We have one female from Chihuahua, Mexico. 
Pellenes cognatiis, n. 
PI. I, fig. 19. 
$. Length, G mm. Legs, 3412, first a Httle the stoutest. 
The quadrangle of the eyes is wider behind than in front, and 
is one-third wider than long. The front eyes are all separated, 
and form a straight row, the m.iddle being plainly twice as large 
as the lateral. The second row is halfway between the other 
two. The third row is not so wide as the cephalothorax. The 
labium is wider than long, and half as long as the maxillae. 
The clypeus is one-half as wide as the middle eyes. The ceph- 
alothorax and abdomen are covered with a close mixture of 
fawn-color, white and black, the white predominating to form 
three longitudinal bands on the cephalic part, one down the mid- 
dle, and one on each side, an encircling band on the abdomen, 
and a band of three white chevrons, or arrow-heads, in the 
middle of the dorsum, this band reaching neither extremity. On 
the margin of the cephalothorax. is a narrow line of black. The 
eyes are surrounded by yellowish-white hairs, which also cover 
the clypeus. Under each of the middle eyes, at the outer edge, 
there is a spot faintly tinged with chestnut, which passes down- 
ward to the black marginal line. The legs and palpi are light 
brown, thickly covered with white hairs. The falces are brown. 
This species is much like placidus, from Mexico, but the shield 
to the opening of the epigynum is not widened in front. The 
whitish bands on the cephalic part, and around the abdomen, 
and the spots on the clypeus, also serve to distinguish it. 
We have two females, one from Kansas, and one from New 
Mexico, sent to us by Prof. T. D. A. Cockerell. 
Pellenes dolosus, n. 
PI. I, fig. 20. 
9. Length, 7.5 mm. Third leg, 5.5 mm. Legs, 3412. First 
leg longer than second by tarsus and metatarsus. Third leg 
longer than fourth by tarsus and metatarsus. 
Quadrangle of eyes a little wider behind. First row straight, 
with all the eyes subtouching; middle fully twice as large as 
the lateral and projecting. Eyes of the third row as large as 
the lateral eyes of the first row, placed a little further from 
each other than from the lateral borders. Clypeus one-half as 
high as middle eyes of first row. Maxillae as wide as long, trun- 
cated in front, rounded on inner sides. Labium fully as wide 
as long, less than one-half as long as maxillae. Anterior coxae 
separated by about the width of the labium. Sternum oval.
