lateral eye on its side. Those of the anterior row are all con" 

 tiguous to each other. 



The legs are moderatoly long, but not greatly different in their 

 longth ; (4.1.2.3.) rather slender, and of a yellowish-brown hue ; 

 the femora, particularly those of the first pair, strongly tinged 

 with blackish-brown. They are furnished with hairs, and near 

 the middle of the under side of the tibia) of each of those of 

 tho third pair is a longish, strong, slightly curved, prominent, 

 dark, spur-liko spine directed backwards ; there are also two 

 short black spines in a longitudinal Hue beneath the metatarsi 

 of the first pair. 



The palpi are short, the cubital joint is thickly furnished in 

 front with short, strong, bristly hairs ; the radial joint is about 

 the same length, but rather less strong, and has its extremity on 

 the outer side produced into a short obtuse apophysis. The 

 digital joint is rather large and tapers to a point ; the palpal 

 organs are well developed but simple, and have a longitudinal, 

 curved spine, closely connected with them, and, apparently 

 issuing from their base on the outer side, owing, however, to the 

 cramped position of these parts it was difficult to observe them 

 very closely, without injury to tho specimen. The colour of tho 

 palpi is dull yellow-brown, the humeral joints tinged with black- 

 brown, and the digital joints dark-brown. 



The falces are moderately long, not very strong, and slightly 

 divergent at their extremities ; their colour is similar to that of 

 the cephalo-thorax. 



The maxillso and labium are yellow-brown, slightly tinged 

 with reddish-brown, and the sternum is similar to the cophalo- 

 thorax in colour. 



The abdomen is of a narrow- oval form, rather longer than 

 the cephalo-thorax ; it is of a deep brown colour, thickly mottled 

 with minuto, dull, roddish-yellow spots, and some short, 

 similarly-coloured linos, which chiefly form tho ordinary trans- 

 vorse angular bars on tho hinder half of the upper side. Close 

 in front of the ordinary spinners, which are of a dull, pale, 

 brownish-yellow hue, is the characteristic, transverse, super-
