Palp fairly robust. Anterior part of ventral surface of trochanter considerably pro- 
duced so as to form a sharp angular projection. Femur very deep (high). Patella a little 
more than twice as long as deep. Claw about half the length of the upper margin of the 
tarsus (Fig. 1). 
First leg much longer than the body ; its femur considerably longer than the tibia. 
Foot very distinctly shorter than tibia, and about thirteen and a half times as long as 
deep; second metatarsal segment almost as long as the united length of the first five 
(proximal) segments of the tarsus; distal tarsal segment about equal in length to the sum 
of the lengths of the three proximal segments and rather more than half the length of the 
metatarsus (Fig. 2).
