320 Rev. O. P. Cambridge on a new 



articulated to tubercles : the femora, especially of the first and 

 second pairs, are strongly curved and hollowed or flattened 

 inside : all the legs are furnished with hairs and bristles ; of 

 the latter there is a small group or tuft of prominent ones 

 under the femoral joints of each of the first, second, and fourth 

 pairs of legs, and the basal joints of each of the first three 

 pairs has a patch of small, prominent, red-brown tooth-like 

 spines at its base, close to the hinder angle : the tarsi end with 

 two superior, strong, curved claws, each with a single strongish 

 unidenticulate tooth towards its base on the underside, and 

 an inferior curved claw, short, and of a nearly conical form ; 

 these terminal claws spring from a small supernumerary or 

 claw-joint ; the tarsi of the first two pairs are very short, not 

 much exceeding half the length of those of the third and 

 fourth pairs ; and none of them is furnished with a scopula. 



The palpi are strong, moderately long, similar in colour to 

 the legs, and furnished with hairs and bristles ; the humeral 

 joints are much bent and flattened on their inner sides ; the 

 digitals are shorter, and less strong, than the radial joints, and 

 each terminates with a curved unidenticulate claw. 



The falces are strong and massive, but moderate in length 

 and not very prominent ; they are similar to the cephalothorax 

 in colour, but have no spines at the fore extremity on the 

 upperside. 



The maxillce are not very long, but strong, cylindrical, and 

 very divergent ; each has its fore extremity on the inner side 

 rather subangularly prominent ; and the greater part of their 

 exterior surface is pretty thickly studded with small red-brown, 

 tooth-like, prominent spines, rather stronger, but of a similar 

 nature to those on the basal joints of the legs ; the colour of 

 the maxillae is a reddish yellow-brown. 



The labium is rather small, of a somewhat curviangular 

 form at its apex, a little constricted towards its base, and 

 marked off from the sternum by a strongish transverse, slightly 

 curved indentation ; its colour is similar to that of the maxilla?, 

 and the outer surface of the upper half is, like them, also 

 studded with similar, but rather stronger denticulations. 



The sternum is large, flat, of a somewhat oval form, and 

 increases gradually in width from the labium to its hinder 

 extremity ; its colour is a yellowish brown, tinged with olive. 



The abdomen is of moderate size, pretty convex above, pro- 

 jects considerably over the base of the cephalothorax, and is 

 of a purplish brown colour ; its surface has a somewhat coria- 

 ceous and rugulose appearance ; it is thinly clothed with hairs, 

 and is pretty thickly studded above and on the sides with small 

 roundish tubercles, some of which have a shining appearance,
