Up to tlie publication of this paper the female of this species only 

 was known, and that was described from a dried specimen in the Britisli 

 Museum as quoted above. In the material collected by Dr. Pulleine there 

 are half a dozen females and two males, three of tlie former being adult 

 and three immature ; of the mature forms there is one in excellent con- 

 dition from Port Augusta West, Soutli Australia, which, together with 

 the other specimens bears out Pocock's description, and, except in point 

 of size, Hogg's supplementary remarks and figure. The largest specimen 

 under review shows the following measurements : — Cephalothorax, 11'8 

 mm. long, 9"5 mm. broad ; abdomen, 137 mm. long, 10 mm. broad. The 

 type came from LaAvler's, East Murchison Goldfields, West Australia. 

 All the examples before us are from South Australia. 



Included in the collection are two male specimens from Mallala, 

 South Australia. Both of these are fully developed, and bear a strong 

 superficial resemblance to the males of Aganippe juillehiel, Hogg, and ^1. 

 subtrhti^, 0. P. Cambr., but are easily distinguished therefrom by the e^^e 

 formula. The description is as follows: — 



$. CephaK)thorax, 8'8 mm. long, 7 mm. broad ; abdomen, 8"4 nun. 

 long, 4*3 mm. broad. 



Cephalothorux. — Obovate, yellow-brown, setose. Farit ceplialicu 

 strongly arched, ti'uncated in front, thoracic groove strongly impressed ; 

 ocvhir urea raised, rather broadei' than long, well arched ; chjpeus deep, 

 hyaline. Fars thoracica broad, moderately arched, radial gi-ooves broad, 

 deep ; thoracic fovea deep, procurved ; luarglnal baud i)allid, closely fringed 

 with strong, black setae. Eiji's arranged in two rows of four each ;
