Sternum. — Truncated between Ci . 1, ^hich are about \ width 

 apart, swells out between other c, especially between C2.3, which 

 are only a little wider than the others, tapers with undulating 

 sides to a sharp but rather short point in front of C4 . 4, which are 

 in sub -contact. 



Pedicel. — Short but distinctly visible from above, j, as seen 

 from above distinctly longer than j.^. 1st upper lorum decreases 

 backwards, where it is procurved, much broader than 2nd. 

 Whole length of pedicel < 2 greatest width. It is received into 

 a short socket projecting from opisthosoma. 



Opisthosoma. — Egg-shaped, widest about |. Above general 

 colour dark greenish brown, below somewhat light, the front of 

 epigastric fold yellowish, corneous, behind a longitudinal lighter

 apex. Unguis slightly < paturon and with distinct prominence. 

 Teeth, upper 4 all in basal half and are close to base of unguis ; 

 lower 15 partly alternate in size. 



Palpi. — Tibia := tarsus. Fovea only occupies basal half of
