Oharacters of Genus. 



Cephalothorax longer than wide, high ; sides and posterior angle 

 sharply declivous. Pars cephalica sloping sharply forward, 

 broad, square in front, and truncated. Clypeus hairy. Pars 

 thoracica high, sides declivous, and deeply indented laterally. 



Eyes small ; posterior row less recurved than the anterior ; of 

 the four comprising the anterior row, the median pair is smallest 

 and much the closest together, whilst the series constituting the 

 posterior row, are widely separated from each other, and equi- 

 distant. 



Legs long, hairy. Relative lengths 1 = 2, 4, 3. 



Palpi short, hairy. 



Falces robust, hairy. 



Maxillce moderately long, outer angles constricted near their 

 centre ; apices inclining inwards, obtuse, and not divergent. 



Labium coniform. 



Sternum oval, convex, truncated in front, obtuse behind. 



Abdomen oval. 



Saccodomus pormivorus, sp. nov. 



(Plate XXX., figs. 2, 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e.) 



$ . Cephalothorax 2*7 mm. long, 2*2 mm. wide ; abdomen, 

 4 mm. long, 3*7 mm. wide. 



Cephalothorax longer than wide, high, sparingly clothed with 

 fine, hoary pubescence, dark brown, encircled with exception of 

 clypeus, by a deep cream-coloured band. Pars cephalica dark 

 brown, sloping forward, truncated in front, sides declivous. 

 Clypeus dark brown5 hairy. Pars thoracica dark brown, high, 

 sloping forward, sides and posterior angle sharply declivous; 

 there is also on each side and near the junction of the cephalic 

 and thoracic segments, a long, deep depression. Marginal band 

 broad, cream-coloured. 



Eyes small, black, arranged in two recurved rows of four each; 

 second row less recurved than the anterior; of the four comprising 

 the anterior series, the median pair is the smallest, much the 

 closest together and separated from each other by a space equal 

 to about four times their individual diameter, but each lateral 

 eye is removed from its neighbour by many times its individual 

 diameter ; the posterior series are slightly larger than their anterior 

 lateral neighbours, widely separated from each other, but equi- 

 distant or nearly so. 



Legs robust, hairy; anterior pairs dark brown, joints annulated 

 white, but, judging from the specimens before me, these limbs are
