This genus is represented by a series 

 of species with short antennae and is 

 most easily recognized, especially in the 

 female, by the subapical, frequently thick 

 whorls of short, stout, occasionally re- 

 curved spines. These organs are less 

 apparent in the male, though rudiments 

 of a whorl may be seen in at least one 

 group. The type of this genus is C.
