132 LOUIS FAGE 



latéral pair are nearly contiguous and placed pbliquely, so tliat 

 the centrais taken with eitlier the anterior or posterior eyes 

 of the latéral pairs singly form in reality a curved line (the curve 

 formed by the centrais and fore-laterals being less than that 

 of the centrais and hind-laterals). The eyes of the central 

 pair are very nearly contiguous to each other, and each is 

 nearly a diameter's distance from the fore-lateral on its side. 



The legs are very long, 1, 4, 2, 3, slender, furnished with 

 hairs only. The coxae of the first and second pairs, especially 

 of the first, are much stronger than the rest, and the femora 

 are rather curved and clavate, the lower extremities being 

 gradually incrassated to at least double the thickness of the 

 anterior portion. The tarsi end with two claws issuing from 

 a smal and distinct claw- joint ; they are of a dull olive-greenish 

 colour a small portion at the extremities being yellowish. The 

 greater part of the genuae is black, and there is also a small 

 part of the extremity of the other joints approaching to black, 

 gi ving the legs a somewhat annulated appearance at thore joints. 

 The metatarsi and tarsi are yellow-brownish, the end of the 

 latter paler. 



The folpi are short, similar to the legs in colour. The 

 cubital joint is very short, with a long, strongish, tapering 

 bristle at its fore extremity above ; the radial joint is long 

 and strong, and rather of a tumid form, furnished with strongish 

 bristles or bristly hairs. The digital joint is long, about equal 

 to the radial in length, distinctly curved, and tapers to a sharp 

 spine-like point at its extremity ; it is furnished with numerous 

 long bristly hairs, chiefly along the inner side ; rather beneath, 

 on the inner side, is a strong lobe a proéminence, to which, 

 underneath, is attached the palpai bulb, the latter of an 

 oval form at its base, with its extremity produced into a very 

 long, tapering, sharp-pointed, corneous process. 



The falces are moderate in length and strength, straight, 

 but considerably porrected, and similar to the legs in colour. 

 On the underside of the oblique extremity of each faix is a
