ANT-LIKE SPIDERS FROM MALAYA. 301 



visible from above, length > 4 caput, upper edge strongly convex 

 being subangular at j, length = 2 breadth. From above edges 

 subparallel, outer being slightly convex. Upper teeth 6, 1 basal 

 close to root of unguis, small and liable to be missed ; 2.3.4.5 

 largest with increasing spaces, 6 beyond angle very small. Lower 

 teeth 6, strong, close, from base of unguis to level with 5 of 

 upper. Thickish ligiit upper scopula longest at angle; thin dark 

 lower. Unguis rather strong. Colour lighter than cephalo- 

 'thorax, glabrous. 



Text- figure 7. 



d 



Myrmarachne cuneata, sp. n., $ . 

 a. Profile, h. Epigyne. 



Maxillce. — Length = c^ + tr^ = f alx nearly. Outer edges parallel 

 to end of labium, then inclined straight outwards to rounded 

 outer corner. Serrula at end only, which is slightly rounded. 

 Truncation long, veiy oblique, with very strong black scopula. 

 Below scopula inner edge hollowed in front and at side of labium. 

 Colour light. 



Labiimi. — Length > 2 breadth, parallel sides, slightly con- 

 stricted at middle ; strong dark scopula. 



Palpi. — Spring fi-om near base of maxilla. Tr = width 

 maxilla ; f = ^ caput, parallel sides, rounded ends, flattened, 

 length < 3 breadth ; p := ^ f, broadening to apex from narrow 

 base. Ti < 2 p, broadens from base to apex, which is 2 width p 

 apex. Ta very slightly > ti, rounded end ; the two together 

 making a plate := 2 f, hairy on both edges. Total length of 

 palpus when extended =2 falx. 



Legs. — Order 4.1.3.2, with all diflterences marked. 

 1st. c white, length = 2| Avidth, parallel or very slightly 

 tapering, 

 tr white, with sometimes dark patch on outer side ; breadth
