 broad, closely covered with very prominent subspiniform granules, 

 the larger of which are 01 

 mm. in height and O-Of) mm. 

 in diameter. Cephalon with 

 tlie frontal border rounded, 

 about three times as wide as 

 long, and equal in length to 

 the first segment of the 

 peraeon ; the latter is equal 

 to the two segments follow- 

 ing ; the fourth to the 

 seventh segments are sub- 

 equal. The pleon is about 

 equal to the six preceding 

 segments combined. The 

 median process on the pen- 

 ultimate segment is small, 

 and but little prominent. 

 The sutural lines indicating 

 the coalesced segments are 

 obscured by the peculiar 

 character of the granulation. 

 The terminal segment is 

 large, convex, and acutely 

 produced at the extremity, 

 with a small semicircular 

 notch, which is not visible 

 from above ; the sides are 

 converging. The first epi-

The second to the seventh segments of the peraeon are each orna- 

 mented with a single transverse row of granules, and the bases of 

 the epimeral processes are marked by two or three blunt, conical 

 granules ; the rest of the upper surface of the body is studded 

 with scattered granules and short, stiff setse.
