Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
C. E. Schweitzer et al. 2006Carapace wider than long, maximum length about 70 percent maximum width, widest at position of last anterolateral spines, about 70 percent the distance posteriorly; frontal width about 40 percent maximum carapace width; fronto-orbital width about half maximum carapace width; anterolateral margins with eleven spines not including outer-orbital spines; anterior-most spines in three groups of three, posterior-most spines a pair; each triad and pair separated by closed fissure visible on dorsal and ventral surface; posterolateral margin concave, anteriorly rimmed.
Description: Carapace wider than long, maximum length about 70 percent maximum width, widest at position of last anterolateral spines, about 70 percent the distance posteriorly; regions moderately defined, groove delimiting outer margin of protogastric region and axial urogastric region especially deep; moderately vaulted longitudinally, weakly vaulted transversely.
