FROM THE INDIAN REGION. 481 
Basal joint of the antenna smooth. Procursus max. internus 
broad and high, and has an upper process: the lower process 
is missing, and the lower edge is toothed. Femora of the palps 
toothed below; patelle toothed chiefly above, broader towards 
their edges. Tibiw three times as long as broad. ‘Tarsi at 
their lower and inner edges bear the usual row of granules. 
Femora of the legs and partly their patelle and tibiz spinous. 
F. I=6 (80), I[=104 (58), I1I=6 (80), IV=83 (?) mm. 
Body 4mm. Second joint of the antenna 1 mm. in length. 
Cephalothorax yellowish, richly spotted with brown. Abdomen 
brownish with a metallic sheen. Genital plate and coxe brown ; 
the free ventral segments are greyish-brown, indistinctly spotted 
with white and black. Femora and the patelle of the palps 
brownish, the terminal joints and the antenna yellow. Legs 
light brown, with the extremities of tibie 2 and 4 white. In the 
females the tarsi of the palps are smooth, the abdomen lighter and 
non-metallic ; the dorsal segments bear a row of indistinct yellow 
spots. 
Male and female from Berbhoom district. 
ZALEPTUS MINUTUS, 0. sp. 
@. Cephalothorax almost triangular. Abdomen flat, and. 
falls gradually behind. Cephalothorax has the ordinary depressed 
triangle; and there is a longitudinal groove along the margin. 
Body bears few hairs and bas large granules above; the coxe 
and genital plate are almost, and the ventral segments com- 
pletely smooth. Lamina frontalis well developed; the procursus 
are large, spinous, and separated. The tubercle is low and as 
high as long; the front edge higher than the back. Seen 
from the front it is broader than high and narrowed at its base. 
The top is convex and smooth, with the exception of a single 
anterior tooth. Diameter of the eyes equal to the distance 
between their lower edge and the base and less than the 
distance between them. Basal joint of the antenna granular. 
Labrum obtuse and pointed, with two short hairs. Proc. max. 
int. two-branched and low ; the upper branch slender, the lower 
strong and recurved. Both upper and lower edge are sometimes 
toothed. The palps are broken away. Femora of the legs well 
toothed and hairy; tibie of ail the legs bear false articulations. 
Legs brittle and femora beset with few bairs. 
F. I=6, I1=11, I1J=6, IV=9 mm. Body 3mm. Second 
joint of the antenna measures ? mm.
