brown in a median band which may be very indistinct anteriorly, also 

 lighter along margins, with radiating light lines connecting middle and 

 side bands; clothed principally with light gray pubescence, which is 

 densest in a rather wide marginal band each side and in a middle band, 

 widening from eyes until as wide as eye area at point between eyes and 

 dorsal groove and then suddenly narrowed to only about half as wide, 

 and from there very gradually narrowing caudad ; the median band and 

 lateral band of gray on each side connected by radiating lines of same 

 color; on the sides a dark brown pubescence intermixed with the line of 

 gray and more aljundant above, below the median gray band. Chelicerce 

 black, the lateral condyles red, clothed with a dense light gra}^ or 

 yellowish gray pubescence. Labium and endites black or dark brown- 

 black, lighter distally. Sternum and coxcb of legs beneath black or dark 

 brown-black, clothed with gray and longer, stiffer dark brown or black- 

 ish pubescence. Legs brown to yellowish, clothed with light gray to 

 brown-gray pubescence ; scopulaB brown ; legs without rings or markings 

 above. Abdomen gray-brown from gray and brown pubescence inter- 

 mixed, usually in fine streaks and dots; a lanceolate outline or more 

 rarely solid mark at base which is truncated or bifurcated behind ; on 

 posterior half a few more indistinct chevron-marks, each bordered 

 behind by a light line, ending in a light spot each side; a row of tri- 

 angular dark spots on each side behind but connected by the light 

 cross-lines. Sides of abdomen light gray, immaculate or with a few 

 spots of brown. Venter in front of lung-slits brown or gray, often 

 black along the middle; behind lung-slits solid black or sometimes 

 with a light central spot surrounded with black. Spinnerets brown. 

 Epigynum dark reddish brown. 



Cephcdothorax high, highest a little behind third eye row, line of 

 dorsum a little convex; dorsal groove partly above and partly on 

 posterior declivity. Face hardly above half the length of the long and 

 massive chelicerse, the sides convex and slanting about as usual. 



Anterior row of eyes a little shorter than the second, nearly straight; 

 anterior median eyes distinctly larger than the lateral (3 : 2), less than 

 their radius apart and about the same distance from the lateral; 

 anterior lateral eyes a little more than their diameter from front margin 

 of clypeus, scarcely closer to eyes of second row; anterior median eyes 

 less than their diameter from eyes of second row; eyes of second row 

 less than three-fourths their diameter apart; quadrangle of posterior 

 eyes not fully one-fifth the length of the cephalothorax. 



Legs moderately long and stout; the posterior tarsi rather slender; 

 tibia + patella IV shorter than cephalothorax ; patella I and II armed
