SPIDERS FROM cniLI AND PERU. 2L 



the legs bear three indistinct dusky annulations ; the patellae are 

 dusky along their sides, while the tibiae have two deep brown 

 annulations on the upperside, obsolete below. The protarsi also 

 exhibit two dark annulations. The abdomen, which, has some- 

 what lost its colour, is dull white mottled with dark grey. 



Striccture. Carapace long, narrow ; caput raised, convex, with 

 three rows o£ stiff hairs along the three brown bands. Posterior 

 row of eyes slightly procurved, eyes equal, centrals rather closer, 

 one and an eighth diameter apart. Anterior row straight, centrals 

 slightly smaller than the laterals, three fourths a diameter 

 apart, the same distance from the laterals. Clypeus equal to a 

 diameter of the anterior centrals. Mandibles stout, triangular, 

 conical, gibbous above (as in Coelotes). The margins of the fang- 

 groove bear, each, 5 teeth, and the upper margin bears also a 

 fringe of long incurving hairs. Legs spinose, femora with five 

 or six spines above, tibiae with three pairs beneath and one on each 

 side, toward the apex, and often one towards the base. Protarsi 

 with three or four pairs of stout, long spines beneath. Anterior 

 tarsi with a double series of stiif bristles beneath ; posterior with 

 some spines towards the apex, amongst the bristles. Tarsal 

 claws three. 



I refer this spider to the genus Buhrius, E. Simon, although 

 the character assigned to it, with several other genera, " che- 

 larum margo inferior dentibus, 3 or 4 armatus," does not strictly 

 apply. The species is undoubtedly closely allied to E. suh- 

 fasciatus, Sim., Mission Sci. du Cap Horn, p. 14 (1887), but still 

 distinct from it. The central anterior eyes are not very much 

 smaller than the laterals, certainly not " plus duplo " as M. Simon 

 says of suhfasciatiis. 



A single adult female was taken by Dc. Plate at Corral.
