ns lonp:. TIio anterior eyes form a curved row, the middle being 

 less tlian twiec ns large as tlie lateral and snbtonehing, Avliile 

 the lateral are a little separated from them. The second row is 

 nearer the first than the third, and the third is not so wide as the 

 cephalothorax at that jdace. 



The cephalothorax has the upper surface and the lower sides 

 bron/.e. .V white band passes backward from the lateral eye 

 along the u]^]'>er side on to the thorax, Init does not unite with its 

 fellow of the opposite side. The abdomen is bronze, with a 

 white encircling band which groAvs narrower toward the spin- 

 nerets. On the dorsum arc' four pairs of indented dots. The 

 legs are bronze, with all the joints darkening toward the distal 

 ends. The femur is nearly black in the tirst Icix, while in the 

 others it is dark with a ]~)ale proximal end. There are white 

 scales on all the joints. The palpus is brown. It looks rather 

 like that of oelopuneiatus, but is not so long and slender, the 

 tibia being shorter and broader (plainly smaller than the tar- 

 sus), with a longer and slightly curved apophysis. The tube 

 from the end of the bulb is somewhat curled, while in octopunc- 

 iatus it is straiiiht. The falces are vertical and are swollen, like 

 those of octopiuictatiiSj fanstus, and aJbopilosus, with white 

 scales all over the front. The clypeus is narrow and dark. The 

 maxillae are widened at the tip and are about twice as long as 

 the labium, which is lonc:er than wide. 



The color of this species is entirely different from that of al- 

 io pit osiis. It is distinguished from faustus by having only one 

 process on the tibia of the palpus, and from octopunctatus by the 

 ditTerence in the palpus. 



We have one male from Para. 



Dendnjpliantes faustus, sp. nov. ^i. 



PI. XXVII, figs. 1-lb. 



Length, o and ^ (> m. Legs, S and ?, 1123; the first 

 verv lono- (0 mm.) in the male. 



In the male the cephalothorax and abdomen are bronze- 

 brown, the cephalothorax with white hairs on the sides, and the 

 abdomen with an encircling white band. On the clypeus and 

 around the eves of the first row are briirht irolden-red hairs.
