Trunk fully segmented. Lateral processes separated by their diameters or slightly more, glabrous. Neck moderately short; large oviger implants at posterior, touching first lateral processes. Ocular tubercle as low rounded bump, without eyes; sensory papillae prominent. Proboscis long; slightly swollen cylinder just distal to midpoint; lips flat. Abdomen short, not as long as first coxae; distally downcurved to be almost vertical at tip, glabrous. Chelifores massive, glabrous, cylindrical scapes slightly longer than proboscis. Chelae curved inward; palms cylindrical, shorter than slender fingers. Movable finger with about 70 long and short teeth; slightly longer than immovable finger with 63 - 64 teeth uneven sizes. Palps slender; third segment only little shorter than second; fourth and fifth with 3 short distal setae; oviger of fourth segment curved, with small low lateral tubercle at about 0.3 its length; fifth segment longest, straight. Strigilis segments each successively smaller, armed with denticulate spines in the formula 15: 12: 10: 9; with a straight terminal claw the same length or slightly longer than the terminal segment, armed with 13 long slender teeth. Denticulate spines long, with 4 lateral lobes on each side. Legs long, glabrous; second tibiae the longest segment. Propodus only slightly longer than tarsus; both slightly curved, unarmed. Claw straight; about 0.75 length of tarsus. |
