Our specimens are rubbed. In the male the ceplialotborax 

 is dark brovrn and seems to 'have been covered with bronze scales. 

 There are indications of a white encircling band. The lower 

 margin has a very narrow white line. The abdom^en is brown, 

 the dorsum surrounded by a white band. The legs and palpi 

 are of a medium bro^\^l with some darker bars. The palpus 

 has a long, spiral tube. The f alces are divergent, nearly vertical, 

 with a fang as long as the f alx ; on the under proximal part just 

 beyond the point of the maxilla, is a short curved horn, pointing 

 toward the base. This is a characteristic point, as the only other 

 species having such a process is hisquepunctatus, which is larger 

 with a different palpus.^ The f alces are brown with bro^vn 

 hairs. The labium is a little longer than wide and a little less 

 than half as long as the maxillae, which are excavated, trunc- 

 ated, and projecting at the outer corner. The female has the 

 cephalothorax with light bronze scales, the sides and clypeus 

 being white. The abdomen is brown with a central longitudinal 

 band of light bronze, and an encircling band of yellowish white. 

 In front of the spinnerets are two pairs of oblique vrhite lines 

 running from the central band to the white on the border. 



We have two males and a female from Chapoda. 



Dendryphantes cuprinus Tacz. 



PI. XXVII, fig. 7. 



Length, $, 5 mm ; $ 6 mm. Legs, ^ 1243 ; first stoutest and 

 longer tlian tlie second by the tarsus, metatarsus and nearly al] 

 of the tibia; second, third and fourth nearly equal; $ 1423, 

 first much the stoutest. 



The cephalothorax is narrow in front, widening out to a point 

 behind the dorsal eyes. The sides are a little wider below than 

 above. The quadrangle of the eyes is one-fourth wider than 

 long, a very little wider behind than in front, and occupies 

 nearly one-half of the cephalothorax. The anterior eyes are 

 close together in a curved row, the middle being less than twice 

 as large as the lateral. The second row is plainly nearer the 

 first than the third, which is narrower than the cephalothorax. 



The male has the whole body bright brown, covered with 

 golden hairs which have a slight metallic lustre. The cephalo- 



I Mohica Moenkhausii has a horn under the falx like that of bisquep anctatus.
