492 DESCRIPTIONS OP SOME NEW ARANEIDiE OF N.S.W. 



Sternum normal, yellowish, surrounded with a fringe of rather 

 long coarse hairs; the surface very finely granulated, and closely 

 clothed with short adpressed hairs. 



Abdomen somewhat obovate, slightly overhanging base of 

 cephalothorax, moderately arched, yellowish-brown with dark 

 brown markings, the surface being finely tuberculated and granu- 

 lated; anterior extremity sinuous; at about one-third its length 

 from anterior extremity there are two large but shallow discular 

 depressions, and these are separated from each other by a space 

 equal to about once their individual diameter; at about the centre 

 there are two others, equally as large but wider apart, being 

 separated from each other by a space equal to twice their indi- 

 vidual diameter; sides yellowish, marked with dark wavy granu 

 lated lines; ventral surface much smoother, dark yellowish-grey, 

 and marked at the middle with two lines of punctures rather 

 widely separated; these commence just below the epigastric fold 

 and run in a tolerably straight line for two-thirds their distance, 

 and then converge inwards towards the spinnerets, but do not 

 meet; those near the spinnerets are much the closest together; in 

 addition to these there are a few smaller lateral punctures 

 scattered promiscuously.
