48 On two new Genera of Scorpions. 
thickly granular below and at the sides, the granulation 
obscuring the keels, the inferior median keels, however, 
marked by stronger and sharper granules, the upper surface 
much more feebly granular, the keels very feeble on the first 
but defined by larger granules ; the keels absent on the third, 
which has its margins rounded and the position of the supe- 
rior and supero-lateral keels marked by a larger granule 
posteriorly ; the fourth segment without keels and almost 
without granules, but roughened by close-set coarse punctures, 
finely granular only in the excavation of the upper surface ; 
the fifth segment also without keels, but marked with coarse, 
close-set, sometimes anastomosing punctures, granular on the 
posterior third of its lower surface, and finely so in the poste- 
rior portion of the superior excavation, the anal border lobate 
at the sides, granular beneath; the vesicle moderately large, 
coarsely punctured beneath, the aculeus strong and curved. 
Tail and vesicle thickly and irregularly hairy beneath. 
Palpi slender ; humerus very weakly granular along the 
feebly developed keels ; brachiuwm without keels, very slightly 
granular in front, the rest smooth ; manus rounded, narrower 
than the brachium, without keels and without granules, the 
length of the “ hand-back ” much greater than the width of 
the hand; dactyli long, curved, and slender, the length of 
the movable dactylus nearly twice as great as the length of 
the hand. 
Legs with weakly granular femora, coxe quite smooth. 
Pectines not projecting to the end of the fourth coxe, fur- 
nished with fourteen similar teeth. 
Measurements in millimetres.—Total length 30, length of 
cephalothorax 2°5, of tail 11:5, of first two segments 2°8, of 
fourth 2, of fifth 3; width of the first 1°6, of the fifth 1°4, of 
the vesicle 1; length of humerus 2°3, of brachium 2°5, of 
hand-back 1:2, of movable dactylus 2°5; width of hand ‘8. 
A single specimen probably from India or Ceylon, but 
without special locality. It was found in a bottle in Count 
Keyserling’s collection together with a young example of 
Scorpio Swammerdami—a species which is undoubtedly 
Indian and Ceylonese. 
The only known species with which this can be confounded 
is Charmus laneus of Karsch. But it certainly differs in 
colour, in having the last abdominal sternite coarsely and not 
“ subtiliter” granular, the tail certainly carinate in part, and 
the fourth segment punctured and not granular.
