Cephalothorax deep lake, passing into lake-black on borders 

 of eye area and sides. Hairs long, black, orange-red and 

 white ; former mostly on fore-part of caput ; clypeus fringe 

 somewhat sparse, whitish. Elevated, cephalic part plane, 

 inchned, limited by a very perceptible transverse depression ; 

 clypeus in height scarcely equal to radius of a lateral eye ; 

 thoracic part only moderately dilated, sides rather abrupt ; 

 scarcely one-third longer than cephalic part; dips at an 

 angle of 40deg. to stalk. 



Fyes do not differ essentially from males, except that in the 

 first row they are comparatively and actually rather closer to 

 each other. 



Falces lake-brown ; few white hairs ; transversely rugulose ; 

 of somewhat even breadth, project forwards at base, vertical ; 

 in length equal interspace between lateral eyes. 



MaxillcB chocolate-brown, inferior angle pale, few black 

 hairs ; dilated somewhat rapidly at second half, rounded. 



Labium three-fourths length of maxillae, similar colour, 

 conical. 



Sturnum light fulvous ; hairs sparse ; ovate. 



Legs yellow-brown — first pair somewhat suffused with 

 lake — three olive-brown annuli on femora, basal ring narrow, 

 central and apical broad ; indications of rings on patellary 

 joints, tibiae, basal, and pre-apical annulations; metatarsi 

 have basal and distal. Patella and tibia of first leg equal in 

 length, together one-fourth longer than metatarsus and tarsus. 

 Femoral and patellary joints armed with short, black spines; 

 tibiae of I. — II. have 2, 2 beneath second half, 1 side spine ; 

 metatarsi 4, 4 at each extremity ; tibiae of III. — lY. about 

 4 spines towards fore-end ; metatarsal joints 4 at base. 

 Tarsal claws — 1st pair, long, somewhat depressed in centre, 

 free end well curved ; outer claw 12 or more tolerably stout 

 teeth ; inner about 30 fine, close teeth ; claw-tuft dense, rather 

 longer than claw. 



Palpi colour and armature of legs. 



Abdomen ovate — somewhat more pointed than male — base 

 squarely truncated ; most of dorsal aspect occupied by a pale, 

 brownish fawn-coloured, crenate, lanceolate figure, stained 

 with blue-black ; median band extends from anus to anterior 

 fourth, represents a series of about five brown chevrons, of 

 irregular form, apices directed forwards, terminates with a 

 trapezoidal mark. Hairs, coarse black, white, and orange- 

 red, two latter tolerably thick, growing chiefly in angular 

 lines on dorsum ; somewhat sj^arse on lateral margins, which 

 are light brown, shading rapidly into black-brown about 

 border of folium. Vulva brownish-amber colour; slightly
