of the first has a black, longitudinal band, and the tibia and 
metatarsus have each two longitudinal black lines. Nearly all 
the joints of the other legs have longitudinal black lines with 
some additional oblique ones on the femur of the third and of 
the fourth. The clypeus is nearly as wide as the large middle 
eyes, and has two transverse white bands with a narrow black 
line between them. The palpi are yellow with white hairs, and 
have the under side of the distal end of the femur black with a 
bunch of black hairs. The patella has a black ring at the distal 
end. The fakes are vertical and rather weak. 
We have several males from Chapada and Sao Paulo, sent to 
us by Mr. Moenkhaus.

This genus, which belongs to the Homalattus Group, is dis- 
tinguished by its slender shape and elongated first legs. 
The cephalothorax is moderately high and is two-thirds as 
wide as long. It is narrow in front, but bulges out at the dorsal 
eyes. The sides are nearly vertical. The cephalic part is a little 
inclined forward, and the thoracic drops almost immediately 
l)ehind the dorsal eyes. The quadrangle of the eyes occupies 
a little more than half of the cephalothorax, is one-fifth wider 
than long, and a little w^ider in front than behind. The front 
eyes are all close together in a straight line, the middle ones 
being plainly more than twice as large as the lajteral, and bulg- 
ing forward. The second row is nearer the first than the third, 
and the third is nearly as wide as the cephalothorax. The first 
legs are elongated. The falces are horizontal and short. The 
maxillae are rounded, and the labium is small.

This is a graceful species with brown and white coloring. It 
is readily distinguished by the large eyes of the first row, and by 
the shape of the fangs, which are notched on the outer side. 
Length, 4 mm. Legs, 1-1:23, the first much elongated, 
with the coxa and trochanter reaching to within a third of the 
distal end of the femur of the second. 
The cephalothorax is brown with the eye-region covered with 
white hairs, and two small spots of white on the posterior slope 
of the thorax. The abdomen is brown, the posterior fifth being 
much darker than the rest, the two color regions being marked 
ofif sharply. A white band runs along each side, ending abruptly 
where the color darkens, and just above the spinnerets there is
