apical bristles of this latter segment extend to (respectively beyond) the apex of the 

 fourth segment, which segment is only a little longer than it is broad. The fifth 

 hindtarsal segment has three or fonr lateral bristles, the unmber differing frequently 

 in the right and left legs, and the true inner edge of the segment (in slide usually 

 anterior) has often only three bristles, when the outer (in slide posterior) bears four. 

 It is the third bristle which varies. 



Modi fii'd Segments.— S. The eighth tergite has three small bristles above the 

 stigma, and the sternite a row of five or six long ones, below and proximally to 

 which there are five or six smaller bristles. The process (P) of the clasper (text- 

 fig. 17) is broad and non-sinuate, bearing a number of slender bristles at the upper 

 edge and a transverse, curved, lateral row of five very long ones. The movable 

 process (F) is of the type exhibited by C. caucasica. Its ventral edge is gently 

 incurved, not angulate, while the dorsal edge is elbowed opposite the tip of the 

 non-movable process P, being incurved proximally to this angle, and convex

between it and the slightly dentiform distal angle. F is provided with ten to 

 thirteen short, pointed bristles along the dorsal edge between the dorsal angle and 

 the tip, and with six long bristles at the ventral edge, there being also some slender 

 bristles veutrally at the tip and a number of other small bristles on both the 

 inner and outer surfaces. These small bristles are particularly numerous on the 

 inner side. The ninth sternite is sub-acnminate, the dorsal edge of the ventral 

 arm being nearly straight and the distal jiortion of the ventral edge rounded. 

 There is a row of three to five long and slender bristles veiitriiUy near tlic apex of 

 this sulerite, and about sixteen small bristles distributed over the sides and the 

 edges of its apical half. The anal tergite has on each side about a dozen bristles, 

 the most proximal ones being placed at a short distance from tiie base of the 

 segment and tiiere being near the aj)ex one longer one on each side. The anal 



tergite bears only a pair of long bristles on each side. ?. The seventh sternite 



has a dee]) sinus as in C<. iriodoiduH, but the sinus is (text-fig. 18) narrower than in 

 that species. The lobe situated above it is variable in width. The segment bears
