No eyas, large, distinct ocular spots. 



Body large, broad, rather elliptic. 



Palps, cephalothorax and tergites dark brown, posterior half of ce- 

 phalothorax somewhat paler, sterni tes paler brown, legs and inter- 

 stitial parts of abdomen pale yellowish brown. 



Cephalothorax: posterior half nearly parallelsided, anterior half 

 rounded, slightly longer than broad, before the first transverse groove 

 distinctly and densely granulated, somewhat glossy, behind this groove 

 smooth and glossy ; two distinct transverse grooves, the anterior one 

 about in the middle, very strong, in the centrai part slightly convex; 

 fpom the middle of this transverse groove there is running (about 

 midway to the front margin) a longitudinal groove (on one specimen 

 there is on each side of this groove a roundish cavity, rather deep 

 and somewhat irregular, probably individuai or accidental); the po- 

 sterior transverse groove, much more indistinct, is also slightly convex 

 and placed about midway between the anterior one and the hinder 

 margin; the hairs strong, rather long, dentateci towards the extremity. 



Abdomen: upper surface glossy, minutely shagreened, first and 

 last tergite entire, the rest divided longitudinally by a fine line, along 

 the hinder and the lateral margins with hairs as on cephalothorax, 

 on the last somites some longer ones intermixed. Sternites divided 

 except the last one. 



Palps long ami robust, about 1 i 2 times as long as the body, this 

 being, however, very much contracted; trochanter, fìngers and the 

 lower surface of the rest of the articles glossy, the other parts of the 

 palps are more or less opaque, especiall^y the upper and outer side 

 of the hand; trochanter smooth on the upper surface, even the pro- 

 tuberance, the rest somewhat granulated, femur coarsely and irregu- 

 larlv, transversally striate on the sAvell of the upper surface, on the 

 other parts more or less granulated, tibia striate to nearly smooth 

 except the inner side, that is granulated, hand opaque and granulated 

 on the upper and the broad outer surface, on the other parts striate 

 to nearly smooth, fingers more or less granulated. Hairs are abundant 

 and densely situated, especially on the protuberance of tibia; they 

 are long and partly minutely dentated, on the fìngers some longer ones 

 intermixed. Trochanter stalked, a little longer than. broad, the inner 

 side slightly convex, behind with a rather strong, rounded tubercle, 

 on the upper surface with a very strong, conical protuberance. Femur 

 stalked, a little more than twice as long as broad, the inner side 

 nearly straight, behind strongly widened at the base and at the ex- 

 tremity, the outer side slightly convex, femur thus being nearly of the 

 sawe width throughout; on the upper surface there is a moderately 

 high, longitudinal swell, femur becoming, on account of this swell, a
