to side, the former dimension measured laterally, the latter 
from above. 
The tibia measures ‘22 mm. long and ‘13 mm. broad. At 
its distal end on the outer side it bears a subtriangular, 
pointed, semitransparent apophysis projecting obliquely for- 
wards and outwards, and measuring ‘045 mm. as seen from 
above. 
The palpal organs are rounded and convex. They show a 
small hook-like process between the middle and the apex, the 
tip of the hook being directed inwards. On the inner side 
near the apex is a corueous process, ending in a sharp point 
projecting forwards and outwards. A little white glistening 
membrane occupies the extreme apex of the palpal organs. 
Legs.—Coxee and ¢rochanters yellow-brown with dark 
brown markings. Femora dark brown, with the exception of 
the basal halves of the four anterior ones, which are yellow- 
brown. 
Femora 1. and ii, each bear two spines above, one near tlie 
base and one near apex at the inner side. 
Femur ili. also bears two spines, one on the distal and the 
other on the proximal third. : 
Femur iv. only shows the proximal spine. 
All the remaining articles are dark brown. 
‘Tibie and metararsi i, and i. clothed beneath with long 
hairs and bearing no long spines. 
Tibia and metatarsi iil. and iv. each bear several pairs of 
long spines below ; these are more or less concealed among 
the long hairs clothing the part, and are difficult to count. 
Tarsi all scopulate, the four anteriors much more thickly 
so than the four posteriors. 
Abdomen dark brown, almost black, sparsely covered with 
scattered, thick, iridescent hairs which do not form a pattern. 
There are faint indigations of a pair of yellow-brown spots on 
the anterior third, followed by several chevron markings. 
Spinners.— Upper spinners yellow-brown, lower spinners 
almost black.

There was no indication that any of the immature specimens 
belonged to any species not included in the above list, but, of 
course, it is quite impossible to be sure.
