Legs. — The hairs, which are fairly long or long, are either completely simple or 

 with a few terminal teeth ; long and slender, completely simple hairs were missing 

 except the tarsal " tactile " hair of the fourth pair, which is as long as the tarsus at 

 least and one-tenth removed from the base, and the ventral ones of the trochanters 

 and trochantins. The legs are rather short and clumsy ; the trochantin of the first 

 pair is much deeper than the femur proper, with a very wide articulate cavity, and 

 its tibia is 1-1 as long as the tarsus, which is 3-5 as long as deep ; the femur of the 

 fourth pair of legs is 2"3 as long as deep, I'S as long as the tibia, and at least 1'2 

 lower than tarsus is long. 



Colour. — Proximal joints of the palps are more yellowish brown and distal more 

 reddish brown ; the cephalothorax and tergal sclerites are brown or yellowish brown.

Female. 



Antennae. — The galea, which extends beyond the terminal hair, is fairly long and 

 slender, with about six terminal teeth, as figured by Balzan (lo. fig. 56 a). 



Palps. — The femur and the tihia are comparatively less slender, being 1-9 and 1-8 

 respectively as long as wide ; the hand is 1-7 as long as wide, distinctly 1-1 as wide as 

 deep, and 1-5 as long as fingers. 



Legs. — The legs are less slender, the femur of the fourth pair of legs 2-2 as long as 

 deep, 1*2 as long as the tibia, and scarcely 1-2 lower than tarsus is long.

Palps: trochanter 0-414 (0-276); femur 0-736 (0-391); tibia 0-759 (0-414); hand

Leg IV. : femur 0-798 (0-357) ; tibia 0-646 (0-213) ; tarsus 0-418 (0-137) mm. 



Material.- — Of this species I have examined five males and five females, of which 

 one carried a large bundle of eggs, as well as two young ones, collected by the Danish 

 ' Galathea ' Expedition in Bahia, a single male sifted by Dr. Meinert in the month of 

 August at La Moka, and one collected by M. Simon in St. Vincent ; besides these, 

 a female, collected in Guatemala by Dr. Stoll, and a male from Tobasis Kapa were 

 examined. This species has previously been recorded from Venezuela, Ecuador, 

 Brazil, Paraguay, Argentine, and Haiti.
