56 MK. C. J. WITH ON SOME NEW SPECIES OF 



Ahdomen. — The fairly long and slender abdomen, which has all the tergites 

 with the exception of the eleventh longitudinally divided, has its sclerites 

 indistinctly shagreened, but the interstitial membranes, but especially the 

 sides o£ the abdomen, distinctly (jranula?' with pointed granules ; the tergites 

 have about twelve slightly clavate hairs along the hindmost margin in 

 addition to four in front of the row. On the last seo-ments no " tactile " 

 hairs observed in not well-preserved specimen. 



Ante7ince. — The slender galea, which possesses about five terminal teeth, 

 extends distinctly beyond the terminal hair. The fiagellum consists of three 

 hairs, of which the anterior is marginally serrated. 



Palps (PI. 8. figs. &-^^. — The maxilke are smooth in the middle at least, 

 while the palps are granular on the trochanter posteriorly, and less distinctly 

 on anterior surfaces of the three following joints. The long or very long 

 hairs are pointed, broken or straight, with a single or a few teeth. The 

 trochanter, which is 1'6 as long as wide, is anteriorly moderately convex, 

 and posteriorly fairly distinctly produced ; dorsally it is prolonged into a 

 rather deep, somewhat conical protuberance, so that the whole joint appears 

 slightly bigibbose. The femur, which has a short well-defined stalk (beyond 

 which the joint is only in a slight degree attenuated), is 2'1 as long as wide ; 

 the anterior outline is moderately convex and then concave, while the poste- 

 rior is beyond the stalk abruptly convex, then in the middle straight and 

 towards the end slightly convex. The tibia, which has a fairly long and 

 well-defined stalk, is somewhat longer and wider than the femur, and 2'2 as 

 long as wide ; anteriorly it is first slightly convex and then terminally a 

 little concave^ while the posterior outline is almost straight beyond the con- 

 dylus and fairly well-marked basal elevation and then terminally moderately 

 convex. The chela, which is 3'3 as long as wide, is scarcely as broad as 

 the trochanter is long ; the hand, which is about as long as the tibia and 

 1'2 as wide, is 1"9 as long as wide, a little wider than deep, and 1'3 as long 

 as the fingers, which are much longer than the hand is deep, and scarcely 

 gape when closed ; the posterior and the dorsal margins of the hand are 

 slightly convex, and the anterior and ventral areas are almost straight. 

 Anteriorly no accessory teeth were observed, but posteriorly the immovable 

 has four and the movable six. The number of " spots " is very insignificant, 

 viz. four anteriorl}'- as well as posteriorly on the immovable finger, and none 

 on the movable (figs. 7 & 8). 



Coxce. — The second and the third pair are somewhat triangularly formed, 

 as the interior margin is only short ; the fourth pair are somewhat widened 

 out towards the extremity, distinctly longer than wide, with inner margin 

 much shorter than hinder and fairly well distinguished from it. 



Legs. — The proximal joints are almost smooth. The hairs are dorsally 

 fairly long and pointed, with a single or a few teeth, but ventrally more or 

 less simple. The tarsal '■' tactile'' holr is two-fifths removed from the base.
