PARAMIGAS, gen. nov. 
‘arapace smooth and polished, moderately elevated, the 
area between the fovea and the eyes horizontal, a little longer 
than broad, the greatest width equal to the area between the 
eyes and the posterior border; cephalic region a little wider 
than the distance between its front border and the apex of 
the fovea. ovea triangularly recurved, trifid as in Myrtale, 
but each of the side-branches only equal in length to half the 
width of the ocular area; the impressions at the inner ends 
of the cephalic grooves shallow. 
Ocular area transversely oblong, twice as wide as long, the 
two lines about equal; the anterior slightly procurved, the 
median eyes of the anterior row a little larger than the lateral, 
round, separated by a space which is about equal to their 
radius, but separated from the lateral, which are oval, by a 
space almost equal to their diameter; the posterior lateral 
eyes about as large as the anterior lateral and separated from 
them by a narrow space, which is less than halt their short 
diameter ; posterior median small, round, about half the size 
of the lateral, with which they are almost in contact; distance 
between the anterior lateral eye and the edge of the clypeus 
equal to a little less than its long diameter. 
Mandibles short, their upper surface rather abruptly sloped 
downwards from the base, inner surface flat, outer surface 
strongly inflated below ; the lower surface, which is fringed 
externally and internally with long sete, armed with two 
rows of teeth, 6 on the outer and 5 on the inner, those of the 
latter row the largest, except for the posterior tooth of the 
outer which is very long. ang closing obliquely inwards 
and backwards, occupying a position intermediate between 
that which is typical of the Mygalomorphe and the Arachno- 
morphe; short, stout, with two cutting-edges, of which the 
external is serrulate, and two strong crests running along its 
convex surface. 
Mazille with distinct though short apophysis, not hollowed 
basally for the reception of the labium, with a thick scopula 
along its anterior (inner) border, and the anterior half of its 
lower surface covered from base to apex with about 50 
scattered spicules. 
Labium soldered with sternum and lying in almost the 
same plane, the two separated by a smooth area, armed in its
