29. Attus puerperus. 



PI. 8, fig. 22. 



Description. Testaceous or yellowish ; intermediate small 

 eyes, and the two last, borne on elevations ; abdomen with 

 about twelve black dots, underneath with a black spot near the 

 apex ; feet, 4. '6. or 3. 4. 1. 2. 



Ohse7'vations. Mr. Thomas R. Button, who brought this 

 fi'om Georgia, gave me another one, which was not, like this, 

 replete with eggs. The abdomen not being distended, the 

 dots appeared less regular and distinct. 



Habitat. Georgia.

Description. Cephalothorax and trophi rufous varied with

 rufous or yellowish, 4. 3. 1. 2., in the male 4. 1. 2. 3., and 

 speckled with black dots. 



Observations. With some hesitation I refer to the same

 the respective length of the legs. In the genus Attus that 

 character is sometimes a sexual distinction. 



Habitat. North Carolina, Alabama. [361.]
