light spots in front covered with orange-colored or with rusty-brown 

 hair and connected at middle with gray hair; light transverse marks in 

 front of posterior chevrons covered with gray hair; middle of dorsum 

 in front covered with mostly gray and with fewer brown hairs. Epigy- 

 num and spinnerets black-brown. Legs over the light spots with 

 partly gray pubescence ; pubescence elsewhere brown. 



Median dorsal line of cephalothorax straight, not depressed at dorsal 

 furrow. Sides of face convex and widely slanting. 



Anterior row of eyes procurved, but little shorter than the second 

 row; anterior lateral eyes their diameter or a little farther from front 

 margin of the clypeus, a little farther from eyes of second row; anterior 

 median eyes less than their diameter apart (four-sevenths), closer to 

 the smaller lateral eyes (1 : 1.7); eyes of second row fully their diam- 

 eter apart; anterior median eyes about their diameter from eyes of 

 second row; quadrangle of posterior eyes as wide in front as long, 

 about one-fifth as long as the cephalothorax. 



For structure of epigynum see PI. XIX, fig. 8. 



Total length, 11.5 mm. Length of cephalothorax, 5 mm.; width, 

 3.6 mm. 



Length of leg I, 13.1 mm. ; tib. -|- pat., 4 mm. ; met., 2.3 mm. 



Length of leg II, 11 mm. 



Length of leg III, 10.5 nun. 



Length of leg IV, 14.9 mm. ; tib. 4- pat., 4.6 mm. ; met., 4.1 mm. 



Male. — Coloration of cephalothorax and legs nearly as in female. 

 Abdomen with nearly same markings but black spot over front angles 

 circular, not enclosing a light spot ; venter with gray pubescence ; gray 

 pubescence of dorsum much more abundant than in female, the rusty 

 colored pubescence largely replaced by it. 



Tarsus of palpus some (11 : 13) shorter than the tibia + patella; 

 patella and tibia of about same thickness, the former slightly longer; 

 tibia but slightly thickened distally; tarsus clearly wider than tibia 

 (5:4).
