situated over the intermediate teeth, the recurrent portion of shaft, 

 when seen from the side, ascending directly from the upper surface 

 of the terminal fang almost straight upwards (directed slightly- 

 back wards), and then strongly curving backwards sHghtly beyond its 

 middle ; seen from above and in front the recurrent portion appears 

 -doubly sinuate, being concave externally in the basal half and 

 internally in the distal half, the basal part stout, angular, and 

 somewhat triquetrous, the distal part slender, terete, and subulate.

Locojlity. — 1 3- (reg. no. 4,661) from Eities, in Gt. Bushmanland, 

 Kenhart Div., Cape Colony, captured by Mr. E, G. Alston. 



According to Mr. Alston, this species is diurnal. In general 

 appearance, particularly as regards the colour, the hairiness of the 

 legs, and the size, it much resembles spectralis Pure. It is, how- 

 ■ever, nearest related to sericea Poc, and belongs to the small group 

 •of diurnal species which have no wide interval between the teeth of 

 the single series, but have the hairs of the abdominal tergites darker 

 than those on the sides of the abdomen {sericea, fusca, &c.).
