Female, 8"'"^ long ; 4th leg, 5"'^ Male a little smaller. The abdo- 

 men is brownish orange-color with a yellow spot in the middle taper- 

 ing to a row of smaller spots behind. The cephalothorax has a 

 yellow spot behind, just under the front end of the abdomen, and a 

 narrow bright yellow stripe on each side. The middle is yellowish 

 without any definite stripe or spots. The rest of the cephalothorax 

 is black. The legs of the female vary from dark brown on the front 

 pair to light yellow on the hinder pair. In the male the legs are 

 wliiter with the femora of the first and second pairs black, or partly 

 spotted witli black. The male palpi are black, except the tips, which

The front eyes are smaller and the whole row not much more than 

 half as wide as the second row ; it is slightly curved upward and the 

 middle eyes are a little larger than the lateral. 



The palpal organ is large and the tarsus wide and short. In the 

 middle is a long appendage, thick and rounded at the front end and 

 sharply pointed behind. Fig. 6«.

The cephalothorax is a little more elongated than in Dolomedes, 

 and the head more distinctly separated by grooves. The eyes difier 

 but little in size, and the hinder pair are not much farther back than 

 the second.

 This species resembles Ocyale niirabilis of Europe, but the body 

 is less narrowed behind and the eyes are more like Dolomedes. 



The female is 13™'° long. Cephalothorax, 5'""' long, 5™" wide; 1st, 

 2d, and 4th legs, 25"^"" long. 



The cephalothorax and abdomen are flat and the cephalothorax is
