about tlie diameter of the anterior eye, a sclerotic keel 
or ridge just anterior to the posterior eye ; anterior eye 
of each side more or less circular in outline, posterior eye 
a little elliptical; four setae along the posterior margin of 
the carapace ; carapace 0.9 (0.95) mm. long, 0.1 mm. wide ; 
ocular breadth about 0.55 mm. Ter git es except the first 
divided; tergites 1 and 2 with four setae, greatest number 
of setae on any tergite is eight; all setae subclavate; ter- 
gites 4 through 10 with a pigmented spot on each half- 
tergite. St emit es 4 and 5 nearly entire, sternites 6 
through 10 divided; sternites 5 through 10 with darkly 
pigmented spots much as on the tergites ; most sternites 
with six setae, a few with eight setae; setae of anterior ster- 
nites usually acuminate, those of posterior sternites 
weakly subclavate. Abdomen oval in general shape, 
length about 2.4 mm., breadth about 1.9 mm. 
Chelicera as usual in the genus; flagellum with the two 
short blades little more than one-fonrth as long as the 
longest blade ; the longest flagellar blade with one to three 
slender denticles near the center of the anterior margin ; 
length of the chelicera about 0.23 mm., width of base 0.15 
to 0.16 mm.; movable finger 0.165 (0.185) mm. long. 
Fixed cheliceral finger with three retroconical teeth on 
the distal half of the inner margin; inner margin of the 
apical tooth nearly edentate; apical tooth stout, termi- 
nally blunt; lamina exterior narrow. Movable cheliceral 
finger little curved, outer margin nearly straight; sub- 
apical lobe blunt, not well developed, approximate to the 
apical tooth in position ; serrnla exterior of 19 to 21 ligu- 
late plates (condition and position of specimens preclude 
exact count) ; galea broken in all specimens, but evidently 
stout. 
Palps (Fig. 13) with setae of maxilla acuminate to sub- 
clavate ; setae of chelal fingers acuminate ; all other palpal 
setae clavate and relatively long ; podomeres with the usual 
pseudoderm and sculpturing. Maxilla 0.47 (0.49) mm. 
long, 0.30 mm. wide ; trochanter 0.42 mm. long, width at 
right angles to greatest length 0.34 (0.33) mm., width 
across the distal end 0.27 mm. ; femur 0.98 mm. in length, 
0.245 (0.25) mm. in width; tibia with length 0.73 (0.74)
