terga with large pale oval spot on each side; prozona and legs lighter, 
nearly white; front of head light brown with four pairs of irregularly-

Metazona of anterior segments with prominent lateral knobs formed 
by two enlarged ridges, the dorsolateral of which has a seta at front end 
and is subtended by a larger oblique ridge with seta at posterior end; on 
segments 3-5 the lateral knobs project upward slightly above level of 
middorsum, on following segments knobs become progressively smaller 
and are not present on segments 25-29. Ornamentation of metaterga 
greatly reduced, middorsal region smooth, a few indistinct elongated 
tubercles occur near base of dorsolateral ridge.
