circular ; the lateral marginal impressions at the caput rather 

 stroDg, the anterior margin shghtly curvitruiieate ; upper convexity 

 moderate. Colour dull yellowish brown, paler on each side of the 

 fore part of the thorax, and the ocular area is suffused with dark 

 brown ; it is clothed with coarse grey hairs, mixed with some long 

 bristly reddish-brown ones on the caput. 



Eyes occupyiug the \\hole width of the fore part of the caput, 

 in two transverse curved rows, their convexity directed forwards ; 

 the anterior row is shortest but not greatly so and is rather moi'e 

 curved than the posterior. The fore-centrals are distinctly largest 

 of the eight, and separated by rather less than a diameter ; the 

 fore-laterals are sepai'ated by about half that space from the fore- 

 centrals ; the former are on a strong tubercle. The eyes of the 

 hinder row are about equally separated by nearly 2 diameters, 

 they are about equal in size but much smaller than those of the 

 anterior row. The central quadrangle is nearly a square, the fore- 

 side being rather the lougest. The hiud-laterals are also seated 

 on a strong tubercle. The height of the clypeus is about equal to 

 the diameter of the fore-central eyes. 



Le;/s long, moderately strong, 2-1-4-3 ; those of the second pair 

 are only slightly longer than the first, and the third and fourth 

 pairs much shorter than the first and second ; they are ai-med with 

 long, but not numerous spines ; a tolerably dense scopula beneath 

 the tarsi and metatarsi, and a compact claw-tuft beneath the 

 terminal claws. The colour of the legs is yellow-brown, the meta- 

 tarsi and tarsi much darker. 



Palpi moderately long and similar to the legs in colour ; on the 

 upperside of the fore-extremity of the humeral joints are some 

 short strong spines ; the cubital is about half the length of the 

 radial joint and somewhat clavate ; these joints are furnished with 

 loug bristles, one or two being of a more spinous nature ; at the 

 fore-exti'emity on the outer side is a moderately long, stoutish and 

 tapering, somewhat bent at its base, blackish-brown prominent 

 apophysis whose extremity forms a short curved hook-like point ; 

 close behind and below this apophysis there is a dense tuft of 

 longish, bent hairs. The digital joi?it is large, long and oval, more 

 than double the length of the radial joint, dark yellow-brown, and 

 clothed \\ith coarse hairs. The palpal organs are compact but 

 rather complex, and contained in an oval cavity near the middle 

 of the joint ; and among others a strong, curved, pale whitish 

 corneous process or spine issues from near the middle on the 

 inner side, and curving round by the inner margin of the joint 

 terminates just beyond their extremity. 



Falces powerful, prominent, gibbous and granulose in front, 

 and with some strong teeth on each side of the fang-groove ; 

 colour deep black-browu, \Aath strong prominent bristles in front. 



MaxiUce short, broad, broadest at their extremity and slightly 

 inclined towards the labium ; on the inner side at their extremity- 

 is a dense group of divergent bristly hairs ; colour deep brown. 



Labium broader than high, its height rather less than half the
