Isopeda tepperi. 

 A, eyes of female ; B, profile. 



IsoPEDA TEPPERi, nov. sp, (Text-fig. 93.) 



This species differs very slightly from Thorell's and L. Koch's 

 description of Isopeda pessleri Thor. But it has no transverse 

 stripe behind the genital fold. In the Adelaide specimens the front 

 side-eyes in the female, as in the male, are somewhat larger than 

 the median, and the latter nearer to the side than to one another. 

 Two spines above on tibia iii. and iv. instead of one. In the 

 "Kangaroo Island female the front row eyes are all equal, and 

 tibia iv. has only one spine, which biings it still nearer to 

 /. pessleri. 



The cephalothorax is red-brown ; the mandibles, lip, and sternum 

 black-brown with yellowish hair and bristles. 



The sternum is black, with black hair extending over the two 

 front coxfe and partially over the two rear. 



The abdomen is yellowish-brown, with i-ather coarse matted 

 hair, three pairs of muscle-spots showing on the upper side, and a 

 slightly impressed shield-pattern on the under.
