phwnosa Kr., men kjendes let ved de oventil tret haa- 
le de forreste Bagkropssegmenter og navnlig ved den eien- 
donimelige og meget ipinefaldende Bevrebning af sidste Fod-

Beskrivelse af Hunnen. Lege met er (se PI. XIII, 
Dig- 8) af meget kort og underssetsig Form, med Forkroppen 
hunnielig opblrest og Epimererne mere udviklede end hos 
de foregaaende Arter. 
Hovedet er ogsaa forholdsvis storre og oventil stark ere 
hvadvet, saa at Pandepladen viser sig tydeligt nedadkrummet. 
He 4 Par forreste Epimerer er kjendeligt hoiere end 
selve Kroppen og i sin nedre Kant forsynede med en Rad 
f d cilierede Borster. 
De 3 forreste Bagkropssegmenter er oventil tret be- 
^atte med korte Borster, der giver dem et eget laaddent 
Udseende. Deres Sideplader er forholdsvis betydelig lavere 
en d hos de foregaaende Arter, og de paa 3die Segment er 
dagtil udtrukne i et spidst, noget opadkrummet Hjorne. 
De f’olgende Segmenter er oventil jevnt hvmlvede, nden Kjol 
eller Portsatser. 
Af 0ine er her ligesaalidt som hos de i det fore- 
gaaende omtalte Arter noget Spor at se. 
Polerne (Fig. 8 a — b) er temmelig korte og robuste, 
forovrigt af smdvanlig Bygning. 
De 2 forreste Fodpar (Fig. 8 c) har Haanden nresten 
nsiagtig af sarnrne Form som hos foregaaende Art. 
6te Fodpar (se Fig. 8) er ogsaa meget overensstem- 
naendc bygget, men forholdsvis noget lamgere og kraftigere. 
Sidste Fodpar (Fig. 8 d) viser derimod i Formen og 
Devrebnirigen af Hofteleddet en meget ioinefaldende Forskj el 
* ra klle ovrige bekjendte Arter. Dette Led er som ssed- 
'anlig pladeformigt udvidet, men den bagre Udvidning er 
ln eget skraa, saa at den overrager 3die Led, og dens Kanter 
er V(1 d regelmsessige Indsnit delt i 6 triangulaert tilspidsede 
Dortsatser eller grove Saugtakker, imellem livilke staar frem 
Borster. 
abdominal segments densely pubescent above; lateral plates 
on 3rd segment comparatively small, and produced post- 
eriorly to a sharp, somewhat upward-curving corner. No 
eyes. Antennae short, of the usual structure. The 2 first 
pairs of legs with hand of a similar form to that in IT. 
mucronata. Last pair of legs having posterior maigin of 
basal joint exceedingly arcuate, and divided into 6 triangular- 
acute projections, or coarse teeth. Caudal stylets and tel- 
son as in preceding species. Colour greyish. Length fi . 
Locality, — Stat. 224. 
Remarks. — The present species approximates very 
closely II. plumosa Kr., but is easily recognized by the 
anterior abdominal segments being densely pubescent above, 
and more especially by the peculiar and very conspicuous 
armature distinguishing the basal joint of the last pair of 
l egSi a character, indeed, from which the specific designa- 
tion is derived. 
Description of the Female. — The body (see PI. 
XIII, fig. 8) is exceedingly short and thickset, with the an- 
terior division rather inflated, and the epimera more developed 
than in the preceding species. 
The head, too, occurs relatively larger and more 
prominently arched above, * giving to the frontal plate a- 
distinct appearance of being curved downwaids. 
The 4 anterior pairs of epimera are appreciably higliei 
than the body itself, and furnished along the lower margin 
with a series of ciliated bristles. 
The 3 anterior abdominal segments are closely beset 
above with short bristles, that give them a characteristic 
pubescent appearance. Their lateral plates are relatively 
much smaller than in the preceding forms, and those on 
the 3rd segment are produced posteriorly to an acute, some- 
what upward -curving corner. The succeeding segments 
are uniformly arched above, without either keel or projec- 
tion. . . . 
Of eyes, as in the preceding species, not a trace could 
be detected. 
The antenna* (fig. 8 a — b) are rather short and robust, 
for the rest normal in structure. 
The 2 anterior pairs of legs (fig. 8 c) have the hand 
of almost precisely the same form as in the preceding 
species. 
The 6th pair of legs (see fig. 8) exhibit, too, very 
considerable agreement as to structure, but ’are relatively 
somewhat longer and more powerful. 
The last pair of legs (fig. 8 d) differ, on the other 
hand most conspicuously in the form and armature of the 
b asa l joint from all other known species. This articulation 
is as usual, lamelliform-dilated, but the posterior dilata- 
tion is very oblique, projecting beyond the 3rd joint, and 
its margins are divided by regular incisions into 6 triang- 
ular-pointed projections, or coarse serratures, between which 
rise a number of short bristles.
