bright yellow-brown stripe of the same colour as on the cephalo- 
thorax. The under side of the abdomen is yellow-brown, with 
a faint shield-pattern marked out by paler side-lines and two 
similarly coloured parallel lines inside. 
The cephalothorax is moderately high in front, being two-thirds 
as high as broad in that part and rather more than half as broad 
as in its widest part ; the median line slightly slopes upwards as 
far as the rear end of the longitudinal fovea, whence it falls 
steeply down. 
The front row of eyes is recurved or straight along the upper 
edge, the median pair being their diameter apart; the laterals 
are two-thirds the diameter of the median and the same distance 
away from them. ‘The clypeus is twice as broad as one median 
and lateral eye with the space between them. The eyes of the 
second row are a diameter apart, larger than the front median and 
their diameter from them. The eyes of the third row are as large 
as the second, on rather large prominences, and 5 diameters apart. 
The mandibles are as long as the width in front of the cephalo- 
thorax, and have one small and three large teeth on the inner 
margin of the falx-sheath, with one large between two small on 
the outer. 
The lip is slightly broader than long, straight in front and 
half the length of the maxille. 
The sternwm is nearly round, and thickly covered with short 
downlying hair. 
The abdomen is ovate, straight in front, with four prominent 
muscle-spots in the anterior half above, with short decumbent hair. 
The epigyne of the female is oval, the inside oval hollows being in 
the anterior part of the arch. 
The palpi ave longer than the cephalothorax, and the tibial 
joint is longer than the patella. 
The legs are covered with smooth decumbent hair, and there is 
a not very thick scopula on the tarsus and metatarsus of all legs.
