24 WOOD, 



base, grooved above, with the somewhat conical eyes so placed as to 

 give the appearance of two eye eminences joined together rather than 

 of a single one. Palpi with nqne of their angles prolonged, rather 

 short, proximally dark, distally light brown, with their proximal arti- 

 cles densely beset with very numerous spinules and with their maxil- 

 lary portion furnished with two lobe-like processes. Abdomen very 

 distinctly separated from the cephalothorax, distinctly segmented. 

 Venter proper smoothish, light grayish brown. Pectus and coxce with 

 very numerous small spines, of the same color as venter. Trochan- 

 ters dark brown with their inferior angles prolonged into a small incon- 

 spicuous spinous process. Legs very slender, proximally light brown, 

 distally somewhat darker, beset with numerous small blackish spin- 

 ules. Penis robust; distally rapidly expanded into a broad portion 

 whose very thin margins are bent upwards, so that with an equally 

 thin central keel they form a pair of grooves on the upper surface ; 

 afterwards contracted into a robust but finally slender acute point 

 placed at a slight angle to the main body of the organ.

REMARKS. Of this species I have seen one specimen, 

 taken by Dr. Leconte on the coast of California, Lat. . 

 30, 33' ; also two collected by Mr. William M. Gabb, of 

 the California State Geological Survey, in Nevada. The 

 measurements given above are taken from Dr. Leconte's 

 specimen, which was in such a condition that I could not 

 determine the sex positively. The other individuals were 

 males.
