 Female. Head nearly three times broader than its length. Frons 

 about one-sixth the width of the head, and about three times longer 

 than wide, parallel-sided, grey slightly tinged with yellowish, without 

 frontal callus ; two distinct longitudinal depressions at the middle part, 

 near lateral margins, extending to the ocelligerous tubercle ; an irregular 

 transverse depression about the centre of the frons, and a fine .longitu-

 pubescence on the frons very few and inconspicuous, greyish. Vertex 

 grey, bearing a large somewhat triangular ocelligerous tubercle which

 brown, bearing rather broad but small dark -brown sucker-flaps ; 

 pubescence very spare and inconspicuous on the lower surface, on the 

 upper surface almost entirely absent, on the sucker-flaps rather .con-
