The eyes of the front row are in a straight line, the laterals half 

 their diameter from the median, which are 1 1 that distance apart, 

 their diameter being rather more than twice the same. The 

 clypeus is less than their diameter by one-third. They are half their 

 diameter from the eyes of the second row, whose diameter is twice 

 that of the front median, and this is 1| times their distance apart. 



The mandibles are long and stout. Tliere are three lai'ge teeth 

 on inner margin of falx-sheath, one large between two small on 

 the outer. 



The lip is as broad as long, straight in fr-ont, and less than half 

 as long as the maxillae. 



The abdomen is a broad oval. In the female the epigyne is 

 of a trapezoidal outline, broadest anteriorly, where it is broader 

 than its length. The base of the median ridge reaches j of 

 the whole length, and is narrowest in the middle, the ridge being 

 broader anteriorly than the base.

 tibiae i. and ii. ; two each on tibiae iii. and iv. The palpi (from
