Faljii. — Similar in colour aud clothing to legs ; moderately 

 long; radial joint very large, inflated, apex bifurcated (fig. 

 19) ; base of bifurcation hollowed out ; angles of processes 

 thickly set with short, stiff bristles or small teeth suggestive 

 of the armature of a rastellum ; digital joint rather small, 

 overhanging its neighbour like a hood, and is strongly armed 

 over the greater part of its upper surface with short stiff 

 bristles or small teeth, which latter again suggest a rastellum ; 

 this joint carx-ies the genital hulb (fig. 20) which is bright and 

 shining and terminating with a strong, moderately long, 

 style. The palp of this species somewhat recalls that of
