deep; pars tibialis with evenly convex extensor margin, 
flexor margin bulging near the center ; length 0.285 mm., 
depth 0.19 mm. ; tibia as in other species of the genus, 
length 0.335 mm., depth 0.125 mm. ; metatarsus subcylin- 
drical, length 0.158 mm., depth 0.095 mm. ; telotarsus with 
both margins a little convex, length 0.145 mm., depth 
0.075 mm. Fourth leg with extensor margin of the tro- 
chanter evenly convex, length 0.365 mm., depth 0.17 mm. ; 
pars basalis subtriangular in shape, 0.265 mm. long, 0.19 
mm. deep ; pars tibialis with extensor margin more or less 
evenly but not strongly convex, flexor margin nearly 
straight and continuous with the flexor margin of the pars 
basalis, greatest length 0.61 mm., depth 0.245 mm. ; entire 
femur 0.80 mm. long; tibia very weakly S-shaped, length 
0.49 mm., greatest depth in the distal half and equal to 
0.14 mm. ; metatarsus subcvlindrical, 0.195 mm. long, 0.102 
mm. deep; telotarsus stout, length 0.19 mm., depth 0.10 
mm. 
Genital complex with the anterior operculum asetace- 
ous except for six small acuminate setae just anterior to 
the genital pore ; posterior operculum with seven or eight 
small setae approximate to the genital pore and five longer 
setae along the posterior margin. Both opercula with 
numerous slitlike lyrifissures. 
Type locality. The single male, the liolotype, collected 
by Dr. P. J. Darlington on November 30, 1931, at Ade- 
laide, South Australia. 
Remarks. The present species differs from all pre- 
viously described species of the subgenus Maorigarypus 
by having two rather than one or three tactile setae on 
the movable clielal finger and differs from all described 
species of the genus Synsphyronus by having only seven 
tactile setae on the fixed clielal finger. Synsphyronus 
niger is similar in these characters to S. magnus described 
below. Methods of separating these two species will be 
given under the description of the latter.
