more produced than is usually the case in Chelifer Geof., in this 
respect providing similarity to Garypus L. K. (ef. Ellingsen 28, 
p. 16). Two very prominent eyes. The coarsely granular cepha- 
lothorax is provided with two transverse grooves and rather short 
somewhat obtuse hairs. 
Abdomen. — The tergal sclerites with the exception of the 
first are longitudinally divided and provided with granulations, which 
are more scaleshaped than those of the cephalothorax; hairs long 
and thick. 
The genital area does not seem to be alike that of any 
of the forms, which have previously been examined in this respect. 
In front of the fourth sternite we find two genital plates of about 
equal length. The posterior plate, which possesses numerous hairs 
has the front margin somewhat concave in the middle and is here 
provided with a long marginal membranaceous seam; under this 
part an elaborate chitinous apparatus is placed, through which 
numerous glandular ducts probably discharge the secretion from the 
accessory glands. The anterior plate, the posterior margin of which 
is provided with a long and basally striated membrane, is on each 
side in the middle more strongly chitinized and is here provided 
with a number of rather long pointed hairs. 
Antennae. The serrula consists of about 25 teeth. The 
rather short galea, which has about seven very short teeth 
arranged from middle to tip, is shorter than the terminal hair and 
does not extend beyond it. The flagellum consists of four hairs, 
of which the first and the third are the longest and marginally 
serrated in distal half, while the second smaller has only a few 
teeth, and the fourth hair is without any teeth. 
Palps (pl. II, figs 5—7). The maxillae are almost smooth. 
The paålps are coarsely granular with the exception of the more 
finely granular hand and the smooth or almost smooth fingers. The | 
fairly long and pointed hairs are provided with a few teeth. The 
immovable finger has anteriorly in addition to the usual four 
tactile hairs two spots”, placed almost in the middle (fig. 6), while
