_This species somewhat resembles the Australian C. brun- 
nert but is a little smaller and weaker. The forceps are much 
less strongly arcuate, and instead of one very prominent tooth 
there are two short but sharp ones: the sygidium is bifid in 
both, but in P. brunneri it is nearly parallel-sided, whereas in 
this species the sides are distinctly convex and obtuse 
angular 5 
It is described from a well-preserved and well-developed 
male in the Dohrn collection. Mr. Green has sent me a second 
male, also from Ceylon, which is smaller, and the forceps are 
somewhat malformed, and the teeth obsolete.
