Dolophones maximus, nov. sp. (PI. XV., Fig. 5). 



Cephalothorax and upper side of abdomen, legs and palpi 

 yellowish brown, with nearly white, fine, down-lying hair. Lip 

 and maxillae orange, with pale edges. Coxae and underside of 

 femora reddish. Sternum the same. Underside of abdomen 

 black and shiny, with two yellowish mottled areas on each side 

 of the breathing slits. The colouring and hair clothing of the 

 upper side turns over to the underside and forms a margin all 

 round. 



The Cephalothorax is broadest at the rear, narrowing gradually 

 to the front. The head and breast parts are equally low and 

 separated by side impressions ; a longitudinal fovea on the latter. 



The four median Eyes are situated on a prominence, the two 

 front one and a half of their diameters apart, and a similar 

 distance from the rear pair, which are twice the diameter of the 

 front, and two of their diameters apart. The side eyes, half 

 diameter of the front middle, are contiguous on a small tubercle. 

 They are five diameters of the front middle away from and in a 

 straight line with them. 



The Mandibles are stout, shorter than front patella, and rather 

 thickly covered, on the inner side especially, with coarse, bristly, 

 pale yellow hair. 



The Maxillae are upright, the upper half broad and square, 

 the lower half narrowing somewiiat abruptly. The Lip is half
