hairs upon the posterior side of the trochanter of the palp (a 
few also on the base of its femur), also upon the inner side 
of the femur of the first leg as in Brachypelma, but on the 
anterior side of the trochanter of the first leg the plumose 
scopula present in that genus is almost entirely replaced by 
basally stout and apically filiform spines; hairs on the 
anterior side of the coxa almost wholly converted into 
similar spines both above and below the suture. Also on 
the posterior side of the coxa of the palp there are similar 
spines intermixed with the hairs both above and below 
the naked area, while near the middle of the base of this 
area there is a small cluster of spines. 
The spines on the coxee suggest those of Citharacanthus, but 
in the latter they are considerably stouter and do not replace 
the normal clothing of slender hairs below the suture. More- 
over, there is in C7tharacanthus no scopula on the inner side 
of the femur of the first leg, and there are long delicately 
plumose spines rising amongst the scopular hairs on the 
trochanter of the palp, and large plumose spines on that of 
the first leg. 
Type Dugesiella crinita, sp. n. 
Dugestella crinita, sp. n. 
6 .—Colour: carapace, legs, and mandibles covered with 
olive-black hairs ; abdomen more intensely black ; legs above 
and below, sternum, and abdomen thickly hirsute with long 
foxy-red bristles. 
Carapace nearly as wide as long, a little shorter than pro- 
tarsus of fourth, and about as long as tibia and half the 
patella of this leg, as long as femur of fourth or of first and 
as patella+ tibia of palp ; cephalic area moderately high. 
Eyes of anterior line subequal; medians rather more than 
a diameter apart, rather less from the laterals. 
Legs 4, 1, 2, 3, fourth exceeding the first by about half its 
tarsus ; protarsus of first and second scopulate to base, without 
basal spines on first, and with one basal spine on second ; tibia 
of first not incrassate, with one external basal spine and two 
strong apical spines above the spur; upper spur cylindrical, 
obtuse, with a short straight spine below it; lower spur 
only lightly curved and armed with ashort blunt spine ;_ pro- 
tarsus strong]; arcuate. ‘Tibie of second, third, and fourth 
legs with only a few inferior spines; inner side of femur of 
first and of fourth and posterior side of trochanter of palp 
subscopulate with simple hairs. 
falp long, reaching nearly to end of tibia of first leg, its
