Adults weakly sclerotized, small, idiosomal length 235260 µm. Anterior margin of tectum denticulate, sometimes weakly triramous. Movable digit of chelicera with two strong teeth on apical half and a row of 6 or 7 smaller closely-set teeth on proximal half, the latter apposing similar teeth proximally on fixed digit.
