Patella with the trichobothria d1 and d2 on the dorsal surface; i on the internal surface, 15-17 V on the ventral surface and only 22 trichobothria on the external surface (6 et, 7 est, 2 em, 2 esb, 5 eb). Chela-hand with an unusual trichobothrial number on the V series of 8-9 on the ventral surface, Dt on the dorsal surface, Db on the external surface, ib and it on the internal surface, five Et, Est, Esb and three trichobothria in the Eb series on the external surface. The annular ring is strongly marked. Pectines with 8-9 teeth in females and 8-8 in the only known male; fulcra reduced.

Morphology. Carapace strongly granular, furrows moderately to very deep. Median eyes anterior to the centre of carapace; three pairs of lateral eyes, the third pair only slightly smaller than the first two. Sternum pentagonal, longer than wide. Genital operculum formed by two semi-oval plates in female. Tergites strongly granulated; VII with four moderately marked carinae. Pectinal tooth count 8-8 (9-9) in females, 8-8 in male; fulcra reduced. Sternites smooth and shiny; VII with four weak carinae and some granulations.

Telson vesicle almost smooth, with some isolated granulations. Pedipalps: femur with dorsal internal, dorsal external, ventral internal and ventral external carinae moderately to strongly marked; tegument moderately granular. Patella with dorsal internal, ventral internal, dorsal external, ventral external and external carinae strongly marked; several spinoid granules present on internal aspect, two of which are very conspicuous; the interno-ventral being larger than the interno-dorsal granule; tegument moderately granular. Chela with dorsal marginal, external secondary, ventral internal and ventral carinae moderately to strongly marked; other carinae moderately marked; tegument granulated dorsally and ventrally. Chelal fingers with two longitudinal series of granules, almost fused, and a few inner and outer accessory granules. Chelicerae dentition as illustrated in Figure 3; four/five teeth on ventro-internal face of movable finger. Trichobothriotaxy type C, as presented in Figs 6-12.
