Measurements in mm. — $ . Total length 23, width of head 6, 

 length of palpus 13, length of 4th leg 10, patella, tibia, and tarsus 

 of 4th S. 



Loc. Southern India : Vellore. 



126. Khagodes aimulatus, Simon, Bull. 8oc.Zool.Fr. x, p. 2, 1885; 



Pocock, Jour. Bom. N. H. Soc. ix, p. 452, 1895 (Rhax). 



This species is unknown to me, but, judging from the description, 

 it is closely related to B. nigrocinctus. It may, however, be 

 provisionally regarded as distinct on the grounds that Simon does 

 not mention the presence of a yellow patch on each anterior lateral 

 angle of the head, nor the blackness of the lower side of the femur 

 of the palp, nor the black spot on the lower side of the femur and 

 patella of the 1st leg, nor on the posterior side of the patella of the 

 4th leg. 



Loc. Wagra-Korur, near Guntakal in the Bellary District.

2 . Colour much like that of B. vittatus ; head and mandibles 

 deep reddish brown ; abdomen tolerably uniform whitish yellow, the 

 terga a little darker than the lateral surface, but there is no black 

 lateral band such as is present in B. vittatus; legs and palpi 

 yellow, with tibia and tarsus of palp and 1st leg brown and 

 becoming browner towards the distal extremity. Palpi and legs 

 shorter than in any of the Indian species ; width of head equal to 

 length of patella and tibia of palp, very slightly longer than these 

 segments of the 4th leg, and longer than patella, tibia, and tarsus 

 of the 3rd ; palpus much less than twice as long as the width of the 

 bead. Spine-armature of legs as in the other species, but with 

 -one additional stout brown spine (rarely two) at the apex of the 

 pateiia of the 2nd and 3rd legs, behind and below the normal 

 superior spine. Spines on tibia of 4th as in B. nigriceps, but with an 

 additional spine on the posterior side of the segment on the proximal 

 side of the normal posterior apical spine ; the two spiniform setse 

 on the apex of the tibia beneath long, but the anterior much thicker 

 than the posterior. 



J . Resembling the female in colour, except that the base of the 

 tibia of the palpus and the whole of the segment of the 1st leg is 

 yellow; spine-armature of legs as in female. Width of head equal 

 to tibia and ?.bout one-third of patella of palpus, and to tibia and 

 about one-sixth of patella of 4th leg, and to tibia and two-thirds 

 of patella of 3rd leg.
