328 ARANEIDEA. 
13. Lycosa guttatula, sp.n. (Tab. XXXI. fig. 21, 2.) 
Type, 2, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length 22 millim. 
Carapace deep brown, with a pale narrow submarginal bar, and a narrow central pale bar narrowing again 
suddenly behind the posterior eyes and terminating in a point behind the anterior central eyes. Abdomen 
brown, with the usual dark basal lanceolate band, but the other markings, if any, are indistinct. Ventral 
area rufous-grey, speckled with small, widely scattered, dark spots. Jegs red-brown; sternum darker 
brown; coxe red-brown, suffused apically with darker brown. Mandibles black, with a few pale hairs. 
Vulval area longer than wide, the cavity broad, circular; stem of the central L-shaped process slightly longer 
than the cross-piece, narrow, parallel-sided. 
Tibia and protarsus i. rather shorter than tibia and protarsus iv.; carapace equal in length to the latter. 
Anterior row of eyes nearly straight, almost as wide as the second row, whose eyes are rather over half a 
diameter apart. 
Hab. Mexico, Amula (H. H. Smith). 
14. Lycosa uncata, sp.n. (Tab. XXXL. figg. 22, 22a,b, 3.) 
Type, d, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length 14 millim. 
Carapace rich chocolate-brown, with a broad, ill-defined, marginal band of grey hairs and a central band of the 
same, narrow behind, gradually widening forward (slightly constricted at the base of the cephalic area, 
and again opposite the posterior eyes), occupying the entire ocular area; bearing in the postcephalic 
section a curved, dark, submarginal line on each side. Mandibles brown, with a line of fulvous hairs on 
the outer margins. Abdomen fulvous-grey, with an anterior rich brown shoulder-spot, continued, but 
more or less broken, along the sides to the spinners, where in the apical fourth section is a tuft of grey 
hairs, set in a brown spot; dorsally there is a central anterior brown lanceolate band, barbed on each side 
about the middle, rounded anteriorly, squarely truncate behind, followed by one or more small, triangular, 
brown spots above the spinners; lateral area grey; ventral area black, with a central, narrow, grey band 
extending from the genital rima to about one-third from the spinners. Sternum and coxe black. Legs 
dull yellow-brown beneath, clothed above with fulvous-grey hairs. 
Anterior row of eyes procurved. Tibiz i. and ii. with an apical dorsal spine. Tibia of palpus twice as long 
as broad, one-third longer than the patella; tarsus almost as long as both these segments together. 
The barbiform process of the palpal bulb is stout, the barb blunt and uncate and, viewed from the outer 
side, very short; viewed from above and in front it presents itself as a broad blunt lamina, almost at right 
angles to its basal portion. 
Hab. Mexico, Teapa (H. H. Smith).
