rather stout; femora stout, strongly but not abruptly clavate, each armed with a large tooth at distal third, hind pair reaching to or slightly beyond hind margin of fourth ventrite; tibiae slightly compressed, slightly sinuous in outline, with a fine dorsal carina, without a distinct apical mucro, but witha TODO minute vestige of one on hind tibiae of male; tarsi with segment 2about as long as1, trapezoidal, 3 about as long as 2, about twice as broad as long, deeply bilobed,4 TODO projecting for about half its length beyond apex of 3, claws deeply and strongly cleft.

with prosternum plain before globose coxae, distance between fore margin and coxae about equal to that between fore and mid coxae, fore coxae practically contiguous, cavities extremely narrowly separated, almost confluent; mesosternum with intercoxal process sloping strongly ventro-caudad, narrowing posteriorly, roughly subtriangular, its apex about half as broad as a coxa; side pieces distinct; metasternum between mid and hind coxae about as long as breadth of a mesocoxa, episternum broad, suture distinct.

This is a rather aberrant genus because of its lack of distinct apical mucrones on the tibiae. It has, in part, this character together with the 6-segmented funicle in common with
