The legs are short and stont the femora especially thick. 
In the front legs the tibia is cup-shaped, its tip nearly 
as broad as its length, this tip is concave and the basal 
part of tarsus is retracted within it, the tip of tibia above 
has a long hair. The short tarsus is suddenly narrowed 
from above and here there are a few hairs. In the hind 
legs the femora are broad, shouldered, subtriangular, the 
hind tarsus about equal to tibia, its tip scarcely reaching 
tip of abdomen. The front legs are hardly as long as 
width of abdomen. 
The genital aperture almost touches the anal, is broader 
in front than the anal, but behind is a little more narrow 
than anal, latter is fully as long as genital, but quite nar- 
row in front and fully twice as broad behind. 
Length .55 to .6 mm. 
From Duke Forest, N. Carolina, numbers 475, 238. 
The front tibia is more modified than in apicalis or sac- 
chariomycetoides. Type M.C.Z. Arachn. 3018.

Figs. 10, 23 
Related to E. flagellaris, smaller, abdomen more elon- 
gate. Cephalothorax with two fine linear carinae in mid- 
dle, at first parallel, then each turns outward, stigma 
close to base, hardly its diameter from outer margin ; seta 
long, slender, ending in a fine whip-lash. Above the base 
of leg one is a shorter carina, reaching forward of lateral 
margin. 
Abdomen nearly one and one-third as long as broad; 
the anterior lateral margin appears heavier (as in Ber- 
lese’s figure) with hairs about as in figure but not all dis- 
tinct in this specimen; four on hind margin, and a sub- 
marginal row, and an apparent oblique row. 
On the venter the triple U-suture across base of the 
camerostome and ending at tectopedial spines is very dis- 
tinct. The genital aperture is a little longer than broad, 
hardly one-third its length in front of the larger anal 
aperture, which is broader behind, and separated from 
hind margin almost as far as from genital aperture. 
The legs are finely granular and more slender than in
