AETHKOPOD FAUNA OF THE WEST INDIES. 401 



in BroteocTiactas nitidus is the manus marked with many ocelli- 

 form punctures arranged in three rows. 



I also refer to this genus Ohactas delicatus, Karsch, of which 

 the British Museum has a large number of specimens from 

 Demerara (British Gruiana), a few ticketed S. America, and one 

 from Colombia. The variety named opacus by Karsch is nothing 

 but the male of delicatus. 



Grenus Hadeijetjs, Thorell, Etudes Scorpiol. p. 9. 



Carapace very closely resembling that of BracJiistosternus, 

 the lateral eyes a little larger and a little farther from the edge. 



The digits of the dielicerce shorter than in SracJiistosfernus, 

 and the teeth more robust; the terminal fang of the movable 

 digit shorter; a large tusk on the lower border of this digit. 



Digits of the chelae denticulate as in BmcMstosternus, but 

 the denticles of the median series more numerous. 



Tail as in BracJiisfosfermcs. 



Sternum almost as in BracMstosternits, but larger and not 

 entirely tucked in as in this genus. The genital operculum small, 

 not in contact with the second pair of coxae, cleft in both sexes. 



Pectines long, with their intermediate lamellae formed of a 

 single series of rounded sclerites. 



Legs as in Bracldstosternus, but the terminal tarsal segments 

 not carinate above. 



Type, H. hirsutus (Wood).
