(2 spp.), Artoria (1 sp.), Evippa (1 sp.), Lijcosa (15 spp.), Ocyalc 

 .(2 spp.), Pardosa (2 spp.), Zenonina (1 sp.), and 2 spp. of Lycosa 

 which I now place in a new genus (Pterartoria), making a total of 

 26 species. To these I now add 33 new species and 1 new variety, 

 viz., Anomalomma (2 n. spp.), Artoria (1 n. sp.), Lycosa (12 n. spp.), 

 Pardosa (7 n. spp. and 1 n. var.), Trabcea (4 n. spp.), and the 2 

 new genera, Proevippa (1 n. sp.) and Pterartoria (6 n. spp.). 



Key to the South African Genera. 



a. Body and legs with plumose hairs * (without scales). 



a 1 . Carapace elongate. Chelicerse with 2 inferior teeth. Tarsi not scopulate. 



a 2 . Cephalic region distinctly elevated Proevippa n. g. 



I*. Cephalic region not elevated Anomalomma E. Sim. 



I) 1 . Carapace normal. Cheliceras with 3 inferior teeth. Anterior tarsi scopu- 

 late laterally Pterartoria n. g. 



b. Body and legs with finely ciliated hairs or with scales, but no plumose hairs. 

 o 3 . Labium reaching up to or beyond middle of maxillae. 



a 4 . Third leg longer than the first. Anterior row of eyes recurved 



Ocyale Aud. 

 & 4 . Third leg shorter than the first. 



as. Sides of head sloping Lycosa Latr. 



Jp. Sides of head vertical, at least in the lower part. Anterior row of 

 eyes strongly procurved. 



a 6 . Anterior median eyes about as far from the anterior laterals as 

 from one another Artoria Thor. 



I 6 . Anterior median eyes much further from the anterior laterals 

 than from one another Trab&a E. Sim. 



13. Labium short, not reaching to the middle of the maxillae. Sides of head 

 vertical, at least in lower part. 



a?. Cephalic region not elevated. Body covered with hairs 



Pardosa C. Koch. 



W. Cephalic region distinctly elevated. Body covered with scales. 



a 8 . Abdomen oblong. Chelicerse with 2 inferior teeth . .Evippa E. Sim. 



I s . Abdomen ampliated and truncated behind. Chelicera with 3 

 inferior teeth Zenonina E. Sim. 



* These hairs are most easily detected by examining the metatarsus of a leg 

 under a cover-glass with a compound microscope.
