Abbreviations: (s) solenomere, (prfp) prefemoral process, (ta) tarsal lobe, (tip) tibial process, (tl1) basal lobe of tarsus. Scale bar = 1 mm. distinct. Telocoxite narrowly rounded apically, with lateral bulge about midway along length, and narrow lobe distal to this ( Figs 85, 87 ). Description: Size : There are 60 body segments.
