female carapace yellow with some duskiness in center and with eye region sometimes black; sternum and legs yellow. Abdomen yellowish with black spots or lines on dorsum (see fig. 363 in Levi 1957a). The drawing looks like a black median longitudinal line, transversed anteriad by a short black line (like a cross pattern) and with a pair of thin black lines on the sides of the abdomen, not converging with the black cross. Venter with dusky spots.
