Two very large eyes on each side, about 4 /-2 diameter from each 

 otlier, the anterior one scarcely one diameter from the front margin. 



Cephalothorax, abdomen and hand of palps olivaceous brown, ce- 

 phalothorax with a darker longitudinal band in the middle, palps (the 

 band excepted) and mandibles pale rosy, legs greyìsh white. 



Cephalothorax a little longer than broad, nearly parallelsided, be- 

 fore the eyes a little narrower, the upper surface more stronglv vaulted 

 than usuai, front margin slightly convex, in the centrai part some- 

 what depressed, but without a tooth; smooth and glossy, with some 

 dispersed, long and pointed hairs. 



Abdomen smooth and glossy with some long and pointed hairs 

 along the hinder margins of the sclerites. 



Palps about as long as the body, when the abdomen is contracted, 

 smooth and glossy, except the hand, being slightly shagreened. The 

 hairs of the inner side of femur somewhat longer than those of the 

 outer side, the other hairs of the palps rather equal in length. — 

 Trochanter with a short stalk, little longer than wide, the inner side 

 convex, the outer side with a low tubercle near the extremity. Femur 

 stalked, longer than cephalothorax, somewhat curved upwards and 

 forwards, nearly parallelsided, behind somewhat widened from the 

 stalk, the outer side distinctly concave, the inner side slightly convex. 

 Tibia stalked, much shorter than femur, the outer side slightly ànd 

 regularly convex, the inner side slightly and gradually widened from 

 the stalk, the inner side being nearly straight; the membrane pas- 

 sing about midway backwards, the stalk excepted. Hand with a short 

 stalk, from somewhat oblique base on the outer side moderately convex, 

 on the inner side very strongly so, a little longer than wide, gra- 

 dually passing into the fingers. These are a little longer than the 

 hand, very little curved or nearly straight, on the inner margin of 

 the fixed finger with robust, triangular, acute teeth, in the distai 

 half alternately high and low, in the proximal half becoming lower 

 and of more equal height ; the teeth are not sitting dose together, 

 but separated from one another about as much as a tooth's breadth, 

 the proximal teeth, however, being somewhat nearer to each other. 

 On the moveable finger the teeth of the distai one third part are very 

 slender and pointed, of equal height and separated more than a tooth's 

 width from one another, proximally the teeth are growing lower and 

 lower, more indistinct, at last quite vanishing.
