The eye tubercle just in front of the o\'igers, projects nearly 

 straight up in the unmounteci specimen. It bears four eyes and is 

 pointed. One large hair and several smaller ones project from it. 



The proboscis is two-jointed, the basal joint is narrower and 

 cylindrical. The terminal joint is swollen in the middle and tapers 

 at the tip, and tapers a little less at the base. The proboscis is bent 

 at the base of the terminal joint and the tip points backwards under 

 the animal. 



In the freshly killed animal the legs and all the leg-like append- 

 ages were easily seen from above, but in the slide the ovigers did not 

 show from above nor do they in the figure. 



The chelifori are three-jointed, the terminal joint is small, slightly 

 lobed but not chelate. The other segments are of nearly the same 

 length but the basal one is thicker. There are a number of long 

 spine-like hairs on the middle joint and one large one on the basal 

 joint. 



The palpi are ten-jointed, the two basal joints small, the five 

 terminal joints are also small and bear fine hairs. 



The ovigers are nine, possibly ten, jointed, rather larger than 

 the first two appendages and quite a little longer than the body. 

 In the fresh specimen this appendage looks much like a leg from 

 above. There are two claws, the terminal larger. The terminal 

 joints bear a number of complicated spines and knobs as shown in 

 the figure. 



The legs are broad at the body and taper towards the claws. 

 The basal joint is provided with a single large spine. The narrower 

 second joint bears two spines. The third joint is smaller and bears 

 no spines. The fourth joint is usually about twice the length of the 

 last and bears five spines at the end. The fifth joint bears several 

 spines on the shaft as shown in the figure. The sixth joint is about 

 as long as the fifth and bears spines on the shaft as shown in the 

 figure of the four legs. The last two joints bear only a few smaller 

 hairs. There is one slightly hooked claw on each leg. 



The wide lateral processes of the body, the first angular joint of 

 the legs, the complicated spines of the oviger and the different ar- 

 rangement of spines on appendages and bociy clearly separate this 

 species from the other members of the genus.
