Selenops. Die Weibchen verfertigen nicht, wie die der Gattung Selenops, einen

heften die Eier an einen beliebigen Gegenstand fest und bedecken sie mit 
einer Hülle von dünnen, feinen zarten (parchment-like) Seidenfäden. Pocock,

Friula nov. gen. fam. Gasteracanthidarum (Abdomen diamond-shaped, the anterior 
angle truncated and the exterior ones each prolonged into a long, strong, 
cylindrical, granulose lateral spine-like projeetion, directed rather backwards 
and enlarged or elavate at the extremity, which ends in a group of six or 
seven small conical prominences. The length of each of these spiny 
projections exceeds the width of the abdomen. The whole surface of the 
abdomen is chitinous like Gasteracantha) Pickard-Cambridge, 0. Proc.
