122 Transactions. — Zoology. 



thoracic junction, slopes slightly forwards from second row of 

 eyes ; height of clypeus less than radius of an anterior lateral eye. 



Anterior row of eyes slightly recurved, laterals are about 

 their radius from centrals, which are rather closer to one 

 another, and much the largest ; posterior pair are slightly 

 further apart and perceptibly larger than fore-laterals, are placed 

 on dark-brown tubercular eminences ; eye-area rather less than 

 one-fourth broader than long. 



Legs, first pair rather stout, yellowish, tinged with reddish- 

 brown ; hind pairs deep straw-colour ; armature sparse light 

 hairs, black spines, short and curved on femoral joints ; femora 

 of 1st dilated and compressed ; genua and tibia? cylindrical, 

 rather shorter than cephalothorax, latter articles rather the 

 longest ; metatarsi and tarsi shorter and much slighter than 

 former articles ; 1 spine on inner and under side of genua ; 

 beneath tibia? 3-4 ; metatarsi 2-2 ; spines on tibial and meta- 

 tarsal joints of 2, 3-4 fewer and less regular ; tarsal claws — 1st 

 pair, outer 1 strong tooth ; inner claw, about 14 close fine 

 teeth ; claw-tuft strong ; hairs linear, longer than claws. 



Palpi straw-colour ; whitish hairs. 



Fakes sensibly directed forwards, rather longer than three 

 terminal joints of palpus, stouter than femora of 1st pair, 

 transversely rugose ; dark lake-chocolate colour. 



Maxilla? dilated at extremity, rounded ; labium oval, apex 

 truncated, furnished with coarse hairs ; organs brownish. 



Sternum, oval, nearly twice as long as broad ; coxa 1 longer 

 than broad ; coxal joints of 1st pair strongest, about breadth of 

 lip apart ; yellowish. 



Abdomen elongated, pointed at spinners, moderately convex 

 above ; hairs sparse, pale-yellowish ; pale fulvous ; dorsal mark 

 linear-ovate, cinereous, enclosing a series of fulvous oblique bars. 

 Vulva yellowish red-chestnut; somewhat oval; two deep, 

 circular fovea, divided by a longitudinal septum ; posterior 

 margins tumid, with an apparently natural depression, black 

 spot in centre. 



Male. — Ceph. th., long, 3-3 ; broad, 2-9. Abel., long, 4 ; 

 broad, 2-1. Legs, 1, 4, 2, 3 = 7-8, 7, 6-5, 6 mm. 



Cephalothorax does not differ essentially in form or colour 

 from female's. 



Legs differ from female's in their actual and relative lengths, 

 but not in colour, or spine-armature. 



Palpi yellowish ; hairs sparse ; humeral joint nearly equals 

 three terminal articles in length, projects a short curved spine. 

 near its articulation with cubital joint, which is rather strong, 

 broadest at fore-end, projects a fine bristle; radial joint less 

 than half length of cubital, produced on outer side into a rather 

 short, pointed, black apophysis; clava oval; lamina bulbi
