  Remarks. 
  — 
  A 
  large 
  male 
  specimen 
  (in 
  spirit) 
  collected 
  by 
  

   Capt. 
  Flower 
  at 
  Wady 
  Haifa 
  differs 
  from 
  all 
  others 
  of 
  this 
  

   species, 
  which 
  I 
  have 
  seen, 
  in 
  having 
  the 
  spinal 
  armature 
  of 
  

   the 
  tarsi 
  of 
  both 
  the 
  legs

  The

  of 
  the

  of 
  the

  is,

  In 
  all 
  other 
  details 
  

   both 
  of 
  colour 
  and 
  structure 
  this 
  specimen 
  agrees 
  with 
  some 
  

   quite 
  typical 
  specimens 
  of 
  G. 
  arabs 
  from 
  the 
  same 
  locality. 
  

   The 
  young 
  example 
  from 
  Shendy, 
  Sudan, 
  which 
  was 
  deter- 
  

   mined 
  by 
  Dr. 
  Tullgren* 
  as 
  G. 
  araneoides, 
  Pallas, 
  is, 
  perhaps, 
  

   only 
  an 
  aberration 
  of 
  G. 
  arabs, 
  similar 
  to 
  this 
  one 
  from 
  

   Wady 
  Haifa.
