about through their centre.) The rear side-eyes, oval, have their 

 long diameter equal to that of the front middle. The rear middle 

 eyes are truncate posteriorly, half the diameter of the rear side 

 therefrom, the line joining the centres of the four being slightly 

 recurved. Front and rear laterals clearly separated. The front 

 middle eyes have yellow rims with black centres. 



The mandibles are as long as the front patella, thickly clothed 

 with short down-lying hair merging into longer at the front end 

 and on the inner side of the fals. Fangs rather long. 



The onaxillce are divergent, the base being curved round the lip 

 to a narrowish heel at the outer corner. There is a bunch of 

 numerous club-shaped spines about the middle of the base. The 

 upper inner corner alongside the insertion of the trochanter is 

 moulded into a small rounded protuberance. 



The Z?j:> is unfortunately broken and its form not distinguish- 

 able. 



The abdomen is oval, long and narrow, thickly covered with a 

 mat of rather long bristly hair, but no spines. The superior 

 spinnerets straight and tapering, one half the length of femur and 

 trochanter iv. 



The ijaljn are comparatively short. The femoral joint incurved, 

 the patellar and tibial joints covered with long bushy hair ; meta- 

 tarsal quite short. The bulb is rather large and well rounded, 

 twisting at the top so that the stigma, which in length equals 

 twice the diameter of the bulb, proceeds from the inner side of 

 the basal portion. The apex of the stigma is much dilated (as in 

 S, lanipes Auss. Arachn. Austr. 1875, p. 187 & plate), but the bulb 

 is much more globular. 



The legs are powerful, the front pair being thicker than the 

 rear, and thickly covered with long bushy hair. The scopula on 

 the fourth metatarsi reach slightly beyond half-way up the joint, 

 but merges into bristles. There are no spines or marks of them 

 visible on any of the legs.
