Patella prolateral process strongly developed forming a single median spine. Chela internomedian carinae present, composed of large sparsely placed granules. Metasoma: segment I, lacking pronounced granules on its ventral aspect; segment II, with posterior granules on ventrolateral and ventrosubmedian carinae, and dorso-submedian carinae lacking posterior spiniform granules; V, with three pairs of spiniform granules on ventrolateral carinae. Anal arch anterior carinae composed of large, subconical teeth.
