No. 1.] ANT-LIKE SPIDERS OF THE FAMILY ATTIDJE. 33 



hairs are directed forward ; on the thoracic they are arranged 

 in lines, which converge at a central spot just behind the dor- 

 sal eyes ; on the abdomen they are directed backward. The 

 falces are dark, rugose and iridescent, especially near the prox- 

 imal end, and have some white hairs on the upper surface. 

 The palpi are dark brown. The first leg has the femur, the 

 proximal two-thirds of the tibia, the metatarsus and the tarsus 

 dark and iridescent. The second leg has the femur white, 

 with a dark line on the antei'ior face, and the other joints light 

 brown. The third and fourth legs are brown, the femoral 

 being darker than the other joints.

 The cephalothorax is ver}^ high in the cephalic part, and 

 rounds oiT quite abruptly behind the dorsal eyes, the thoracic 

 part being much lower. There is a constriction in the thorax 

 just in front of the insertion of the third pair of legs, behind 

 which the sides widen out and then narrow again, toward the 

 posterior end. The quadrangle of the eyes is one-fourth wider 

 than long, wider behind than in front, occupying about one- 

 third of the cephalothorax. The anterior eyes are all close 

 together, in a straight row, the middle being twice as large as 

 the lateral. The second row is nearer the first than the third 

 row. The dorsal eyes are larger than the lateral and are placed on 

 the side of the cephalothorax. There are five bristles in the eye- 

 region, three over the first row, and one on each side, just in
