Two males and one female. 



The granulation of the merus joints of the ambulatory legs 

 differs considerably in the two sexes. In the male the lower 

 edges of the merus joints are finely granular, the space between 

 and also the posterior lateral surface is punctate and very dis- 

 tantly granulose. In the female the inferior edges of the last 

 two pairs of legs are almost denticulate, the posterior surface and 

 the proximal half of the lower are very closely granulate, on the 

 upper posterior surface the granules are transversely seriate.
