 second pair of legs longest, the eyes subequal, the hinder row curved 

 posteriorly.

 white curly hair besides the bristles ; found March 22, wandering on 

 the trunks of trees like Thomisus.

 empty. The figure in the Boston Journal of Natural History, Vol. V.

Oxyopes viridans. Fig. 14, eyes ; 14, a, specimen from North 

 Carolina; 14,6, from Alabama; fig. 134, cocoon. The difference in

 in the description given in the Boston Journal of Natural History, 

 Vol. v., p. 200, it is stated thr.t the second joint of the palpi is covered
