5 Araneae. 207 
Sternal sagilla small, submarginal, the posterior pair scarcely a diameter from the edge. 
Chelicera with 2 well-developed rows of teeth below, the inner row composed of I small and 
4 large teeth, the outer row of I small and 3 large teeth and shorter than the inner row. 
Lab i um with only 2 apical teeth. 
Coxae of pedipalps with the teeth extending to about the middle of the lower surface in places 
at least, the other coxae muticous. 
Total length [including chelicera 1 )] i3 3 / 4 mm; length of cephalothorax 4 mm; length of ocular area 
I mm; length of tibia of first leg i 3 / 4 mm. 
2. Idiops palUdipes n. sp. 
1 9 from Southern Hereroland, September or October 1903. 
Colour pale-yellow, the abdomen quite pallid, the legs concolourous, the cephalothorax infuscated 
in the median fovea and between the eyes. 
Cephalothorax (measured along a posterior lateral eye) as long as the patella, tibia, and 4 /s of 
the metatarsus of first leg and as the tibia, metatarsus and y 4 of the tarsus of fourth leg. Ocular area 
short, much broader than long, its width a little less than the length of the metatarsus of first leg. Area 
formed by the frontal eyes and the anterior median eyes of the posterior group parallel-sided, its length 
exceeding its width by only half a diameter of one of its posterior eyes; the frontal eyes oval, rather large, 
about y 5 of a long diameter apart, the tubercle deeply grooved above. Posterior lateral eyes rather short, 
not reniform, lines touching their anterior and posterior margins passing respectively just behind the centres 
of the anterior median eyes and just in front of the hind edges of the posterior median eyes; their distance 
from the anterior margin of the cephalothorax distinctly less than their distance from the anterior median 
eye of the other side, their distance from this latter eye being also slightly less than their distance from the 
corresponding posterior median eye ; the four median eyes forming an area which is distinctly broader behind 
than in front and very much (nearly twice) broader than long, the anterior medians about an eye's diameter 
apart, the posterior medians rotund, only slightly smaller than the anterior medians and very far apart, 
their distance apart being about 3 times their distance from the lateral eyes. 
Legs. Tibia of first leg as long as the metatarsus and 2 /s of the tarsus. Spines on the legs as 
in I. striatipes n. sp. ; the patella of the third leg with 2 — 3 distal spines posteriorly above. 
Posterior sternal sagilla a little more than a diameter from the edge. 
Chelicera and coxae of pedipalps much as in I. striatipes n. sp., but the inner row in one 
jaw with all 5 teeth large. 
Labium with 5 apical teeth. 
Total length (including chelicera) 12 mm; length of cephalothorax 3% mm.
