the second (25 : 24) ; in dorsal view considerably procurved, a line 

 tangent to the anterior edges passing through the anterior third of 

 the lateral eyes. Anterior median eyes much smaller than the laterals, 

 their diameters being about as 2 to 3; medians three fourths their 

 diameter apart and near the same distance from the laterals. Pos- 

 terior lateral eyes of nearly same size as the anterior laterals from which 

 they are separated by less than their radius. Posterior median eyes 

 much smaller than the laterals; oblong, with sides straight and ends 

 more rounded. A line tangent to caudal edges of the two posterior 

 eyes of each side intersects the anterior median eye of opposite side. 



Metatarsus I and II scopulate very nearly to base; metatarsus III 

 scopulate over distal third; metatarsus IV scopulate only at distal 

 end.

Plate 7, fig. 9-10. 



Cephalothorax dusky brown, the margins of carapace and the eye- 

 area darkest. Edges of sternum darker than median portion. Cheli- 

 cera palpi and legs testaceous. Integument of abdomen dark above, 

 light beneath; a series of three pairs of obscure light stripes extend- 

 ing from near dorsal median line obliquely ventrocaudad across sides. 

 Spinnerets testaceous, in part dusky, especially at ends. Hair of 

 carapace light brown, those of sternum sparse, darker. Bristles of 

 abdomen dark rufous brown, the shorter hairs mostly lighter. 



Eye-area twice as wdde as long or very nearly so (67:34). Eye- 

 tubercle highest beneath anterior median eyes, behind which it 

 descends almost immediately and also slopes laterally from this
