Carapax somewhat convex, not areolate anteriorly, somewhat uneven 

 and short hairy; front emarginate; anterolateral margin very short, 

 four-toothed, posterior tooth minute, the others rather stout; infe- 

 rior orbital margin three-toothed. Anterior feet subequal, carpus 

 armed with a few large tubercles, which are naked and flattened, 

 between the tubercles hirsute, hand above with similar tubercles. 

 Posterior eight feet hirsute, fourth and fifth joints above, gibbous.

Length of carapax of female, three and one-fourth lines; greatest 

 breadth, four and one-fourth lines; ratio of length to breadth, 1:1-3. 

 The large, oblong, naked tubercles of the carpus lie along the surface, 

 and those above are only five or six in number. Three similar, but 

 more rounded, form the upper edge of the hand. The anterior part 

 of the carapax is covered with scattered hairs, which, however, may 

 disappear in larger specimens, if those under examination were young 

 individuals. On the carapax, a short distance from each of the two 

 prominent lateral teeth, there is a low tubercle. Of the three teeth 

 of the inferior orbital margin, the inner is large and flat, with a 

 rounded summit.
