278 ARANEIDEA. 
This species comes near the spider I identify as P. disjunctus, Banks, but may be 
distinguished from it by the absence of metallic scales, the elongate form of the dorsal 
spots, and the /\-like shape of the apical spots ; the latter, however, are very variable. 
I am unable to recognize any reliable difference in the form of the vulva.

Phileus fartilis, Peckh. Trans. Wisc. Acad. Sci. vii. p. 27, t. 2. fig. 17 (¢) (1888) ’. 
Type, 2, in coll. Peckham. Total length 10 millim. 
Hab. Mexico}. 
This species is doubtless closely allied to P. marmoratus, but the vulva differs very 
much according to Peckham’s figure, of which we give a copy. 
8. Paraphidippus luteus. 
Phileus luteus, Peckh. Occas. Papers Nat. Hist. Soc. Wise. iii. 1, p. 40 (g) (April 1896) °. 
Type, d, in coll. Peckham. Total length 9 millim. 
Hab. Honpuras}. 
According to Peckham }, this species is very closely allied to P. chrysis (Walck.), but 
is of lighter colour, while the first leg is shorter in proportion, and there is no ridge on 
the face of the falces as in P. chrysis. 
9. Paraphidippus trimaculatus. 
Phileus trimaculatus, Banks, Proc. Calif. Acad. Sci. (8) 1. p. 282, t. 17. fig. 18 (¢)?. 
Type, ¢, in coll. Calif. Acad. Sciences, San Francisco. Total length 5:2 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Tepic?. 
According to Banks!, the mandibles of the male are unarmed, 7. e. without teeth on 
the basal segment: if this be correct, the absence of teeth is quite characteristic of the 
species. The fang is short. This and the following species are unknown to me. 
10. Paraphidippus limbatus. 
Phileus limbatus, Banks, Proc. Calif. Acad. Sci. (3) 1. p. 282, t. 17. fig. 17 (¢)’. 
Type, d, in coll. Calif. Acad. Sciences, San Francisco. Total length 4°5 millim.
