8 NEW PEDIPALPI FROM AUSTRALIA AND SOLOMON ISLANDS 
that species in the above key and, further, the type-specimens, 
which should be in the collection of the Stanford University, 
California, seem to have been lost. Certainly Professor G. F. 
Ferris, to whom I am nevertheless indebted, can find no trace of 
them. 
In the placement of C. neocaledonicus Simon, I have been 
guided by the figures given by Simon in support of his genus. 
Obviously these are not referable to the designated genotype 
C. australianus (L. Koch), which suggests that the genus was, 
in fact, described from a specimen of neocaledonicus. Other 
evidence tends to support this supposition. In erecting the genus, 
Simon (1892, p. 48) remarked that it ‘‘comprenant une seconde 
espèce de Nouvelle-Calédonie, encore inedite,” and the definition 
of the genus, particularly where referring to the position of the 
lateral eyes, when compared with Kraepelin’s descriptions of both 
species (1899, pp. 249-250), agrees better with neocaledonicus 
than with australianus. Unfortunately, I have not been able to 
obtain a specimen of Simon’s species for examination; in view 
of the foregoing, it would be advisable for that species to be 
described in more detail. 
Acknowledgments are also made to Dr. S. L. Hora, of the 
Zoological Survey of India, for details of the armature of the 
hand and finger of the two specimens of C. seychellarum Ктріп. 
under his care.
