as usual, the ridge largely composed of a continuous row of tubercles 

 which, large behind, decrease cephalad and disappear caudad of level 

 of first sulcus, the row of tubercles continued also across caudal 

 border. A row of two or three tubercles in a second low ridge occurs 

 just mesad of the outer rim a little caudad of widest part of carapace. 

 The cones, immediately in front of last sulcus and near middle line, 

 are rather low, distally rounded. Area between last two sulci with 

 numerous larger and smaller tubercles or granules, the area between 

 the second and third w4th fewer and mostly very small granules and 

 the area between the first and second with still fewer scattered and 

 inconspicuous granules, (Plate 2, fig. 7). 



First three tergites of abdomen with a continuous transverse row of 

 conspicuous tubercles. Anal scutum without processes; rather ob- 

 scurely granular. 



First three pairs of coxae proximally parallel, the first two bending 

 moderately cephalad from near middle of length, the third transverse 

 for whole length ; second coxae scarcely one fifth longer than the third ; 

 first coxae along midventral surface with a row of distinct granules, 

 the second with a few almost obsolete granules and the third smooth. 

 Fourth coxae very strongly enlarged and directed ectocaudad as usual; 

 terminating on dorsoectal side in a stout process which has a shorter 

 prong on the ventral side beyond middle of length; on mesal side of 

 distal end with a shorter stout process which is toothed on its ectal 

 side. 



Spiracles moderate, distinct. 



First article of mandibles strongly narrowed toward base; distal 

 half with a strongly and abruptly elevated hump on dorsal surface. 

 Distal article with fewer hairs in front and distad, (Plate 2, fig. 8). 



Pedipalps when extended shorter than carapace; not crossed. 

 Trochanter roundly elevated and smooth above; ventrally with a 

 single conical tubercle bearing distally a bristle. Femur a little 

 complanate beneath and bearing few low granules from which hairs 

 arise; dorsally also with scattered low granule-like elevations at bases 

 of some of hairs. Patella smooth. Tibia not compressed; along 

 mesoventral edge with two similar but stouter spines with proximal 

 portions thicker as usual. Tarsus along mesoventral edge with two 

 subequal spines of usual type and along ectoventral edge with two 

 similar large spines and between these a much smaller spine and a 

 similar one between the distal large spine and the base of the claw. 

 Claw much shorter than tarsus, conspicuouslv curved, (Plate 3, fig. 

 1,2).
