NEW LYCOSIDiE FROM FLORIDA 
By Elizabeth B. Bryant 
Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University 
Through the kindness of Mr. H. K. Wallace of the Uni- 
versity of Florida, I have had the opportunity to examine a 
collection of spiders made by him. Among them are three 
species that are new. The types are deposited in the Mu- 
seum of Comparative Zoology collection. 
Lycosa carrana sp. nov. (Fig. 1) 
S 10.5 mm. long, ceph. 5.6 mm., abd. 5.5 mm. 
1 leg, 16. mm., IV 21. mm. 
Cephalothorax light yellow, the black about eyes is con- 
tinued from p.l.e. as two parallel stripes of dark hairs to 
posterior margin, median light stripe wider than dark 
stripes, a narrow marginal dark stripe, a narrow line of 
white hairs between p.m.e. which does not extend to mar- 
gin of clypeus ; abdomen with a wide median dark stripe on 
posterior half which is continued as two converging lines 
forward to near the anterior margin, a stripe of white hairs 
each side of median stripe bordered by a dark gray stripe, 
the median dark stripe on the posterior half is the most 
conspicuous marking on the abdomen ; sternum light with a 
cloudy gray center ; venter almost covered by a sharply de- 
fined black spot, near the middle of which, three pairs of 
white muscle spots are distinctly seen, black before the epi- 
gastric fold; legs light yellow without marks, but I meta- 
tarsus and tarsus much darker; spines, I tibia, 2-2-2, 1 lat- 
eral which appears almost as ventral, metatarsus 2-2, 1 
median apical; eyes, anterior row straight by the upper 
margins, shorter than second eye row, a.m.e. larger than 
a.l.e. and separated by less than half a diameter, almost 
touching a.l.e., p.m.e. separated by more than half a diam- 
eter, p.l.e. separated by almost three diameters ; palpus, pa- 
tella and tibia of about equal length, tarsus little longer 
than tibia, palpal organ as figured.
