always slightly hook-shaped while the telopodite in both hansonia and 

 separanda narrows gradually to a pointed tip. Differs from separanda 

 and plecta in that the portion of the telopodite just distal to the 

 cingulum is not noticeably larger than the portion just proximal to 

 the cingulum. Distinguished from eutypa ethotela by the absence of 

 a swelling just proximal to the distal end of the telopodite. 



Description: Length of holotype, 38 mm.; width, 9.8 mm.; length 

 of other males, 37-44 mm.; width, 9-11 mm.; length of females, 

 43-46 mm.; width, 10.5-12.5 mm. 



Collum ellipsoidal, edges gently curved, ends of paranota gently 

 rounded; paranotal swellings extremely weak; ridges of anterior edges 

 of paranota variable. 



Paranotal swellings become increasingly more noticeable from seg- 

 ments 2 and 3 on, but never becoming very strong. Paranota of 

 segment 9 and anterior segments squared at caudolateral corners; 

 paranota of segments 10, 11, and 12 showing very slight caiidad 

 production. 



Sternum of 3d pair of legs with very weak processes; processes 

 on sternum of 4th legs barely noticeable; sternum of 5th legs with 

 median gi'oove but no processes; sternum of 6th legs smooth. 



Coxal armatiu-e usually weak, rarely moderate. 



Male gonopods of medium size (about 1.91-2.03 mm. in telopodite 

 arc length and 1.8-2.02 mm. in arc width); sunple; curved mesiad, 

 then dorsad, then caudodorsad; extreme distal end bent to hook-like 

 appearance; cingidum located at point on arc most remote from body; 

 precingular portion but slightly longer than postcingular portion 

 (in some specimens subequal). Prefemoral spine moderate. 



Color dark brown above and on preanal scale ; caudolateral portions 

 of all paranota very light yellow, almost white; a median light spot 

 on posterior margin of each tergite; collum with two median light 

 spots, one on posterior margin and one on anterior margin; under- 

 parts tan; antennae dark brown, the last three articles darkest.
