ating bands ff)llowing the line of the cephalo-thoracic groove, the 

 other passing latero-caudad. Abdomen above in the brighter indi- 

 vidual (type) with a large black spot at each antcro- lateral 

 margin, a black spot at the centre of the dorsum from which two 

 ver\' narrow black lines pass forward and diverge, and on each 

 margin of the dorsum a row of about six smaller black spots, the 

 most posterior incompletely connected with those of the opposite 

 side by cross lines of minute black dots ; in the other c? these 

 markings are very indistinct. Sides and venter as in ?. Lefj8 

 and palpi darker than in ?. 



Cf/mparuonsi. — This form is quite similar in general appearance 

 to L. verisimilis n. sp. ; both have also the line of hairs oa the 

 anterior .surface of the chelicera ; but the genitalia of the two are 

 quite different, and relucem ha.s much stouter legs.

Eyes. — First row very slightly broader than the second, its 

 middle eyes slightly higher and larger than the lateral. Eyes of 

 second row largest, more than their diameter apart. Third row 

 slightly wider than .second, its eyes nearer to the .'^econd row than 

 to each other. Dorsal eye area only about one-sixth the length of 

 the cephalothorax. All eyes relatively .'•mall. 



Form. — Head rather low in front and its itulea oblique, Ce[)halo- 

 thorax very broad in front, more than three-fifths its greatest 

 diameter, highest just behind the pfjsterior eyes. Sternum longer 

 than broad, Chelicera ma.ssive, their length about twice the height 

 of the head in front, I^egs short, taf^iring in diMmctcr frorn 

 proximal to di.*tal end. 



Dimensions. — Length of cephalothorax, 4.G nini. 



T>ingth of abdomen, 6,2 mm. 



Length of fir?-t leg, 12 mm. 



Length of .second leg, \().H mm. 



Length of third leg, 10.4 mm.

Color in Life. — Cephalothorax black, a brown area surrounding 

 the eye region and superior part of sides of head and forehead, thi-
