'I'ln- (Vplmlnii is considerably enlarged, and almost completely fills the interval 

 the first (xiir <>f lateral processes. 



The n.-nlar nil..-n-le is stout and tall, terminating in a cone above the four 

 well-devclojx'd eyes. It lies well to the front of the cephalon. 



The AMoraen is long, cylindrical, almost horizontal, and not separated from 

 the !HM|\ by an articulation. The extreme length and breadth of the trunk is as 

 6 to 5*5, the abdomen increasing the length to 7*5. The articulation of the trunk 

 is indistinct, that separating the last segment )>eing non-existent The entire body 

 apju'ars to be perfectly smooth. 



The Proboscis is about half the length of the trunk ; it lies underneath the 

 ci-phalon, directed obliquely downwards ; it is stout and cylindrical for the greater 

 part of its length, tapering off to a sharp cone. It is movably articulated to the 

 t rank. 



The Chelifori are rudimentary ; the scape is well developed, stout, not setose, a 

 little longer than the cephalon ; the chelae are reduced to a knob, inclined inwards at 

 an angle of about 45, with only the merest traces of fingers. 



The Palp is short and only possesses six joints. It rises close to the proboscis, 

 below and outside the chelifori (fig. 2a). The first joint is short and stout, and 

 the second is three times as long ; the third is again very small and, forming an 

 elbow, is shorter on one side than the other. The fourth is the longest joint, 

 though but little longer than the second, the only seta) visible forming a small 

 distal fringe. The following joint is characteristic ; it is small, and its inner margin 

 i- just half the length of it outer border; this outer border is well supplied with 

 setae distal ly. To the oblique termination of this joint the sixth and last joint 

 is articulated. It is twice the extreme length of its predecessor and richly setose on 

 its outer border and extremity. 



The Oviger is 10-jointed and rises ventro-laterally at the angle formed by the 

 first lateral process with the cephalon (fig. 2b). It is a short appendage ; the first 

 three joints are short and stout, the second and third are sub-equal in length, but 

 not in diameter, and nearly twice the length of the first ; the two following are the 

 longest joints, the fifth being a trifle longer than the fourth and sparingly setose ; 

 the sixth is short, the seventh is longer, and the three terminal ones progressively 

 decrease in length and diameter, the last one being very small. The last five joints 

 are sparingly supplied with setae. On the terminal joint there are three long and 

 stout ones. There is no terminal claw nor are there an) special spines. The ovigcr 

 of the male has not been removed, but does not differ essentially. 



The Legs measure some 18 mm. in length. The second coxa is fully as long as 

 the "tii.- 1 two together, and is much enlarged distally. The femur and first tibia are 

 sub-equal in length, and the second tibia is a very little longer; the tarsus and 

 I>r<>i>odu8 together are rather more than one- third the length of the second tibia. The 

 tarsus is very small and cup-like, richly setose ventrally, the set being stout, one
