the male measuring 10 x 4-25 ; granulation 
of last sternite and of inferior-median keels 
of caudal segment I in the male coarser 
\ than in Jceilaadsi, but hardly so coarse as in

Distribution : The type came from the interior of East Africa (coll. 
Emin Pasha) and the species is known from German East Africa, Nyassa- 
land, and from Broken Hill, Rhodesia. It is not known to the Ehodesian 
Museum from South Rhodesia. 
The principal characters of this species, the only one of the genus likely 
to occur within our limits, are : 
Each end lobe of the tarsi with only 2 short strong spines (sometimes 
also a weak terminal one may occur), and in addition the tarsus has inferiorly 
2 inner and 1 outer spines ; last sternite and lower surfaces of first caudal 
segment quite free of granules ; last sternite without keels ; hand only slightly 
broader than length of hand-back, the inner margin of the upper surface not 
smooth but roughened and subdenticulated in the distal half. Pectinal 
teeth 11-14. Total length 120 mm.
