 from those collected around Adelaide and although the feet scintillate in 

 a like manner with the South Australian form, they are not so heavily 

 padded. 



The foreign genera enumerated above embrace Hve distinct species, 

 our Australian representatives make seven. 



Geiiiis Lampri)podus,i- (/e^i. nor. 



(J. Cei)h((lot]iora.v. — Obovate, narrow and truncated in front, bi'oad 

 at the middle. F((rs cep]nillri( slightly raised, arched, gently ascending, 

 segmental groove distinct ; ociilur lubercle high, arched, rather longer than 

 broad ; clypens narrow, steep. Pars thoracira broad, i^adial grooves 

 distinct ; thoracic fovea very slightly procurved. Eyes. — Distributed over 

 three rows of 2, 2, 4 each ; the rear row procurved in front, straight 

 behind. Le<js. — Long ; tibia i. furnished with an apophysis ; metatarsi 

 and tarsi scopulated ; relative lengths : 4, 1, 2, 3. Falpi. — Tibial joint 

 scopulated. Falces. — Short, not strong, modei^ately projected ; inner 

 ridge only of the furrow of each falx dentated. Labium. — Much broader 

 than long, free ; apex very slightly excavated. Sternum. — Pyriform, 

 broad ; sigilla minute, marginal. Spijinerets. — Stout, short, fii"st and 

 second joints of equal lengths ; inferior spinners atrophied or absent ; 

 anal tubercle large. 



9 . Allowing for sexual differences, similar to the male ; the legs 

 and anal tubercle are decidedly shorter, and the palpi much longer ; two 

 spimiers only.

 marginal band broad. Eyes. — Distributed over three rows of 2, 2, 4 ; 

 anterior pair slightly elliptical, poised obliquely, and separated from each 

 other by a space scarcely equal to that of once their individual diameter ; 

 second, or intermediate pair, larger than the foregoing, round, and 

 separated from each other by a space equal to that of once their own 

 individual diameter ; posterior laterals scarcely as large as the anterior 

 eyes, elliptical, poised obliquely, and slightly excavated on their inner
