Members of this genus have the claws bent at right angles and 

 distinctly enlarged near the distal third. The pulvilli are very long, 

 straight, and the flagellate antennal segments are each provided with 

 a long stem in both sexes. The typical species has 10 segments in 

 the female and 14 in the male, those of the latter eccentric and 

 ornamented with crenulate whorls. The terminal antennal seg- 

 ments of the female, as illustrated by Kieffer, are subconical, with 

 several irregular subbasal whorls of short, stout setae and sub- 

 apically a pair of stout, chitinous, reniform appendages on either
