B. With three pairs of sternal sigilla. 
(a 11 ) Metatarsus I only very slightly bowed, not bent nor incrassated in any j 
part of its length, carrying on the outer side inferiorly a row of five or six spines 
including those at the apex. Tibia I only a little stouter than the metatarsus, j 
its distal tubercle bearing a long pointed black process. The spines margining 
the excavation of the tibia of the palp not forming a continuous band, the 
strip being interrupted in the middle. Coxa III with a band of scattered 
stifhsh setae along its post-ventral border, those more basally situated being 
shorter and more or less subspiniform. (Magaliesberg, near Pretoria.) [It is 
related to the species under 3 A but the process on the distal tubercle of tibia I 
is more slender.] A . monticola Hewitt. 
(fr n ) The process on the distal tubercle of tibia I is strongly flattened and 
obtuse at the apex. Coxa III without subspiniform setae in the band of setae 
on its post- ventral border. (Pigg’s Peak.) A. monticoloides sp. nov. 
3. Tibia I shorter than metatarsus I (only very slightly so in crudeni). 
A. Three pairs of sternal sigilla. Distal tubercle of tibia I bearing an elongated 
flattened black process, rounded or blunt at the end. 
(a in ) Metatarsus I slightly bowed when viewed from the side but not bent 
nor incrassated in any part of its length. Frontal eyes about one-third of a 
diameter apart or a trifle less, the frontal quadrangle of the ocular area 
broader behind than in front, the posterior medians being much nearer to the 
laterals than to each other. (Alicedale.) A. abrahami Hewitt. 
(b ni ) Metatarsus I arcuate in its basal half, with concavity looking inwards, 
strongly bent in the middle. Frontal eyes quite separate, about one-half a 
diameter or more apart, the frontal quadrangle being appreciably wider 
behind. (Jansenville.) A. ochreolum Pocock. 
(c Hi ) Metatarsus I with a distinct bend at a point about one-third of its 
length distant from the apex. Coxa III with a patch of sharp rather weak 
spinules in its basal half posteriorly below. (Roodeplaat, near Pretoria.) 
A. schreineri minor subsp, nov. 
(d m ) Metatarsus I almost straight or very slightly curved, without con- 
cavity or thickening near the base on the inner surface. Excavation of tibia 
of palp armed with a semicircular band of stout spines. Frontal eyes very 
close together, the area formed by the frontal and anterior medians being 
parallel sided or wider behind, the posterior medians almost or quite as far 
from the laterals as from each other. (Zululand.) A. pectinipalpis Purcell 1 . 
(e m ) Metatarsus I almost straight. Excavation of tibia of palp not armed 
with a continuous strip of spines, but with a distal group of 5-8 and a proximal 
group of 8-10. Frontal eyes about one-fifth of a diameter apart: posterior 
medians about if diameters apart and about a diameter distant from the 
laterals. (Magude, P.E.A.) A . moss ambicus sp. nov. 
1 The Transvaal Museum has an example from Malelane which is perhaps referable 
to this species. Metatarsus I has a slight but distinct bend about the middle of its 
length, and on the outer side is a row of three or four spines. The excavation on the 
palpal tibia has a distal group of 8-10 spines and a basal group of ten or eleven. 
Posterior median eyes quite ii diameters distant from the laterals, and about if 
diameters apart : frontals about one-quarter of a diameter apart. Length of carapace 
6*7 5. [Coll. 24. vi. 1916 by Mr A. Roberts.]
