follows thoracic declivity to posterior edge of carapace. Black mark- 
ings framing median stripe at posterior declivity. Dark areas of 
carapace brown to dark brown and black. Light stripes pale yellow 
to yellow-orange (Figs. 1-5). 
Anterior median eyes (AME) slightly larger than anterior lateral 
eyes (ALE). Anterior eye row much narrower than posterior median 
eye row (PME), with dorsal tangent slightly procurved. Posterior 
lateral eye row (PLE) much the widest (see Tables 1-6). 
Chelicerae dark reddish brown to black; anterior and posterior 
margin each with three teeth, the anterior triad crowded more 
closely together. 
Legs when compared to body dimensions relatively longer than in 
Trochosa; without distinct annulations; yellow, yellow-orange to 
golden brown in color. Order of leg length IV-I-II-III. Tibial spina- 
tion in female: leg I, 2-2-2 ventral, 1-0 or 1-1 prolateral; leg II 2-2-2 
ventral, 1-1 prolateral; leg III 2-2-2 ventral, 1-1 prolateral, 1-1 retro- 
lateral, 1-1 dorsal; leg IV 2-2-2 ventral, 1-1 prolateral, 1-1 retrolat- 
eral, 1-1 dorsal. Tibial spination in the male is the same with the 
addition on leg I of 1-1 retrolateral and leg II 1-1 retrolateral. 
Dorsal abdominal pattern variable according to size and hirsute- 
ness, but generally with anterio-lateral black markings aligned with 
those on carapace, cardiac area well marked, and often with pattern 
of chevrons as indicated in Figures 1-5. Dark colors on dorsum of 
abdomen brown to black, lighter colors cream to tan or beige. Ven- 
ter of abdomen cream to light brown in gulosa, huberti, and euepi- 
gynata; dark brown to black in pulchra and bellamyi. Region 
anterior to epigastric furrow of contrasting darker or lighter color 
respectively. 
Male palpus with stridulatory file situated retrolaterally at tip of 
tibia. Cymbium with cluster of macrosetae at tip, and with stridula- 
tory scraper retrolaterally at base. Male palpal sclerites as seen in 
ventral view: Palea (pa) concave, largely hidden by embolus, visible 
along retrolateral margin. Embolus (em) blade-like, tapering to a 
point, with clockwise orientation (from left to right) in left palpus, 
which is opposite to that of most Lycosinae. Conductor (co) con- 
cave, with cuplike portion containing tips of the terminal apophysis 
(ta) and the embolus. Terminal apophysis large, flattened and paral- 
leling embolus, with its tip serving partly as a conductor. Median 
apophysis (ma) with a flattened ridge extending retrolaterally and
