176 Mr. E. I. Pocock on new Genera and 



Pinang (Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1892, p. 279), in the structure 

 of its legs, but differing in size {cf. measurements), colour, 

 and probably in many other characters. 



$ . Colour reddish brown, clothed with yellowish hairs. 

 Carapace not high, flattish, a little longer than wide; eyes 

 decreasing in size in the following order — ant. median, ant. 

 lateral, post, lateral, post, median ; fovea strongly crescentic, 

 small, narrower than the ocular tubercle. 



Zya/?/wm much wider than long; its width less than half 

 the length of the posterior edge of the maxilla, and only a 

 little greater than the width of the ocular tubercle. Sternum 

 wide, oval, width between the posterior impressions about 

 equal to the length of the labium. 



Mandible with strikers composed of a relatively small 

 number of stout, apically filiform setae situated close to the 

 fringe of red hairs, and passing above into fine whitish hairs ; 

 the area on which the fang closes bounded externally with 

 15 teeth, and granular behind. 



Palp with the keys or notes composed of a thick cluster 

 (3 or 4 rows) of clavate apically-pointed rods. 



Legs unarmed, except for a few (1 or 2) spines at the apex 

 of the protarsi ; long and slender ; scopulse normal, that on 

 the protarsus of the third covering two thirds of the segment; 

 that on the tarsus of the fourth divided by a very fine line of 

 setse ; patella and tibia of fourth longer than of first ; pro- 

 tarsus of fourth longer than protarsus and tarsus of first. 



Measurements in millimetres. — Length of carapace 20, 

 width 17'5; length of abdomen 25, of palp 35, of first leg 

 55, second leg 48, third leg 46*5, fourth leg 68, of posterior 

 spinner 11 '5. 



Log. East Indies. A single specimen. 



Genus Selenotypus, nov. 

 Selenotypus plumipes^ sp. n. (PI. X. figs. 2-2 h.) 



? . Colour a uniform reddish brown, covered with brownish- 

 red hairs, those ou the three distal segments of the posterior 

 legs long. 



Carapace considerably longer than broad, radiating grooves 

 conspicuous ; head-region high ; fovea very strong, crescentic, 

 the area around it slightly depressed, wider than the ocular 

 tubercle ; ocular tubercle elevated, not wide, running right 

 up to the edge of the carapace, so that there is no true clypeus, 

 the distance between the anterior median eye and the front 

 edge of the tubercle nearly or perhaps quite twice the diameter 

 of the eye ; the anterior eyes about equidistant from each 

 other, the distances being about equal to the diameter of the
