on the fore side of the femora of the first three pairs. Colour 

 pale yellow-brown. 



Palpi similar to the legs in colour ; the ordinary bristle from 

 the fore extremity on the upper side of the cubital joint, long 

 straight, tapering, and almost of a spinous nature ; numerous 

 hairs and bristles at the extremity of the digital joint, and some 

 of them spinous. 



Falces, maxilloB, labium, and sternum dark yellow. 



Abdomen oblong-oval, thinly clothed with short hairs, and of a 

 dull yellowish-brown colour no doubt much faded. Genital 

 aperture and process very characteristic. (See PI. A, Fig. 1 1).

Lophomma stativum, Sim. Pi. A, Figs. 19, 20, 21. 



Adult male, length i line ; length of female rather over i line. 



Cephalothorax nearly as long as broad, fore part much the 

 narrowest and rounded, hinder extremity truncate. Lateral 

 marginal impressions slight, upper convexity moderate and 

 even ; the height of the clypeus exceeds half that of the facial 

 space, and it is rather prominent at its lower margin, but 

 impressed above. Colour deep brown. 



Eyes sub-equal. Those of the posterior row form a straight 

 line ; the interval between the hind-centrals considerably 

 exceeds an eye's diameter, and is rather greater than that 

 between each and the hind-lateral next to it. The four centrals 

 form nearly a square. 



Legs rather short, 4, i, 2, 3, furnished with hairs only. Colour 

 bright reddish-orange. 



Palpi short, colour dull yellow-brown to dark brown, furnished 

 with coarse hairs ; radial joint slightly shorter, but stronger than 

 the cubital, and spreading at its fore extremity. The outer side 

 of the radial joint is produced at its fore extremity into a strong 

 apophysis, rather less in length than the joint itself, slightly 

 curved, and its end broad and rounded. The digital joint is 

 rather large, somewhat roundish, with its posterior extremity a
