314 ARANEIDEA. 
longer than i., and the tibie i. and ii. have no small apical pair of spines beneath. 
The anterior row of eyes is straight or slightly procurved; the centrals are less than 
one diameter apart, larger than the laterals; the posterior centrals are scarcely one 
diameter apart, slightly further from the laterals. Clypeus twice as high as the 
- diameter of an anterior central eye. Lower margin of the fang-groove with three equal 
equidistant teeth. 
1. Syntrechalea tenuis, sp. n. (Tab. XXX. fig. 18, 2.) 
Type, 9, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length 7 millim. 
The entire spider yellow, clothed with white hairs ; the legs also with indistinct dusky annulations. Abdomen 
suffused with olive-brown, with darker speckles (either the markings have been cbliterated or else there 
is no decided pattern). 
The vulva consists of a circular-oval area, with a central, convex, somewhat wedge-shaped-oval tongue, not 
quite reaching the posterior margin. 
Hab. Paxama, Bugaba (Champion). 
Fam, LYCOSID. 
As I have remarked elsewhere, it is very difficult to give any constant characters by 
which this family can be distinguished from either the Agelenide or Pisauride. From 
the former, however, the species here referred to it can be separated by the eyes being 
in three rows, instead of two, and from both by the fact that the tibia of the male 
palpus is never armed with a spur. 
The genera referred to below may be recognized as follows :— 
GENERA. 
A. Tibiz iii. and iv. with a distinct stout spine at the base above, situated 
slightly towards the inner margin. 
i. Tibia i. with 2—2—2 short (in length equal to the diameter of the 
segment, or not greater) spines beneath, the last pair apical. 
Cephalic region without any distinct dark wedge-shaped mark within 
a pale central band. 
a. Carapace, seen from in front, precipitous at the sides. Labium 
not longer than broad. Bulb of the male palpus with a variously 
formed central process and no barb-like spur . . . . . . Parposa, Simon. 
6. Carapace, seen from in front, oblique or rounded at the sides. 
Labium longer than broad. Bulb of the male palpus without 
any central process, but with a barb-like spur on the outer 
margin . ech . . . . . . . Liycosa, Latr. 
ii. Tibiai. with very long spines (longer than the diameter of the segment) 
beneath, 2—2 in the female, the last pair median; 2—2—2 in the
