No. 1.] ATTIDJ<: OF CENTRAL AMERICA. 89 



Our specimen has been badly rubbed. The cephalothorax is 

 dark brown, blackish on the cephalic plate, and seems to have 

 been covered with yellow hairs. The abdomen is of a light 

 bronze-color, with an encircling white band. Under alcohol 

 the back is light brown with several darker brown transverse 

 bands which are interrupted in the middle line. The legs are 

 brown, the first pair darker than the others, and covered with 

 short yellow hairs. The third and fourth legs have the distal 

 end of the femur much darker than the other parts. The palpi 

 are broken off. The falces are dark brown. 



We have a single male from the eastern part of Guatemala. 



ZYGOBALLUS REMOTUS, SP. NOV. 



Plate \ll, figs. 2-2a. 



S . Length, 4..3. Length of cephalothorax, 2 ; width of 

 cephalothorax, 1.7. 

 Legs, 1423 ; first pair stoutest. 



This is a dark-colored species, with the palpi and the first 

 pair of legs long, and the posterior three pairs of legs yellow. 



The cephalothorax is high and is widest at the dorsal eyes, 

 from which point there is a steep descent to the hinder margin. 

 The cephalic part is slightly convex and the sides are nearly 

 vertical. The quadrangle of the eyes is wider behind than in 

 front and occupies more than half of the cephalothorax. The 

 first row of eyes is straight. The middle eyes are about twice 

 as large as the lateral, and are close together, while the lateral 

 are separated from them. The second row of eyes is nearer 

 the first than the tliird. The third row is as wide as the 

 cephalothorax at that place. The falces are, like those of most 

 of the males of this genus, directed obliquely forward, with a 

 long fang, and have a vertical apophysis at the proximal end, 

 which terminates in a sharp tooth. 



The integument is smooth and is dark brown, deepening to 

 black on the cephalothorax. The ceplialothorax seems to have
