Tibia IV without spines on dorsal surface and with long bristles on prolaterodorsal surface ( Fig. 216 D ). Many robust spines on the ventral surface of the tarsi III and IV; And at prolateral and retrolateral surfaces of tarsi and metatarsi I and II. Carapace reddish-brown, with a conspicuous yellowish triangular region in the ocular region ( Fig. 215 B ).
