ARACHNIDA. 



799 



Chelicerae with basal segments armed with four long setae (as in tig. lb): a single 

 seta at apex of movable digit ; immovable digit arouate, with hyaline dorsal crest ; flagellum 

 of movable digit long, slender with a variable number of longer or shorter digitiform terminal 

 processes. 



Measurement in mm. Total length, 55 with 25, length of chela, 7'5. 



Locality. Midu, Addu Atoll. 



Judging from its geographical distribution this species will probably prove to be nearly 

 related to G. personatus Simon (Proc. Zool. Soc. 1901, p. 79) from the Malay Peninsula. 

 The latter, however, was based upon a much smaller example, measuring in fact only 3'5 mm. 

 in length. Moreover the name personatus has already been applied by Simon to a quite 

 distinct form from the Sandwich Islands and cannot therefore be used for the Malay species.

The genus Sason ranges from the Seychelles to Celebes. S. cinctipes has been recorded 

 from Ceylon and doubtfully from Southern India.
