 the dorsum (Eastern species have two spines or tubercles). It is only known 

 from San Diego.

 of abdomen finely granulate, and with six transverse rows of larger granules.

 with two projections below, several small ones above; fifth joint with two 

 projections below. Length 2 to 3 mm. From jMarin County, and Mt. Shasta.
