Diagnosis: The tritosternum is 

 not covered by coxae i. The mar- 

 ginal plate is continuous anteri- 

 orly but is distinct from the dorsal 

 plate. The posterior region of the 

 dorsal plate is indistinctly sepa- 

 rated from the rest of the dorsal 

 plate by a suture. The stigmata 

 are located opposite coxae iii. 

 Grooves for the legs are well de- 

 veloped.
