  female, 
  very 
  deeply 
  punctato-striate 
  and 
  plainly 
  costate 
  in 
  both 
  

   sexes, 
  but 
  with 
  the 
  punctures 
  more 
  irregular 
  in 
  the 
  discoidal 
  part 
  

   in 
  the 
  male 
  ; 
  pygidium 
  somewhat 
  closely 
  punctured 
  in 
  the 
  middle 
  

   and 
  sub-scrobiculate 
  laterally 
  ; 
  pectus 
  moderately 
  hairy 
  ; 
  anterior 
  

   tibiae 
  bi-dentate 
  outwardly 
  ; 
  inner 
  claw 
  of 
  anterior 
  and 
  intermediate 
  

   tarsi 
  cleft 
  in 
  both 
  the 
  sexes. 
  In 
  this 
  species 
  the 
  three 
  teeth 
  of 
  the 
  

   maxillae 
  are 
  not 
  bifid, 
  and 
  the 
  shape 
  of 
  the 
  genital 
  armature 
  does 
  

   not 
  at 
  all 
  resemble 
  that 
  of 
  the 
  other 
  South 
  African 
  species.

  I 
  have 
  seen 
  three 
  males 
  of 
  this 
  species, 
  easily 
  recognisable 
  by 
  

   their 
  elongate, 
  sub-parallel 
  shape 
  ; 
  in 
  one 
  of 
  them 
  the 
  claws 
  are 
  

   partly 
  broken 
  ; 
  in 
  the 
  second 
  the 
  inner 
  claw 
  of 
  the 
  intermediate 
  

   tarsi 
  is 
  distinctly 
  although 
  not 
  deeply 
  cleft, 
  but 
  in 
  the 
  third 
  example 
  

   this 
  claw 
  is 
  simple.
