138 Trausactions. — Zoology. 



Cephalothorar bro^ uish-orange, light - fuscous shading 

 mostly about median hne, normal gi'ooves and marginal zone ; 

 line composed of lake-colom-ed dashes bifurcates at limit of 

 caput, joins posterior lateral eyes ; triangular lake mark be- 

 neath fore-centrals ; few black bristles, chiefly about occiput ; 

 oval, lateral margins of caput moderately compressed ; pars 

 eephalica convex, roundly truncated, eye-eminence prominent, 

 angles cup-shape ; facial index perceptibly exceeds lateral ; 

 clypeiis inclined forwards, sides less tumid than female's, 

 height equal to two-thirds space of fore-centre eyes; pars 

 thoracica convex, fovea oval, deep, longitudinal ; caput and 

 radial strias faint ; contour of profile slopes across caput, per- 

 ceptibly curved ; angle of posterior inclination about 45^'. 



Posterior row of eyes sUghtly procuiTed, median pair 

 scarcely theii' diameter from each other, tliree-fourths their 

 space from lateral eyes ; anterior row recui^ved ; centrals dark, 

 largest of eight, separated from one another and side-eyes by 

 an interval shghtly exceeding their own breadth ; laterals 

 contiguous, seated obhquely on a common, fair-sized, lake- 

 coloured tubercular prominence. 



Falces red-mahogany, passing into a darker shade at ex- 

 tremity ; transversely rugulose ; linear, vertical, moderately 

 stout, length nearly equal to the pars humeralis of palpuo. 



Maxilla long, linear-oval, somewhat pointed, inclined 

 towards each other. 



Labium nearly as long as broad, roundly pointed, everted, 

 less than one-half length of maxillae; organs orange-brown, 

 base suffused with lake. 



Sternum lake-colour, centre band yellowish, cordate, emi- 

 nences opposite coxae. 



Legs light orange-yellow, lake stains on coxal joints ; 

 annuli hght cinereous-brown, bordered and more or less suf- 

 fused with lake ; rings on thighs more or less evanescent, 

 resolved into spots ; two on patellar joints ; foin- annulations 

 on tibiae of fore-pairs, three on hind-pairs ; metatai'sal joints 

 have two annuh ; hau-s somewhat sparse, outstanding ; spines 

 long, slender, mostly project laterally ; 4 spines on femora ; 

 patellae, 2 ; tibiae of first pair, 15 ; second, 10 ; metatarsi of first, 

 13 ; second pair, 8 ; tibial joints of hind-pairs, 5 : metatarsi, 2 

 spines. 



Pa/^^z shade paler than legs; slender; pais humeralis rather 

 surpasses cubital -f radial joints together in length, thickens 

 slightly at fore-end ; cubital joint tapers somewhat to base, 

 more than one-half length of penultimate article, projects two 

 bristles ; radial joint lageniform, fore-half tumid, prolonged 

 above outer side into a reddish, flat, tapering process; base 

 slender ; projects above long bristles ; digital joint subglobose, 

 about length of pars radialis; lobes lake-brown, appendages
