 tibia plus patella I, as broad as length of tibia I, but little narrowed in front. Eyes 

 about equal, posterior row barely recurved and hardly longer than anterior row, the

 oval, as in Trachelas. Legs without spines, many simple hairs, and serrate ones 

 under tarsi and metatarsi. Abdomen elliptical, spinnerets short. The epigynum
