rably deep, oval ; radial striae faint ; caput grooves more 

 defined ; contour of profile slopes slightly across cephalic part, 

 dips moderately to stalk. 



Eyes do not differ much in size, on dark rings ; fore- and 

 hind-row form two rather prominently recurved lines ; anterior 

 centrals largest of eight, form with hind-pair a trapezoid 

 widest in front ; posterior centrals closer to one another — 

 visibly more than an eye's breadth — than they are to fore-pair ; 

 rather more than their space from side-eyes ; laterals smallest 

 of eight, posited obliquely, nearly the diameter of a posterior 

 eye, which visibly the smallest, apart ; fore-tubercle strongish, 

 cup- shape. 



Fakes dull olive-yellow, traversed by a wide, olive-green 

 band ; subcorneal, vertical, project well beyond plane of 

 clypeus ; length fully equals the pars digitalis of palpus ; as 

 stout as femur of third leg. 



Maxilla dull brownish-yellow, greenish tone ; rather 

 longer than wide, moderately dilated, obtusely pointed. 



Labium dark chocolate-brown, apex pale-slate. 



Sternum brownish-drab, passing into dark-brown round 

 margins. 



Legs : Femora light brownish-yellow, marked with broken, 

 fuscous-black annulations ; patellae, tibiae, metatarsi and tarsi 

 suffused with bright pea-green. Superior tarsal claws — first 

 pair, 10 teeth ; inferior, 2 close teeth. 



Palpi colour and armature of legs ; palpal claw evenly 

 curved, 9 comb-teeth increasing in length. 



Abdomen ovate, depressedly convex above ; hairs yellow- 

 ish, short, rather sparse ; armed with spine-like bristles re- 

 sembling leg-spines ; integument light brownish-yellow, well 

 suffused with bright pea-green ; base on either side of the 

 pea-green, buff-margined, subtriangular petiole of folium, fus- 

 cous-black ; folium moderately wide, tapers gradually ; dusky 

 outlines, lightly stained with brown ; basal end pinkish-creamy 

 colour, studded with reddish spots ; between the latter patch 

 and anus six pairs of projections occur ; three anterior much 

 the largest, somewhat comma- shaped, up-curved, velvety fus- 

 cous-black ; interrupted T-shaped marks of similar colour in 

 line with fore-pair ; three posterior pairs angular, greenish. 

 Superior and larger portions of lateral margins, which have the 

 greenish tone of dorsal aspect, are bordered by blackish, undu- 

 lating lines ; inferior parts yellowish-brown, marked with ill- 

 defined, longitudinal streaks. Ventral shield semicircular, 

 anterior end truncated ; olive-brown, lateral borders fuscous- 

 black ; partially traversed, midway, by two creamy-coloured, 

 somewhat pyriform marks. Corpus vulva ochraceous, passing 

 into fuscous-purple on fore-aspect of the subglobose part ; rests 

 on a pale-brownish elevation ; viewed from above, the genital
