eyes prominent. Lateral eyes on each side contiguous, on a common 
prominent tubercle. Posterior row of eyes strongly procurved. 
Clypeus much narrower than the eye area; but little exceeding 
diameter of an anterior eye. 
Labium not discrete from sternum; wider than long. 
Femur I with three very short ventral spines in a series, five longer, 
stouter spines along anteroventral surface; tibia I with two ventral 
spines, five on anterior surface and two on the posterior. Femur II 
with six ventral spines; tibia II moderately incrassate, with two stout 
ventral spines and on anterior surface with two series of short, stout 
spines, six in each series. Femur III unarmed beneath. Femur IV 
beneath with a series of about eight, mostly very short, spines. Tro- 
chanter IV in type with a single stout spine beneath. Coxa I witha 
hook as in related genera. Posterior tarsi setose beneath; with some 
accessory claws or stout seriate bristles at the distal end. 
Abdomen elongate; much extended caudad beyond the spinnerets 
which are ventral and submedian in position and with a conspicu- 
ous cylindrical slender caudal process; with spinous points above 
at proximal end and near base of caudal process. 
Coxa of pedipalp (male) with a cone-shaped spur distally and sents 
with the usual chitinous ridge. Patella with a single apical spine. 
Tarsal sheath with a strongly chitinized non bifid process at base. 
Genotype.— Anawixia atopa, sp. nov. 
Differing from Cyclosa, in the wider separation of the posterior 
median eyes, and in the spining of the legs. 
ANAWIXIA ATOPA,! sp. nov. 
Plate 20, fig. 1-3. 
Carapace with thoracic part black, the head yellow. Sternum 
blackish over a yellow background; labium and endites similar except 
at tips which are clear yellow. Chelicera yellowish, dusky especially 
proximally. Leg I with femur dusky beneath, deeper black distad, 
yellowish above; patella black; distal joints yellowish or the tibia 
somewhat dusky or black distad. Other legs with the femora yellow 
except at distal end where dusky or black, and two less distinct dark 
rings, one at middle and one more proximad, the tibiae black at 
distal end beneath as in Leg I. Abdomen blackish; dorsum with a 
1 &ro7os, strange.
