ANYPHAENA, 97 
9. Anyphena stylifer, sp.n. (Tab. VII. figg. 13, 13a, ¢.) 
Type, 3, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length 6-5 millim. 
3. General characters similar to those of others of the genus. The tibia of the palpus bears at its base on 
the outer upperside a broad curved apophysis, its apex slightly dilate, directed forwards. The apex 
of the segment bears also on the outer side another shorter, sharper, dark-coloured process, its apex sharp 
and directed forwards over the base of the tarsus. The segment is slightly concave on the outer side 
between the two processes. The palpal organs consist of two semidiaphanous lobes; from the underside 
of the posterior one there springs from the base a long process, stout and strongly curved at the base, 
having a small curved lamina of chitin on the inner side and a triangular lamina with finely serrate edge 
on the outer side, gradually attenuate and terminating at its apex in a long filiform spine, its point almost 
reaching the apex of the tarsus; the same lobe bears also on the outer side towards the apex a short, 
sinuous stylum, hooked at the tip. The trochanter of the palpus is not spinose. The coxe of the legs 
bear no spines, tubercles, nor processes of any kind. Upper margin of the fang-groove with four, lower 
margin with three small teeth. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
A single adult male only of this very distinct species was taken. ‘The structure of 
the palpi and their organs furnishes the best distinctive characters. 
10. Anyphena trifida, sp.n. (Tab. VII. figg. 14, 144, ¢.) 
Type, ¢, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length 5°5 millim. 
3. Coxe of the first three pairs of legs, as well as the trochanter of the palpus, set with numerous short, 
black stout spines. Coxa iii, decidedly gibbous towards the apex beneath, but not produced to form a 
definite conical prominence, the spines longer than those on coxee 1. and ii. 
The tibia of the palpus is produced towards the base beneath into a conical process; at its apex, on the outer 
side, it bears a large process divided into three branches, the posterior one curved forwards and slightly 
hooked at its apex: the superior of the two anterior branches is the shorter, and consists of a simple, 
straight, chitinous lamina; the inferior is longer, broader, curving downwards, and takes the form of a 
concave, bilobate plate at its apex. 
Hab. Guatemata (Sarg). 
11. Anyphena plana, sp.n. (Tab. VII. figg. 15, 154, 8, ¢.) 
Type, gd, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length 4:5 millim. 
3. Coxe of the third pair of legs alone protuberant and only very slightly clothed with hairs, as also are 
those of the fourth pair. Tibia of palpus with a strong conical protuberance at its base beneath, bearing 
on its outer side at the apex a broad, sinuously curving, cylindrical apophysis, with a sharp triangular 
spur at its base on the upperside, the upper edge of the spur being itself serrate. Between this spur and 
the apex of the apophysis on its upper margin are four minute serrations; the apex itself is slightly 
bilobate and cylindrical. The palpal organs differ also considerably from those of A. gibba, though in 
these two species they show a great general resemblance; the apical apophysis is not bifid, but bears a 
triangular spur on the outer side at about the middle. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
12. Anyphena tuberosa, sp. n. (Tab. VII. figg. 16, 164, ¢.) 
Type, ¢, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length 5 millim. 
3. The coxe of the first pair of legs have no protuberances; those of the second pair have a strong
