With large dorsal spine on anterior part of vertex, directed in an about 45-degree angle forward; in front of it the vertex resuming very shortly its dorsal contour and then dropping perpendicularly, forming a minute and more or less square cariniform fastigium (if not the vertex spine itself is considered as the fastigium). Below this structure, between the antennal sockets, there is a tiny and obtusely conical fastigium of the frons, in dorsal view (which is slightly obstructed by the vertex spine) not projecting beyond the sockets.

. Fore coxae with spine. Fore femora on inner ventral margin with two spines; genicular lobes with long spines, the internal spine considerably longer than the external one. Tympana of fore tibiae blackened except for ventro-caudal margin, dorsal margin of tibiae at lower part of ear region with two curved spines, the internal one twice as long as the external one. Ventral margin with a few very small spines. Middle femora on ventral outer margin with two curved spines, and sometimes with a third and much smaller spine (on left middle femur of the female specimen); genicular lobes with spines, the external one twice as large as the internal one. Middle tibiae dorsally and close to the base on the outer margin with two curved spines, coinciding with two much smaller spines on the inner margin.
