Segments of male abdomen free; third segment reaching coxae. Description.—Carapace about four-fifths as long as broad; pos- terior median portion almost level and bordered by a blunt ridge from which the anterior and lateral por- tions slope downward. Cardiac and mesogastric regions in part demarcated. Surface short-hairy, unequally granulate. Front bimarginate, deeply grooved; inner angle of orbit a subacute tooth. Three flattened, upturned, pointed and subequal antero-lateral teeth. Margins of teeth and orbit denticulate. Postero- Fio. 3.—trizocaucinus denta- lateral margins subparallel.
