close together, especially those of the 1st and 2nd pairs of ambulatory 

 legs. Lateral processes about the width of the body between, transverse 

 processes without spines or hairs. 



Ocular segTnent: Well developed, narrow in front where it bears 

 the chelifori. A little longer than the next 2 segments. 



Ocular tubercle: High, cylindrical. It bears deeply pigmented eyes 

 in its middle portion and has 2 very long hairs projecting from its end. 



Proboscis: Two-jointed, the 1st cylindrical, shorter than the 2nd, 

 which is bent upon it. The 2nd joint is thick in the center and tapers at 

 the ends, especially the tip. In its central portion it is more than half as 

 broad as long. 



Abdominal segment: Long, cylindrical. It is larger than the 1st 

 coxa and nearly as long as the 2nd coxa, including the length of the 

 transverse process. It is much narrower than any and bears 6 very long 

 hairs near its end. 



Chelifori: Three-jointed, slender, but shorter than the palpi. The 

 first joints are about equal in length, the 2nd is very much smaller. The 

 2nd joint bears 5 very long hairs which extend out laterally. The last 

 joint bears 3 very long hairs. 



Palpi: Ten-jointed. More slender than the chelifori. The first 2 

 joints very short, especially the 2nd. The 3rd and 5th are the longest. 

 The rest are all small and bear hairs. 



Ovigers: Ten-jointed. The first 2 joints are short; the 3rd is a 

 little longer; the 4th and 5th are the long joints; the 6th is about half as 

 long as the 5th. The remaining joints are small and bear 4 or more 

 slender teeth on their inner margins. The last joint has 1 or 2 terminal 

 or nearly terminal teeth. The last 5 joints all bear a few long hairs on 

 their outer surfaces. The eggs were small — about 0.1 mm. in diameter. 



Ambulatory appendages: The legs are moderately long and slender, 

 especially the long joints. The coxal joints are nearly the same size. The 

 femur is shorter than the tibial joints. The 2nd tibia is especially slender. 

 The 1st coxal joint bears 2 large lateral spinelilce processes. The 2nd and 

 3rd coxae bear rather long hairs. The femur bears a group of very long 

 hairs at its distal end. The 1st tibia bears 2 groups of very long hairs, a 

 few of which are plumelike. 



The 2nd tibia bears several very long hairs in 2 groups of about 3 

 each, a few of which are plumelike. The 1st tarsus is well developed, is 

 cylindrical, and has no long hairs. The 2nd tarsus is more than half as 

 long as the 2nd tibia. It is thicker than the tibia in its center, but is
