Locality. Kanagawa, July, 1905, 1 specimen o^. 



The description of the species was given from a specimen 

 found in Paris, living in a box that had arrived direct from 

 Japan. The finding of this species in Japan is very interesting, 

 thus confirming the supposition expressed by E. Simon, that the 

 animal belonged to the Japanese fauna. Both of the two spe- 

 cimens known are males. There is no reason for supporting the 

 new genus, established by Simon for this species. 



Ghelifer Sauteri nov. sp. 



Two large, distinct eyes, one on each side. 



Céphalothorax, sclerites and palps brown, legs and interstitial 

 parts greyish white. 



Céphalothorax longer than it is broad behind, granulated and 

 somewhat glossy ; the posterior half nearly parallel-sided, anteri- 

 orly rounded, the front margin slightly convex. Two transversal 

 grooves, the anterior one very distinct, nearly straight and about 

 in the middle ; the central part of the posterior groove curves 

 slightly backwards, but is not very clearly defined, and is near 

 the hinder margin. The surface is provided with some very 

 short, obtuse hairs. 



Abdomen. The tergites distinctly granulated, somewhat 

 opaque, all divided longitudinally except the last one, which how- 

 ever, is partly divided; along the hinder margins are rows of 

 short, slightly pointed hairs. The sternites slightly granulated, some- 

 what glossy, all divided longitudinally; the hairs longer and more 

 acute than on the tergites ; on the last somite some longer, pointed 

 hairs intermixed. The sexual organs of the male exhibit a 

 remarkable feature, having on each side of the sexual aperture 

 two elongate, oviform shields. 



Palps about as long as the body, slender. Coxa minutely 

 granulated and rather glossy. The other parts are more or less
