The carapace has a rather flat rear edge and not much in the way of bumps and knobbles. It has a faint dark median stripe running lengthways with two more stronger stripes along side it. The stripes more or less continue on over the middle of the abdomen, fanning out towards the rear in a chevron shape. Overall fawnish brown and furry looking, with some greenish patches. The femurs of leg I with furry knobbles anmd patches of longer white hairs.
