Hab. Singapore ; 5 f ins., mud. Five small males and one female. 



In two of these the dark spot, on the end of the dactyls of the 

 last pair, is absent. Like Dr. de Man's Malacca examples (t. c.) 

 the middle teeth of the front project only as far as the middle 

 portion of the upper orbital margin. The teeth mentioned by 

 Dr. de Man as occurring on the distal end of the hind border of 

 the rueri of the last pair of legs are not readily distinguished in 

 these small examples, but they seem to be variable and not constant.
