Moderately convex, the carapace marked with numerous fine 

 interrupted transverse lines, postfrontal sinus usually distinct. 

 Frontal lobes moderately prominent, obtuse, and rounded, the 

 lateral lobes (in the typical form) scarcely projecting beyond the 

 median ones. Sides of the carapace with a series of shallow pits 

 bordered with tufts or lines of short hairs, forming a linear sub- 

 marginal striated area. Eye-peduncles slender, and usually ex- 

 tending a little beyond the end of the basal joint of the anten- 

 nules, which, like the antennaB, are short and clothed with longish 

 hairs. Anterior legs elongated, and clothed with rather long 

 hairs, which are densest on the inner margins, and show a ten- 

 dency to disposition in oblique series on the upper and outer 

 margins of the last two joints ; the last joint is similar to the 

 preceding, and tapers somewhat to its extremity, which is clothed 

 with long hair. The second, third, and fourth pairs of legs are 

 robust ; the terminal joint of the second and third pairs but slightly 

 falcate, its distal half short, broad, and obtusely rounded at the 

 extremity ; that of the fourth pair narrow and straight. E-ami of 

 the appendages of the penultimate postabdominal segm.ent ovate 

 and unequal, the inner the larger. Terminal segment elongated, 

 oblong-lanceolate.
