proximally by three to five weaker, non-sclerotic, retro- 
conical teeth becoming progressively smaller in size ; dis- 
tal plate of serrnla interior spinelike and directed anteri- 
orly. Movable finger gently curved; apical tooth acute, 
darkly pigmented, and sclerotic; subapical lobe subdi- 
vided distally into two acute teeth ; galeal seta inserted at 
the level of the subapical lobe and not reaching to the tip 
of the galea ; serrula exterior partly broken but probably 
composed of about 25 ligulate plates; galea stout, fairly 
straight, with six slender and gently curved simple rami 
confined to the distal one-third; length of movable clieli- 
ceral finger about 0.31 mm. 
Palps (Fig. 7) slender; yellowish brown except chela 
reddish brown; surface of podomeres except the chelal 
fingers marked by netlike lines and granulations ; setae 
fairly numerous, short, acute, slightly curved, and incon- 
spicuous. Maxilla 0.78 mm. long, about 0.5 mm. wide; 
trochanter 0.65 mm. long, 0.38 mm. wide ; femur 1.65 mm. 
long, 0.318 mm. wide ; tibia 1.38 mm. long, 0.35 mm. wide ; 
chela without pedicle 2.65 mm. long, 0.65 mm. wide ; depth 
of chela 0.59 mm., length of hand without pedicle 1.1 mm. ; 
length of movable finger 1.65 mm. Shape of chela from 
the side and the arrangement of tactile setae as shown in 
figure 8. Marginal teeth of chelal fingers cuspid, ar- 
ranged along the entire finger margin ; about 85 teeth on 
the fixed finger, about 70 teeth on the movable finger; 
teeth near each end of the row on each finger more or less 
conical, those of the center of the row on the fixed finger 
retroconical, those of the center of the row of the movable 
finger retroconical to much flattened so that they are much 
less acute than the opposing teeth of the fixed finger. 
Legs very slender ; deep yellow in color ; surface marked 
by netlike lines ; setae like those of the palpi, except longer 
and more numerous on the flexor surfaces of the tibial 
and tarsal podomeres. First leg with stout trochanter, 
0.33 mm. long, 0.235 mm. deep ; pars basalis slender, flexor 
margin nearly straight, extensor margin convex in the 
center, podomere deepest near the distal end, length mea- 
sured along the extensor margin 0.62 mm., depth 0.185 
mm. ; pars tibialis subcylindrical, length measured along
