for the p;reater part of its len<i-th, but its apical end is dilated. 

 A number of conical granules and [)roce.sses are })resent: 

 on its dorsal surface, and there are also two or three conical 

 granules on the inner side below ; one of the processes on the 

 outer side of the dorsal surface and one of the two which are 

 present on the dorsal surface of the enlarged distal part of 

 the segment are considerably longer than the others. 

 Second segment greatly swollen and furnished with several 

 tooth-like processes and granules on its dorsal surface, two 

 or three of them being bilid apically ; this segment has alsj 

 a single tooth-like process below. 



Palp with the segments normal in shape and armed with 

 long spines. Trochanter with a tooth-like granule and a 

 long pointed process on its dorsal surface ; ventrally this 

 segment has a long pointed process and sometimes also a 

 little granule. Femur with two or three longitudinal series 

 of granules above ; on its lower surface it has a row of six 

 spines, the distal one being placed at some distance from the 

 others; there are also two spines on the inner side of the 

 femur at its distal end. Patella armed with two inner and 

 one outer spine. Tibia with three inner and four outer 

 spines. Tarsus with three spines on each side. 



Legs. — Trochanters of anterior legs furnished with one or 

 two granules below. Femur of first leg unarmed ; femur of 

 fourth leg almost straiglit. The number of tarsal segments 

 is as follows : — 8-9, 19, 7, 8. The claws of the posterior 

 legs are unarmed. 



Colour. — Dorsal surface dark brownish and usually marked 

 with blackish reticulate markings. With the exception of 

 the first one the sternites also are rather dark brownish ; but 

 the first sternite and the coxaj are much paler in colour. 

 Proximal segment of chelicera rather extensively darkened 

 and the second segment has dark reticulate markings on the 

 sides. Proximal segments of palp extensively infuscatcd, 

 but the distal segments are either quite pale or only slightly 

 darkened here and there. Legs brownisli, but they become 

 paler distaliy, and the distal ends of their metatarsi and the 

 entire length of the tarsi are whitish. 



Measurements in mm. — Length of trunk ?i'15, of scutum 3, 

 of fourth leg (from base of femur) 13' 75. 



Material. — Three male specimens, collected by Capt. S. S. 

 Flower at Ciiantaboon, iSiam.
