The bead is anteriorly produced and depressed, but 
not incurved. The segments of the body are not more 
than half the length of those of the anterior half of the 
tail. The eyes are round, and not very large. The 
superior antennm are longer than the inferior ; the fla- 
gellum is not so long as the peduncle. The inferior 
antennae are more slender than the superior, hut the 
peduncle reaches almost as far as that of the superior ; 
the flagellum is scarcely longer than the last joint of the 
peduncle. The first pair of legs are rather small, and 
the infero-distal extremity of the wrist scarcely reaches 
to half the length of the hand ; the hand is long and 
narrow, the palm, fringed with small hairs, extends the 
entire length of the joint, and is subparallel with the 
upper margin, which is produced beyond the point where 
the finger articulates with the hand ; the finger is long
