Tibia of first leg normal, 3$ times as long as high in the middle, its 
length scarcely less than that of the metatarsus and equal to the 
distance from the fovea to a point on the ocular tubercle, midway 
between the posterior margin and the middle of the latter. Metatarsus 
straight, not hollowed out at base on the inner side. 
Process of pedipalpal bulb arcuate, stoutish, striated externally, 
strongly flattened distally and slightly twisted, bent outwards rather 
suddenly near the apex, the apex itself rounded, with keel-like 
dilatation. 
Chelicere with the lower non-scopulate portion of the outer surface 
only slightly narrower than the scopula and provided behind with 
an oblique patch of very fine, rather sparsely distributed hairs, which 
are directed forwards and downwards.* 
Apical segment of posterior spinners subconical, equalling the 
penultimate segment in length and considerably shorter than the 
ocular tubercle. 
Measurements.—Total length 32; length of carapace 13, width 
104; length of tibia and of metatarsus of first leg 74; distance from 
fovea to posterior margin of ocular tubercle 7, to anterior margin of 
carapace 9. 
(6b) One g and 1 ? from Vryburg in Bechuanaland, Cape Colony 
(Mrs. A. W. Fincham). 
3 with the hairs on the carapace more of a dark bronzy olivaceous. 
colour, the distal segments of the legs scarcely paler than the proxi- 
mal segments, the under surface of trunk with dark chocolate-brown 
hairs. Carapace as long as the fourth metatarsus together with +4 of 
the tarsus, and only a little shorter than the tibia and metatarsus of 
tirst leg. Tibia of first leg about 34-34 times as long as high, its 
length slightly less than that of the metatarsus and subequal to the 
distance from the fovea to the posterior margin of the ocular tubercle, 
the length of the metatarsus just exceeding this distance. 
2. Carapace with numerous radiating stripes of pale cream- 
coloured hairs, the interspaces clothed with dark greenish-brown 
hairs; the 3 distal leg segments clothed with greyish hairs, the femur 
and patella with more olive-brown hairs and with 2 longitudinal 
grey stripes above; abdomen dark, densely speckled with cream- 
coloured confluent spots, the usual dark dorsal pattern distinct. 
Carapace slightly shorter than the metatarsus and tarsus of fourth 
leg, and as long as the tibia, metatarsus and 4 the tarsus of first 
leg. Tibia of first leg 2? times as long as high, its length equal 
to that of the metatarsus, together with about 1 of the tarsus, and
