Pedes setis validis f uscis vel nigris hirsuti et setis fulvo-rufulis multo longioribus conspersi, tarsis cunctis, metatarsis V paris usque ad tertiam partem basilarem, metatarsis 21 paris usque in medio, metatarsis posticis tantum ad apicem late et crebre nigro-cinereo-scopulatis. Tibia 1* paris apophysi brevi crassa leviter incurva, apice late et obtuse truncata, spinulis nigris incurvis creberrime vestita, intus ad apicem instructa. Pedes-maxillares longissimi, bulbo' ad basin nigro, praeterea fusco-rufulo, piriformi, spina intus directa, attenuata sed obtusa, subtiliter striata et supra acute carinata.
