Specimens in the Museum: 
1 {, Padang (examined by de Man 1880). 
This species closely resembles Sarm. fryatti, but besides by the width 
of the front exceeding half the distance between the external orbital 
angles, the carapace is everywhere smooth and shining, without any trace 
of hairs, and minutely punctate. The anterior margin of the front is 
regularly convex in dorsal view, with scarcely any trace of a median 
emargination; the upper border of the movable finger bears only two. 
very thick and blunt spines, and the walking legs are much more robust 
than in Sarm. fryatti, the meropodites being only twice as long as broad. 
The shape of the abdomen of the © is the same in both species.
