 front, minutely granulated, surface sparingly furnished with fine 

 white hairs; hairs surrounding anterior eyes rather long and 

 white; there are also a few short white hairs both between and 

 below the lateral eyes; the cephalic segment is nearly vertical

 segments distinct; there is also a rather deep median indentation 

 at the junction of the two segments, and just below this a small 

 tuft of white hairs; the thoracic segment declines somewhat 

 abruptly; it is clothed laterally with short white hairs. 



Et^es arranged in three rows, and nearly forming a square, the 

 quadrangle being rather longer than broad: the four forming the 

 anterior row are gently procurved, and of these the two median 

 eyes are distinctly the largest; the two comprising the second row 

 are exceedingly minute, and are rather closer to the anterior 

 lateral eyes than to the posterior row; those constituting the 

 third row are slightly larger than the lateral eyes of the anterior 

 series.

 of the metatarsi and tarsi, which are yellow-brown; the first pair 

 are considerably the strongest; all are armed with strong dark 

 brown spines and clothed with rather long white hairs. Relative
