first leg and equal to the tibia, metatarsus, and f of the tarsus of 

 fourth leg. 



Ocular area. Width behind about f of the length of the fourth 

 metatarsus. Anterior lateral eyes not very large, transverse ; the 

 posterior row with the anterior margins of the eyes forming 

 a lightly recurved line, the small median eyes transversely oval, 

 their distance apart slightly less than the distance between the 

 anterior lateral eyes and their distance from the posterior lateral 

 eyes about equal to their own diameter ; the latter eyes distinctly 

 oval and a little larger than the medians, their distance apart equal 

 to the width of the anterior row ; distance between the posterior and 

 anterior lateral eyes a little exceeding the long diameter of the latter. 



Pedipalps as in the foregoing species, except that the tibia has 

 a few distal apical spinules above. 



Legs. Tibia of first leg as long as the metatarsus, its length 

 exceeding the width of the posterior row of eyes by a lateral eye's 

 diameter at least ; spines and spinules as in the foregoing species. 

 Third leg with about 21 spines in the anterior and 17-19 in the 

 posterior band on the metatarsus ; patella with a number of short 

 stout red spinules at apex above, similar to those on the tibia. 

 Fourth leg with the patch of red spinules on the patella very large, 

 extending over at least f of the anterior surface ; the infero-posterior 

 tuft on the metatarsus composed of about 11-12 setiform spines, the 

 inner half of which are crowded together in a transverse row, while 

 the outer (inferior) half are more irregularly arranged and scattered. 



Labium with 5 apical teeth. 



Total length 30| mm. ; length of carapace 10, width 8 ; length 

 of metatarsus of first leg 3^; width of ocular area 3J. 



7. STASIMOPUS KENTANICUS n. sp. 



Types. 2 $ $ (No. 12411) with nests, found near the village of 

 Kentani, Cape Colony, by the Eev. F. C. Kolbe in 1902. 



Closely allied to umtaticus n. sp., but differing in the following 

 respects : 



5 $ . Colour of abdomen nearly black, the under side paler, the 

 genital segment and the 4 lung-opercula pale yellowish ; anterior 

 spinners and basal segment of posterior spinners with a black mark 

 at apex below. 



Eyes. Posterior median eyes not transverse, rather large, further 

 apart than the anterior lateral eyes, their distance from the posterior 

 laterals equalling or less than their transverse diameter ; the latter
