Species of Oriental I^Iygalomorpliae. 173 



a clotliing of uniformly brownish-yellow hairs ; the longer 

 setre of very much the same tint. 



Carapace oval, considerably longer than wide, not very 

 high anteriorly, the radiating grooves well-marked ; tlie 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. Eijes of anterior row slightly 

 ])rocurved, 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 

 than the anterior lateral. 



MandihJe with 14 teeth along the outer edge of the lower 

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

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

 quite distinct from the fringe below the suture : proximally tlie 

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

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

 of small spiniform seta?, the other, nearer the oral fringe, of 

 stout distinct rods, which raj)idly decrease in length towards 

 the base of the segment. 



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

 its sides slightly converging, densely spinulose, its width 

 much greater than that of the ocular tubercle and greater than 

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

 between the coxaj of the iirst 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 seopulai ; 

 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 

 seta} in its basal half; ]jatella 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 ])rotarsus 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 vnllimetres. — 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 fuurth 74*5.
