Species of Oriental Mygalomorplige. 173 



a clotliing of uniformly brownisli-yellow hairs ; the longer 

 setfe of very much the same tint. 



Carapace oval, considerably longer than wide, not very 

 high anteriorly, the radiating grooves well-marked ; the fovea 

 strong, crescentic, a little wider than the ocular tubercle; 

 tubercle of medium size, scarcely a trace of any clypeal 

 border ; distance between anterior eyes and anterior edge 

 equal to about twice a diameter. Eyes of anterior row slightly 

 procurved, large, subequal, and equidistant from each other, 

 the distance between them distinctly less than the diameter of 

 a median eye ; eyes of posterior row straight, the two on each 

 side not very unequal in size, the lateral considerably smaller 

 tlian the anterior lateral. 



Mandible with 14 teeth along the outer edge of the lower 

 border, which is granular behind ; keys on tlie maxilla about 

 four rows deep distally, the rows near the oral (internal) fringe 

 quite distinct from the fringe below the suture : proximally the 

 keys are arranged in two distinct rows near the middle of the 

 segment ; one row, close to the external fringe, is composed 

 of small s]jiniform sette, the other, nearer the oral fringe, of 

 stout distinct rods, which rapidly decrease in length towards 

 the base of the segment. 



Lahium nearly square, only a little wider than long, with 

 its sides slightly converging, densely spinulose, its width 

 much greater tlian that of tiie ocular tubercle and greater than 

 tiiat of the fovea. Sternum a shade longer than wide, as wide 

 between the coxge of the first as of the third legs ; distance 

 between the posterior impressions almost equal to the width of 

 the labium. 



Legs long and slender, the first stouter than the fourth, but 

 a little shorter, all of them attenuate, with narrow scopulai ; 

 scopula on protarsus of third covering nearly the whole of the 

 segment, that on the fourth covering about half the segment 

 and divided ; that on the fourth tarsus divided by a band of 

 setee in its basal half; patella and tibia of fourth shorter than 

 of first and equal to length of carapace ; protarsus of fourth 

 just exceeding width of carapace and about equal to the 

 length of the protarsus and tarsus of the second leg ; patella 

 of second and of fourth about equal ; tarsus of fourth a little 

 longer than of first. Spinners as long as tibia of fourth. 



Measurements in millimetres. — Length of carapace 23'5, 

 width 20 ; length of sternum 10'2, width 10 ; length of 

 labium 3-5, width 4 ; length of palp 45, of first leg 70, of 

 second 62, of third 56, of fourth 74'5.
