MIMETUS.—GALENA, 411 
5. Mimetus hirsutus. 
Mimetus hirsutus, O. P.-Cambr. Biol. Centr.-Amer., Arachn. Aran. i. p. 298, t. 36. figg. 9, 
9a(?)’. 
Type, 2, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length 2°5 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Amula in Guerrero (H. H. Smith +). 
The type of this species is partially dried and shrunken, and the bristles thus appear 
to be closely placed, giving it a very hirsute appearance. The abdomen of UV. trituber- 
culatus is clothed with similar bristles, which are not, however, represented in the 
figure given in Vol. I. The vulva of MZ. hirsutus is not visible, and one cannot there- 
fore judge of the value of the species. 
GALENA. 
Galena*, C. L. Koch, Die Arachn. xii. p. 105 (1845). 
Type G. zonata, C. L. Koch (3). ? Brazil. 
Legs i. and ii. subequal, much longer than iii. and iv. ; tibia and protarsi i. and ii. (the latter being strongly 
curved) furnished with long, widely separate spines, having a row of shorter, closely adjacent, curved 
spines between them, ili. and iv. with one or two spines only; femora of all four pairs closely spined. 
Carapace very convex above, central fovea circular, very deep. Central anterior eyes at least one full 
diameter from the laterals. Clypeus narrower than the anterior central eyes. Sternum produced into a 
long narrow plate between coxe iv. Palpus of the male very long and slender. Tarsal claws three. 
Colulus present. 
The females of the species here recognized may be distinguished thus :— 
Females. 
a. Carapace unicolorous, without broad yellow-brown central band. 
a'. Vulval area much larger, having a broad central tongue with a 
large cavity on each side ; seen from above, it appears as a large, 
broad, triangular, chitinous area, with a pair of central adjacent 
shallow depressions . ..... 6+... - . . . miata, O. P.-Cambr. 
b!. Vulval area much smaller, without a cavity on each side. Seen 
from above, it appears as a small, central, pointed tongue, directed 
forwards, having on each side a very small cavity, with an orifice 
evident at the bottom ofeach . . . . » ee ew we. 6Consequa, O. P.-Cambr. 
b. Carapace with a broad yellow-brown central band - 2. se « . « « adistincta, O. P.-Cambr.

Gelanor medius, O. P.-Cambr. loc. cit. p. 8304 (¢ 9)”. 
Type d, gynetype 2, of both G. mata and G. media, in coll. Godman & Salvin. Total length of G. mizta, 
3 5, 2 7:25 millim. 
Hab. Guatemata, Menché, Chiacam (Sarg!?); Panama, Bugaba (Champion?).. 
I cannot see in G. media (O. P.-Cambr.), 2, anything more than an immature form 
* Galene, not Galena, was preoccupied by de Haan in 1835.
