$. Colour yellowish brown; legs paler yellow, hand reddish 

 brown with black fingers. Carapace granular laterally, entirely 

 smooth above except for a few granules in the anteocular groove. 

 Terga finely granular laterally. Tail a little more than two and a 

 half times as long as the carapace, the inferior keels on segments 

 1-3 quite smooth, those on 4th at most slightly rugose ; superior 

 and superior-lateral keels of all the segments granular or weakly 

 denticulated ; superior surface of 1st granular, of 2nd less so ; 

 width of 1st exceeding length of 3rd, almost equal to that of 4th ; 

 5th about twice as long as wide. ChelcB'. humerus granular above 

 at least on its basal half, smooth below ; bruchium almost entirely 

 smooth, its anterior side weakly granular above, more coarsely 

 below ; Ituwl wide, its width in adult exceeding length of 3rd and 

 4th caudal segments, inner edge smooth, upper surface smooth, 

 finely reticulated, a few low tubercles just above the keel of tin- 

 underhand and at the base of the immovable digil ; external 

 [portion of uppersurface rising vertically above keel of underhand : 

 thickness ><i band at the front equal to length of 4th caudal 

 segment. Lower side of hand granular distslly, scarcely crested.

Nearly allied to the Bast-African species /'. cavimanus, but 

 differing in the following characters : the carapace in the female is 

 longer thtn the lib and 5th caudal segmeuts< and the basal width 

 of the immovable finger is onlj aboul half the length of its free 

 jin ; whereas in P,cavimanus\ I the carapace is shorter than 

 ltd and 5th caudal segments, and the basal width of the immovable
