South African Araclinida. 1B9 



The following is a list of the localities from which the Museum has 

 obtained specimens : — 



Cape Div. {a) Cape Peninsula. U. lineatus is very common under 

 stones, etc., on the hills and mountain sides throughout the Peninsula, 

 but on the sandy Flats it is much more rarely met with. It is often 

 found also in gardens, and sometimes even in houses, in Cape Town 

 itself. The abdomen has five longitudinal yellow stripes or rows of 

 yellow marks, viz., one median, one on each lateral margin, and one 

 between these on each side. The three middle yellow stripes are 

 generally divided into an anterior and posterior part by a patch of 

 black in each of the posterior or in all the tergites, or the inner 

 lateral stripes * are represented in the posterior segments by a pair 

 of > < marks. The median keel is also generally infuscated. 

 Cephalothorax strongly blackened, with a number of yellow stripes- 

 and marks. Vesicle ochre-yellow, with or without faint infuscate 

 marks. Enlarged terminal tooth of superior caudal crests in 

 segments 2 and 3 in the S' conical and very strong at base, slenderer 

 towards the apex, where it is sharply pointed and curved in one or 

 both segments. In the 2 the terminal tooth is smaller, conical and 

 mostly pointed but generally not curved at the apex. The boundary 

 line between the lateral and inferior surfaces in segment 5 is more or 

 less distinct and marked, at least posteriorly, by a row of granules. 

 The pectinal teeth vary from 17-20 in the J and from 18-21 in 

 the 3' . Large ; length of largest ^ 45, 5 45 ; length and width of 

 fourth caudal segment in <? 5, 2-6, in J 4, 2-7. In the largest males, 

 this segment is less than twice (generally about 1 j%) as long as wide, 

 but in smaller (immature ?) males it is stouter, often only If times as 

 long as wide. 



Paarl Div. (h) French Hoek : 4 ? and juv. (TF. F. Purcell), re- 

 sembling those from the Cape Peninsula. 



Stellenbosch Div. (c) Jonkershoek : 1^,3 $ , and 3 juv. (W. F. 

 Purcell), resembling the specimens from the Cape Peninsula. 



Tulbagh Div. {d) North end of the Eoode Zands Mountains : 1 ? 

 {W. F. Purcell), resembling the specimens from the Cape Peninsula. 



Worcester Div. (e) Slanghoek : 2 (3" , 19 ? , and 4 juv. {B. Francke, 

 W. F. Purcell), resembling the specimens from the Cape Peninsula,, 

 but the fourth caudal segment about 2^-^ as long as wide in ^ . 

 Length of largest ^ 38, length and width of fourth caudal segment. 

 4-4, 2-1. 



* In specimens from the Cape Town slope of Signal Hill these lateral stripes 

 (but not the median stripe) are frequently continuous throughout the segments,, 

 and not at all or scarcely interrupted by black bars.
