anterior median eyes more than three-fourths their diameter apart, 

 about two-thirds as far from the scarcely smaller lateral eyes, fully their 

 diameter from eyes of second row; anterior lateral eyes twice their 

 diameter from front margin of clypeus, slightly more than their dia- 

 meter from eyes of second row; eyes of second row their diameter 

 apart; quadrangle of posterior eyes as wide in front as long, wider 

 behind than in front in the ratio of 4 : 3, some more than one-fourth 

 as long as the cephalothorax. 



Chelicerce with furrows armed below as usual with three teeth, of 

 which the middle is a little longest, the third not very much reduced ; 

 the upper margin with three teeth of which the first is minute. 



Tibia + patella of fourth legs of same length as the metatarsus; 

 tibia + patella of first pair of same length as the cephalothorax; legs 

 of fourth pair four times as long as the cephalothorax; tarsi as usual 

 in the genus, those of the first two pairs of legs being scopulate laterally, 

 those of the posterior pairs simply setose; tibia) of first and second 

 pairs of legs with three pairs of spines below as is normal, the two first 

 pairs of these very long and overlapping; all tarsi straight or nearly so. 



Epigynum presenting no distinct lateral ridges posteriorly; lateral 

 plates of the guide very wide, extending laterally to or nearly to the 

 ends of the transverse piece and nearly as wide in front as behind, 

 covering over nearly completely the posterior half of the epigynal 

 area. (PL XIV, fig. 5.) 



Total length, 6.8 mm. Length of cephalothorax, 2.9 mm. ; width, 

 2.1 mm. 



Length of leg I, 8.4 mm. ; tib. + pat., 2.9 mm. ; met., 1.9 mm. 



Length of leg II, 8 mm. 



Length of leg III, 8 mm.

Male (type). — Cephalothorax in color drab brown, with the head 

 region black; a narrow and short, inconspicuous median stripe over the 

 dorsal groove but not distinguishable in front of it, narrowing behind 

 as in female, not reaching posterior margin; marginal pale bands nearly 

 as in the female but obscured anteriorly. Clypeus not pale, black like 

 head region. Labium and endites blackish, pale distally. Sternum 

 nearly as in female. Palpi entirely black. Legs yellow, the femora with 

 inconspicuous black marks above, other joints with dark circular lines 

 about bases of the spines but otherwise unmarked. Abdomen much as 

 in female but with the markings much obscured, 



Scopus of palpal organ short and blunt, much as in lapidicina; 

 anterior margin of conductor much thickened, presenting three fleshy 

 lobes with apices projecting backward over the furrow.
