darker sclciite, half length and a jinler iioslcrior portion, which hoars four or live 

 pair ol' hairs, which arc increasing in lenglh towards the lip ol' the hody. The 

 sclerile ol' the filth sternile is divided into two triangular portions, almost touching 

 each other with their inwards directed apices; the hinder portion of this sternite 

 bears four sliort pair of hairs (fig. 1 b, s '). The sclerile of the fourth sternite is 

 much shorter than the hindmost portion, which bears three pair of hairs; the 

 two lateral portions of tlie sclerile are connected by a very short almost obsolete 

 inner part, a mere line, which is curved distinctly backwards in the middle 

 (lig- 1 b, s '). 



Genital area (fig. lb, a). — In front of the fourth sternite we find a large 

 almost rhombic genital area, which is raised towards the middle and provided 

 with a number of short hairs. In the middle of this plate, a genital opening (g), 

 which is narrow behind and distinctly enlarged in front, is found; on each side 

 of the hindmost narrow portion the margins of the plate are raised like two 

 valves to open or shut this part of the opening (u). In the front, broadest part 

 a dark chilinous body is seen; in front of the sexual area and between the coxae 

 a number of short hairs are situated. 



Colour. — The antennae are reddish and the palps yellowish brown. The 

 head and three first tergites are greenish, the former with darker margins. The 

 other abdominal sclerites are yellowish brown, darker than the palps. 



Material. — Dr. Th. Mortensen caught two males and two females under 

 stones at the Island of Koh Chang (' i 1900) and a single female under the stem of 

 a tree on the beach of Lem Ngob. 



Remarks. — The interesting little species is in several respects (palps-eyes) 

 different from the two other species, known from the Indian Region.

E. Daday. 1897. (14.) p. 479, tab. XI, figs. 1—4, 8—9. 

 Two pairs of eyes; distance from each other equal to their diameter, while 

 distance from first pair to front margin twice diameter. Céphalothorax broader 

 in front and here as broad, as it is long. Front margin with a median rounded 

 eminence, which bears a tooth and a pointed hair on each side. The antennae are 

 small, not half as long as the céphalothorax and only one fourth of its breadth 

 broad; the seven long pinnate hairs are according to the description placed on a 

 common stem, a feature which is scarcely consistent with the reality. The femur 

 of the palps bears an anterior marginal row of six long slender hairs; the hand 

 is nmch broader and longer than the tibia, and shorter than the fingers. Second 

 pair of coxae with six or seven branched hairs (fig. 9); Ihe claws have lower 

 margin crenated. New-Guinea at Friedrich-VVilhelnishafen.
