27. Rhyncholophus regalis, Koch. 66,67,68. 



R. cof/imnnis, Geo. 



The dorsal trichomes end in a single point. (Fig. 

 53. 57)- 



The most abundant species, ascending to 1,800 feet 

 in West Allendale. It runs swiftly in hot sun- 

 shine, on dry banks and over rocks. Generally 

 distributed. 



28. Rhyncholophus penninus, sp. nov. 67. 



Total length, 1,300/x. Differs from the two foregoing 

 species in having no spines on the third joint of the 

 palp, and those on the fourth are mere tubercles, 

 hardly visible. Also the legs are less unequal, 

 due to the comparative shortness of the fifth and 

 sixth articles of legs i and iv (counting the tarsus 

 as the seventh). From trochanter to tarsus of leg 

 iv the lengths of the joints of an average specimen 

 are no, 120, 240,250, 290, 130. The exceedingly 

 minute pectinations of the setae are only visible 

 under a high power. (Fig. 55, 58). 



A few specimens only, West Allendale.
