Other two together, with a distinct prominence on the dorsal surface (Fig. 38 c). Femur and first tibia equal, second tibia the longest segment. Propodus nearly twice as long as tarsus and more than twice as long as the main claw. Auxiliary claws absent. Measurements (mm.) Length of proboscis Diameter of proboscis Length of trunk ...

Although the specimens are very small the genital pores are conspicuous in all the females. The largest specimen is the adult from MS 66, and it is quite probable that this female has the full number (29) of denticulate spines on the oviger for the species. II.
