Coloration basically pale yellowish brown, moderately spotted with light to medium brown all over the body and appendages; tergites without clearly defined longitudinal dark bands; pedipalp hand essentially immaculate, fingers light brown with yellowish tips, metasomal segment V and telson only slightly more reddish. Pedipalps chelae with hand very robust and weakly carinate; fixed and movable fingers with 10 and 11 principal rows of denticles, respectively, basal lobe/notch combination moderate. Sternite V with the smooth patch very large, much wider than long; III–VI without carinae and with spiracles elongate oval. Metasoma long, slender, and slightly swollen distally, with 10-8-8-8-5 complete to essentially complete, weakly serrate to granulose carinae; segments II–IV dorsolateral carinae without enlarged terminal denticles; all intercarinal spaces coriaceous. Telson elongate oval, vesicle essentially smooth, with vestigial subaculear tubercle, and much longer than aculeus. Pectines with 9–11 teeth, basal middle lamella round and moderately enlarged.

Chelicerae pale yellow, manus reticulate with dark brown all over except basally, but with pattern becoming denser and darker distally, fingers irregularly infuscate. Pedipalp femur and patella densely spotted with light brown on all surfaces except ventral, which it is essentially immaculate; chela with hand essentially immaculate (only a few very faint traces of pale brown spots are traceable externally), fingers irregularly infuscate with light brown, somewhat denser and darker on basal half. Carapace symmetrically marbled with medium brown (most spots are interconnected), with the interocular triangle more densely spotted; eyes and ocular tubercles black. Tergites densely spotted with medium brown, but without clearly defined pattern of longitudinal bands; I–VI with lateral margins pale immaculate and posterior margin with nine pale, round to oval spots (one over the median longitudinal carina and four on each side). Appendicular coxae, sternum, and genital opercula yellowish brown, immaculate. Pectines immaculate whitish, with basal portion and basal plate somewhat darker due to heavier sclerotization. Sternites very sparsely spotted with medium brown, V with the smooth patch conspicuously lighter, immaculate whitish to translucent. Legs sparsely spotted with medium to light brown on all surfaces except ventral, which it is essentially immaculate. Metasomal segments IV–I and telson with base color slightly darker, orange; dorsal surface very sparsely spotted with medium to light brown, lateral surfaces moderately spotted medium to light brown (denser on distal third of I–III and all over IV–V), ventral surface with the same pattern as preceding, but also with a thin dark stripe all along midline (more sharply defined on II–III); telson immaculate orange, aculeus light yellow basally and reddish brown distally.

Carination essentially absent: the on-ly definable carinae are the superciliary (strongly granulose to subgranulose), and the irregularly fused central medians and posterior medians (moderately granulose). Furrows: anterior median, median ocular, central median, posterior median and posterior marginal fused, wide and moderately to very deep, posterior laterals long, narrow and shallow, other furrows indistinct. Tegument coriaceous, densely covered by glossy granules of medium to small size, especially on each side of the median furrows.
