again as far as the side margin it is yellow-brown, but intruding 

 at intervals into the lighter colour. 



The eye-tubercle is smooth, brown and yellow, with the eyes 

 yellow. 



The abdomen is unfortunately partially broken but apparently 

 brown. 



The mandibles are long, pale 3^ellow-brown, strongly- bespiculed 

 in rather regular bands. The 2)alpi, remarkably long, are brown 

 on the basal half of the femur, yellow on the distal half, and 

 pale yellow on the remaining joints. The legs are banded 

 alternately with brown and yellow, and are also very long. 



On the under side the coxve, operculum, and mouth-parts are 

 yellow-brown, dark in the two former and lighter in the latter. 

 The space between the eye-tubercle and the front of the carapace 

 is bespiculed. 



The measurements (in millimetres) are as follows : — 



Ceph. li?. 3, lat. 2| in front, 4 behind ; mand. 20; palpus 8^ ; 



1st leg 37|, 2nd 65, 3rd 37-|, 4th 45|. 



This specimen, apparently a male, was collected at Hawei-a, in 



the North Island, N.Z,, by Mr. G. S. Watts, and I have named 



it after him. 



Pantopsalis pococki, sp. n. (PI. I. figs. 3 a-b.) 



The cephalic yxtr^ of the carapace is dark brown, the abdo- 

 minal portion the same in the middle with pale yellow-grey 

 at the sides, into which the darker colour runs in places. The 

 posterior segments are grey, with transverse marginal streaks of 

 blnck-brown. 



The mandibles are dark red-brown, long, profusely covered 

 with rather large spicules, and are moderately thin until the 

 thickening at the distal end. 



The femoral joint of the legs black-brown, the remaining joints 

 red-brown. The palpi are uniformly yellow-brown till quite at 

 their distal end, which is yellowish grey. 



The carapace, including the eye-tuberclCj is almost wholly 

 covered with small spicules. The eyes are large and black. 



The under side, including the coxal and sternal area, is black- 

 brown. 



The measurements (in millimetres) are as follows : — 

 Ceph. Ig. 2|,lat. 3| ; abd. Ig. 2^, lat. 3j ; mand. 23;i ; palpus 41 ; 

 1st leg 30, 2nd 56, 3rd 26, 4th 37. 



This specimen, collected on Mt. Dick, N.Z., by Mr. T. Hall, 

 I have named after Mr. R. I. Pocock, to whom the students of 

 the Opiliones are much indebted for his valuable papers. 



Pantopsalis halli, sp. n. (PI. I. figs. 4,a-d.) 



The sides of the cephalic part are mottled yellow and dark 

 brown, a broad median area being paler yellow and light brown. 



The eye-tubercle is pale yellow-brown, rather darker in the 

 median longitudinal streak ; eyes quite black.
