Cryptops ( Trigonocryptops ) gigas Kraepelin, 1903 Material examined. Cameroon : Mamfe , Mamfediu , 450, 10/6/1933 (2215: 321 m ), Percy Sladen Expedition , leg. I. T . Sanderson, 1 ex. , BMNH ?. ( Fig. 2 ) . Type locality. Cameroon ( German West Africa ) ( Minelli et al . 2006 ) . General distribution. West-Central Tropical Africa: Cameroon ( CM ) ( Minelli et al . 2006 ). Remarks. A specimen from Cameroon is assigned to the only Cryptops ( Trigonocryptops ) species described from that country that shares its nearly complete paramedian sutures on the cephalic plate, though the difference in size between the specimens ( 30 mm in the NHM specimen versus 80 mm in the holotype of C . ( T. ) gigas ), coupled with the absence of the ultimate leg pair in the latter, makes comparison imperfect. The NHM specimen has 12 saw teeth on the ultimate leg tibia and two on tarsus 1. Distal spinose processes are present on the inner side of the ultimate leg prefemur, the outer side of the femur, and on both sides of the tibia. Paramedian sutures are incomplete (present anteriorly) on T1, confined to the pretergite of T2, and complete from TT3–20.
