anterior margin of the carapace. Metatarsus distinctly curved, its 
length a little less than or a little exceeding the distance from the 
fovea to the anterior margin of the carapace. 
Process of pedipalpal bulb arcuate, stoutish, the distal portion 
strongly laterally compressed and flattened, curved outwards, the 
apex suddenly pointed like the nib of a pen with a:very short point. 
Apical segment of posterior spinners very much longer than the 
penultimate segment, and about 14 times as long as the ocular 
tubercle. 
Measwrements.—Length of carapace 194-214, width 164-17}; 
length of foveal horn in largest $ 7, width at base 4:2, height of apex 
above thorax 2°8 ; distance of fovea from anterior margin of carapace 
12; length of tibia of first leg 123, of metatarsus 114. 
In the large size of the foveal horn this species most nearly 
resembles C. darlingt, Poc., of which only the female has been 
described. In the latter species, however, the horn is more conical 
and more erect and straight (see Pocock, P.Z.S., 1897, pl. 43, 
f. 1 & la), whereas in bechwanicus it is not conical, much more 
inclined and strongly curved backwards. 
The following species are not in the Collection :— 
Ceratogyrus darlungt, Poc., P.Z.8., 1897, p. 754, pl. 42, f. 5; pl. 43, 
f. 1, la, ? from Enkeldoorn, 8. of Salisbury, in Mashonaland. 
Ceratogyrus marshalli, Poc., ibid., p. 754, pl. 48, f. 2-2b, g from 
the same locality. 
Gren. HARPACTIRELLA, nov. 
Carapace about 4-2? times longer than wide, the cephalic portion 
moderately convex in the ? but lower in the g, the fovea moderately 
deep, transverse or nearly so, its position as in Harpactira. Ocular 
tubercle and eyes asin Harpactira. Legs much as in Harpactira, the 
fourth pair not shorter than the first. Tibia of pedipalps with apical 
spines. Tibize and metatarsi of legs also spined, at least at the 
apex in the third and fourth pairs, but the metatarsi of first and 
second pairs not spined at the apex. Patella and tibia of fourth 
pair together subequal to or slightly exceeding the same segments 
of the first leg. Scopula of first and second metatarsus thick, 
reaching as in Harpactira almost or quite to the base, that of 
third and fourth metatarsus leaving the basal fourth or third of 
the segment free, that of fourth metatarsus divided by a band of 
sete, the other scopule entire. Sides of chelicerze without feathery 
scopule, the outer surface furnished posteriorly with an obliquely 
transverse patch of very fine, rather sparsely distributed hairs, which
