Genus Grammostola, Simon. 299 
much smaller than the laterals, about two diameters apart, 
separated from the laterals about a diameter; posterior 
medians much smaller than the anterior medians, but not 
very widely separated from them, closer to posterior laterals, 
which are smaller than the anterior laterals and separated 
from them by a space which is about equal to the short 
diameter of the latter. 
Stridulating organ as in the preceding species. Legs 
4,1, 2,3; patella+tibia i. equal to iv. 
Protarsus i. strongly arcuate, scopulated almost to base, 
with two apical and two basal spines ; protarsal scopula ii. 
covering # segment, with two spines at its base; of ii. 
covering 4, with many basal spines; of iv. covering about 3, 
which is elsewhere strongly spined; tibize of all the legs 
spined. Spurs of tibia i. well developed; the upper stout, 
straight, cylindrical, blunt, without rastellum, and bearing a 
long sinuous spine on its underside; the lower crescently 
cylindrical, curved, with a sharp tip. 
?.—Colour the same as in the male. Cephalothorax 
noticeably longer than wide (17: 14), longer than patella and 
tibia 1. oriv. Anterior median eyes more than two diameters 
apart and a little less from the laterals; posterior medians 
slightly smaller than the laterals.
