Family. HARPACTICIDA. 
Jonesiella hyene, n. sp. (PI. IX., figs. 1 to 10). 
Length 1-30thinch. Body ovate, of nearly equal thickness 
throughout; head and first thoracic segment coalescent. 
Rostrum (fig. 4) long and spatula like; rounded anteriorly. 
Anterior antenne (fig. 2) broad at base with cleft on each 
side near the base, then widening and surmounted bya 
tree-like crown, having a second segment at apex and 
several spinose and plumose sete. Posterior antenne 
(fig. 8) two branched, the outer branch being two jointed. 
The lower joint has two short plumose spines; the apical 
joint is edged on cuter side with short spines, and has 
several long spinose sete at the apex. The inner branch 
is short (joints not made out), and is terminated by two 
long plumose sete. Mandibles (fig. 5) broad and strongly 
toothed; palp of one short stout joint and bearing several 
long and short spines. First footjaw (fig. 6) much resem- 
bles that of Jonesiella fusiformis, Brady and Robertson. 
Second footjaw (fig. 7) two jointed, bearing a finely curved 
narrow clawed hand, the latter being jointed near the 
centre. The first joint has two or three short plumed 
spines at the apex; the second joint is finely ciliated on its 
inner margin. First pair of swimming feet (fig. 8) have 
three joints to each branch, the inner branch being rather _
