Snbadnlt Male. Antennidre only fonr-jointed, bnt the two pro.ximal joints are considerably, 

 the third joint somewhat, thicker than in the female. The abdomen pro]M)rtionateIy somewhat longer

Remarks. L.iiirniiis differs from all preceding species of this genns b\- having the first an- 

 tennnlar joint shorter in proportion to its depth and to the length of second joint; in tliis respect it 

 agrees with some of the following species. From L. hnii^iri mis^ with wliich it agrees in having seventh 

 joint with claw of second and third pairs of legs conspicuonsh' shorter than si.xth joint, it differs in 

 the antennnlte, in having no ventral abdominal tnbercles, shorter and stonter legs, the chela 

 liroader, etc.
