facial outline, which is arcuate with a slight sinuosity at the ocellus; 

 facial forks moderately separated, hardly diverging ventrad; eyes 

 considerably shorter than the depth of the infra-ocular portion of the 

 genffi, trigono-reniform in basal outline, moderately prominent when 

 seen from the dorsum. Pronotum tectate in section, the median 

 carina well elevated, in longitudinal section regularly arcuate with the 

 very faintest interhumeral flattening; cephalic margin of the pro- 

 notum almost rectangulate, the immediate angle very fine, reaching 

 to the base of the fastigial carina of the vertex; humeral angles not 

 at all prominent, rounded very broad obtuse-angulate ; apex reaching

to the base of the genicular arches of the caudal femora, in general 

 form acute, the immediate apex blunted, slightly subulate; surface 

 of the dorsum with a number of very weak longitudinal lines, these 

 most numerous in the humeral region and all slightly latero-caudad 

 in general trend; lateral lobes with the greatest dorsal length slightly 

 greater than the greatest depth, with several glabrous areas dorsad, 

 caudal margin oblique-truncate, ventro-caudal angle acute, humeral 

 sinus very slight, rectangulate. Tegmina very small, 

 in length not exceeding that of the ventral margin of \ / 

 the lateral lobes of the pronotum, elongate-lanceolate, 

 the greatest exposed width contained nearly four times 

 in the length of the same, apex very narrowly rounded. 

 Cephalic and median limbs not at all lobate. Caudal 

 femora nearly equal to three-fourths of the length of 

 the pronotum, robust, moderately inflated, the greatest 

 width contained slightly more than twice in the length 

 of the same, pagina very finely sculptured; caudal 

 tibiee moderately robust, slightly expanded distad. 

 General color seal brown with the dorsum largely
