C. rufus n. sp. (Pl. 2, fig. 6 a). 



Female. — Cephalothorax broad oval very little tapering 

 towards the front. Pars cephalica very large occupying about 

 *'.ö of the length of cephalothorax. Central furrow straight, 

 transverse. No cephalic or thoracic strise. The whole sur- 

 face witli thickly-set, deep impressed döts and clothed witli 

 short, adpressed hairs of whitish colour on the sides and 

 blackish ones on the pars cephalica. Clypeus not as high as 

 the area of central eyes. Colour carmine-red . 



Eyes. Anterior row nearly straight. Diameter of cen- 

 tral eyes very little shorter than t hat of anterior laterals. 

 Intervals between anterior eyes equal in length and not lon- 

 ger than diameter of anterior centrals. Lateral eyes conti- 

 gous; anterior one larger than posterior. Posterior row a 

 little procurved. Posterior centrals smaller than posterior 

 laterals. Interval between posterior centrals nearly thrice 

 their diameter apart and the distance from posterior laterals 

 a little longer. Area of central eyes nearly squarish, very 

 little broader in front (breadth in front 0,3 7 mm., behind 

 0,35 mm.). 



Cheliceres red, robust and scarcely tapering towards the 

 apex. Fang-groove at the outer margin witli numerous stiff 

 and long spiniform hairs. 



Labium triangulär, longer than broad and a little exci- 

 sed at the apex (conf. fig. 6 a). 



Coxa of q^edipalp a little longer than labium, obliquely 

 truncated at the apex, as labium of reddish colour but paler.

 First pair as by the other species of this group. Coxa very 

 large, femur strongly petiolate and claviform enlarged. Tar- 

 sus appendiculate and very short. The other legs of normal 

 shape. No spines, but all joints clothed with a thin blackish 

 pubescence and on the distal joints a very characteristic sco- 

 pula or brushes of black spines. On the three dis tal joints 

 of the first pair of legs there is a large crest-shaped scopula 

 on the anterior side of joints (Conf. the fig. 6 d). Tarsal 

 claws 2; those of first pair of legs (fig. 6 e) very small with 

 very low and min ute denticles, those of the other pair of
