Cephalothorax before the posterior transverse groove, palps, ter- 

 gi tes and sternites dark brown, sometimes next to blackish brown' 

 the first tergite, however, being very pale, the fingers of the palps 

 somewhat reddish, cephalothorax between the posterior transverse 

 groove and the hinder margin whitish with a dark brown spot in 

 the middle, the legs and the interstitial parts of abdomen greyish 

 white. 



Cephalothorax a little longer than broad, strongly narrowing for- 

 wards, rounded in front, strongly and regularly granulated, opaque; 

 two distinct transverse grooves, the anterior one abont midway, slightly 

 con v ex in the middle, the posterior groove a little nearer to the hinder 

 margin than to the first groove, straight or slightly convex. 



Hairs : on ali specimens almost ali the hairs were lost, as well on 

 the cephalothorax as on the abdomen and the palps; the few hairs 

 left on the upper surface of the abdomen Avere davate, on the ster- 

 nites simple and pointed; on trochanter, femur and tibia of the palps 

 the hairs are, when present, short, distinctly davate, on the hand 

 thick, partly dentateci, on the fingers simple and pointed, some very 

 long ones intermixed. On the legs the hairs are short and thickened. 



Abdomen: tergites strongly granulated, almost opaque, ali except 

 the last one divided longitudinally by a very broad longitudinal line 

 or rather band, the contrast of the colour of the dark sclerites and 

 the whitish and broad interstitial parts being very striking. The under 

 side of the abdomen very gloss3 r , the longitudinal division' as on the 

 upper side. 



Palps hardly as long as the body, coxa and fingers smooth and 

 very glossy the rest distinctly granulated and opaque or somewhat 

 glossy, the hand being most glossy. Trochanter stalked, about as long 

 as broad, the inner side convex, on the outer side a rounded tu- 

 bereie, on the upper side a rounded protuberance. Femur stalked, 

 about 3 times as long as broad, a little shorter than cephalothorax, 

 the inner side in the proximal part very slightly convex, in the distai 

 part very slightly concave, behincl suddenly enlarged at the base, the- 

 outer margin nearly straight or slightly convex, a little rounded to- 

 wards the extremity. Tibia distinctly stalked, very little shorter than 

 and a little broader than femur, the outer side convex, most strongly 

 so towards the extremity, the inner side rather strongly convex near 

 the base. Hand a little longer than and about 1 l / 4 as broad as tibia, 

 troni oblique and somewhat truncated base on the outer side very 

 slightly convex, on the inner side more strongly so, almost gradually 

 running into the fingers. These are rather strongly curved, very little 

 shorter than the hand.
