behind, and occupies one-half of the cephalothorax. The 

 clypeus is only one-fourth as high as tlie anterior middle eyes. 

 The falces are vertical and moderately stout and are not so long 

 as \n flavescms, being scarcelj' longer than the face. 



The cephalothorax in our specimen is badly rubbed. It 

 does not show any of the yellow hairs that are seen in flavescens. 

 There are narrow white bands low down on the sides. The 

 cephalic part has two white spots on each side, one in front of 

 and one behind the dorsal eye. The anterior half of the 

 thoracic part is covered with white hairs. The clypeus has a 

 thin covering of white hairs. The falces are dark brown. 

 The abdomen has a curved white band around the anterior 

 end and two elongated white spots in the middle of the anterior 

 part, which is otherwise covered with yellow hairs. An angular 

 white band crosses the dorsum just behind the middle. Be- 

 hind this is a black space and then a wide band of yellow hairs 

 with a small black chevron in the middle. The posterior end 

 is black with a white spot in the middle and one on each side. 

 The legs are brown, marked with black, the first pair darkest ; 

 all the tarsi and metatarsi are lighter colored than the other 

 joii:its. The palpi are yellow, thinly covered with white hairs. 



We have a single female from Trinidad, sent to us by Mr. 

 Broadway.

 5 . Length, 4.9. Length of cephalothorax, 2.2 ; width of 

 cephalothorax, 1.1. 

 Legs, 4312 ; nearly equal in thickness. 

 The cephalothorax is long, low and flat, and is widest at 

 the posterior end. The sides are vertical in front, and a lit- 

 tle rounded out behind. The first row of eyes is straight, the 

 eyes being close together. The middle are a little less than 

 twice as large as the lateral. The second row is slightly nearer 

 the third than the first. The third row is scarcely narrower 

 than the cephalothorax at that place. The clypeus is narrow. 

 The falces are vertical, moderately long and rather stout.
