40 MR. H. R. HOGG ON 



gre}". The mandibles are brown at the base and pale yellow 

 brown anteriorly. Fangs pale yellow-grey at the point, browner 

 at their base. 



The lip and maxillae have a margin, equal to half their respective 

 breadths, of j)ale yellow-grey, the remainder black-brown. The 

 sternum is black-bi'own with yellow-grey hairs. The legs and 

 palpi are bright yellow, with darker bands, yellowish-grey spines 

 and hair and brown bristles. 



The abdomen, both on the upper and under sides, is dark brown 

 irregularly mottled with paler yellow spots not forming any 

 special pattern, and grey hair. 



The cephalothorax is longer than broad, only slightly convex, 

 straight in front-, a,nd is rounded at the sides and rear ; it has a 

 short longitudinal fovea behind the cephalic part leading into 

 a broader transverse depression. The cephalic part is bounded by 

 long shallow depressions, and is rather thickly covered with bristly 

 downlying hair all pointing forward ; the thoracic part is sparsely 

 covered Avith shorter hair, with the exception of a marginal stripe 

 Avhicli is again more closely covered. 



The rear row of eyes is straight or, seen from in front, slightly 

 procurved. Both the median four and each side pair of eyes are 

 on one raised prominence overhanging the clypeus in front; the 

 median axe equal in size, a diameter apart behind and two 

 diameters in front; the laterals are adjacent, the rear rather lai'gei-. 



The clypeus is nari'ow. 



The mandihles are short and fiat, with short curved fangs. 



The Up is broader than long, curved at the sides, pointed at 

 the apex, and less than half the length of the maxillse. The latter 

 are broadest at the top, curving rather away from where, on the 

 inner side, they meet the lip, and have pale margins half their 

 own width. 



The stei-num is shield-shaped, convex, hollowed from the two 

 front corners, broadest in the middle, pointed at the rear where 

 the rear coxae are contiguous. The hairs are long, rough, and 

 rather upstanding. 



The legs are thickly covered with downlying hair, upstanding 

 bristles, and numerous short thick spines. The tibiae of the first 

 pair are dilated at the anterior end, being there twice the 

 thickness of the metatarsi, and are furnished with short spines. 

 The tibiae have a single row of short spines on the outer side, 

 besides numerous spines on the inner and under side. The palpi 

 are short and slight, with a remarkably large development of bulb 

 stylus and other organs, covering the whole front of the man- 

 dibles and standing out at each side ; a long elbowed stylus has 

 a projection at the bend. The tibial joint is short and globular, 

 with two long bristles protruding therefrom. 



The ahdomen is roughly quadrangular, longer than broad, 

 narrowed but rounded at the front and rear ends, with angles at 

 the broadest part not quite one-half of the distance from the 

 base to the I'ear; at these angles ai'e slight rounded prominences
