Carapace convex in both directions, covered with miuute granules 

 interspersed with punctures of much larger size. la some specimens 

 there are a few transverse lines composed of larger granules. Regions 

 fairly distinct, depressions slight, and occasionally in part obliterated. 

 Anterolateral teeth slightly elevated, anterior margins truncate. The 

 three i:)osterior teeth are pointed. First tooth separated from the post- 

 ocular tooth by a rather deep sinus, which, however, does not divide 

 the coalesced tooth to its base. 



Front produced, thin, slightly depressed, with a median fissure, each 

 lobe slightly emarginate, giving the front a somewhat four-lobed ap- 

 pearance. Median lobes more i)roduced ; lateral lobes faint. 



Sjiace between the two lissures of the upper orbital margin slightly 

 rounded, interrupting the regular curve of the orbit. External hiatus 

 widely V-shaped and deep. The inner suborbital angle forms a prom- 

 inent tooth. A rather deep sinus divides this from the lobe which 

 reaches to the external fissure. Lower orbital margin produced. 



Abdomen of the male wider than in herbstii, outline concave, penulti- 

 mate segment widest at its distal end. Coxa3 of fifth pair of feet in 

 broad contact with third abdominal segment. Seventh segment of 

 sternum shows but little.
