side is distinctly convex at the base and towards the tip, but ahnost straight in 

 tlie middle, as neither the condylus nor the elevation beyond, which bears a long 

 hair, are pronounced. The hand, which has a short and well marked stalk, is 

 about 1-9 longer than broad, IS broader than the tibia and a little longer, but 1-2 

 longer than the fingers. The teeth of the immovable finger begin near base and 

 extend to the distinctly hooked tip; only the ten distal are triangularly pointed, 

 while the others are more or less squarely truncate; the teeth of the movable 

 finger begin rather apart from the base and are all low, rounded and squarely 

 truncate. 



Coxae. — The coxae are almost on a level with the maxillae and with each 

 other. The first pair are distinctly longer than broad and not widened out towards 

 extremity; the second pair are a little longer and broader than the first and mode- 

 rately widened out towards tip; the third pair are almost as long as broad and 

 distinctly enlarged distally. The fourth pair are distinctly longer and broader than 

 the preceding pair and appear triangular, because the interior and posterior margins 

 are continued into each other without interruption, the corner between them being 

 rounded; they are only 15 longer than broad, and have the anterior and posterior 

 margins of almost equal length. 



Legs (PI. II, figs. 8 f-g). ~ The hairs of the legs are pointed and fairly long 

 and slender. The fourth pair of legs have a very long and slender one placed 

 dorsally near the middle of the tibia as well as one, even longer, dorsally at the 

 base of the first tarsal joint. The trochantin of the first pair of legs has its articu- 

 lation with the tibial part very slightly developed (cf. p. 38 and figs. 7 a-b), and is 

 dorsally a little longer than ventrally; it is as long as one third of the whole femur; 

 this is almost three times longer than deep. The fennir of the fourth pair of legs 

 is about 2-5 longer than deep, and has the ventral margin of the trochantin as 

 long as femur is deep. The tarsi of the first pair of legs are of equal length to 

 the tibia, while the tarsi of the fourth pair of legs are much shorter than tibia; 

 the second tarsal joint is always much longer than the first; the second tarsal 

 joint of the fourth pair of legs is much shorter, than the femur is deep. The 

 arolinm, which extends distinctly beyond the claws, has the stalk bifurcate and 

 each branch terminated with a small sucking-cup. 



Colour. — The palps are light reddish brown with hands darker and more 

 polished; cephalothoracic shield dull brown, and coxae and maxillae yellowish 

 brown. The abdomen yellowish with sclerites a little darker.
