lateral margins at tho caput, of a yellowish colour, slightly tinged 

 with brown and with some lateral converging lines of a deeper 

 hue. The hinder slope is rather abrupt, deeply and broadly 

 indented, and tho profile line of the upper part of the thorax and 

 caput is level, with a very slight impression behind the occiput. 

 The ocular area is a little prominent, and, as well as tho upper 

 part of the caput, which is rather rounded, is thinly furnished 

 with bristly hairs diroctod forwards. Tho height of the clypeus 

 exceeds half that of the facial space. 



The eyes are on black spots ; those of the posterior row are 

 removed from each othor by rather less than an eye's diameter ; 

 those of each lateral pair aro placed obliquely. Those of the 

 fore-oentral pair aro smallest of the eight, and contiguous to each 

 other. Tho fore-central eyes form a square, whose anterior 

 side, however, is much shorter than the rost. 



The legs are long, slender, 1.2.4.3., similar in colour to the 

 cephalo-thorax, f urnishod with hairs and armed with long, rather 

 slender, but distinct, black spines, throe on each of the tibioo 

 of tho socond, third, and fourth pairs, one on the genua, and one 

 on the inner side of the fore extremity of tho femora of the first 

 pair only, the tibioo of this pair having four, and there is a single 

 spine also on each of the metatarsi. 



The palpi are rathor short, and similar to the legs in colour. 

 Tho radial and cubital joints are of oqual length ; the former is 

 much the stronger, and is a little produced at its fore extremity 

 on the upper side ; it is f urnishod with black bristles and hairs, 

 four of the strongest of tho former are curved and tapering, and 

 form noarly a straight line from the base to the extremity of tho 

 joint, tho line being also continuod backwards by another similar 

 bristle at the middle of the fore extremity of the cubital joint. 

 These bristles are all of about the same length and strength. 



The digital joints aro of good size, and have their convex sides 

 directed inwards towards each othor. Each has a large lobe 

 on the outor side, and two small sub-conical prominences at its 

 posterior oxtromity. Tho palpal organs are prominent and com- 

 plex, with a strong subangularly curvod process at thoir base on
