with the tip slightly enlarged, four each side projecting 
beyond abdomen, and three or four others each side 
toward tip. Cephalothorax with two elongate, incnrved 
plates (fig. 7), broadest before tip where they almost 
meet, tip broad, concave, the onter point more prominent, 
each plate bears a long, roughened, stout bristle from 
middle of the tip ; tip of head with a short, curved bristle 
each side; at base of the cephalothorax a fairly broad 
transverse area is delimited and from each upper corner 
arises the subbasal bristle, enlarged at tip; each seta is 
nearly as long as this bristle, clavate at tip; each first 
tectopedium is enlarged and projects laterally, with a 
sharp outer point anteriorly. 
Legs slender, fairly short, joints but little swollen, three 
equal claws ; first legs about length of body, patella nearly 
one-lialf of tibia, but few hairs, a long one at tip of tibia 
above, one, nearly as long, from tarsus before middle, else- 
where but few. short hairs; second and third legs hardly 
width of body; the fourth legs scarcely reach the tip of 
body. 
On the under side are three parallel cross-bars ; one at 
base of first coxae, one at base of second coxae, the third, 
more curved passing behind third coxae and reaching 
nearly to fourth coxae ; in the middle this cross-bar is con- 
fluent with the curved bar from fourth coxae, which touches 
almost the half of genital aperture ; the latter is a little 
longer than broad, scarcely truncate behind. 
The anal aperture is twice as long as the genital and 
situate about one and one-fourth its length behind the 
genital aperture in the female, fully one and one-half its 
length behind in the male.
