 dark markings larger. The ends of the palpi are large and 

 covered with black hairs. 



In one freshly molted young male there was hardly any 

 trace of the spots on the sternum. The male palpi were dark 

 gray with black hairs, except the tarsus, which was light 

 colored, with a dark spot

The male with head and palpi black (fig. 203). In 

 female the cephalothorax has a large light middle stripe, 

 widest between the eyes and the dorsal groove, and a narrow 

 light stripe on each side (fig. 202). The abdomen is light in 

 the middle for its whole length in an irregular stripe partly

 markings is greater, the markings of the cephalothorax are 

 smaller and brighter, and the head and palpi are black and 

 covered with black hairs.
