. Sexual dimorphism in proportions of pedipalps is probably not noticeable. Although the female is not known, morphology of other species makes this assumption fairly safe.

: The entire surface of the metasoma is finely granulate and hirsute. The first to fourth segments bear eight carinae of which the ventral are partly smooth and the dorsal consist of conspicuous but sparse pointed granules. The fifth segment bears five carinae. All carinae on this segment consist of pointed granules. Apart from the just noted carinae, all metasomal segments bear two additional carinae present only in the anterior half on the fifth segment and the posterior halves of the first to fourth segments. The first and second segments are wider than long, whereas the remaining segments are longer than wide. The telson is hirsute and bulbous, dorsally without granules and ventrally with four rows of granules; the vesicle is longer than the aculeus.

: The femur has three inconspicuous granulose carinae with spaces between them also bearing granules. The patella has four smooth carinae, is ventraly smooth, dorsally and externally slightly tuberculate, without granules or tubercles on the internal surface. The dorsal surface of the manus is covered by rounded granules. The chela is slightly lobiform and strongly hirsute, and its internal surface is tuberculate, with two carinae. The movable fingers bear six straight rows of granules.
