RECORDS OF THE AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM. 
?. Cephalothorax, 5*9 mm. long, 4*6 mm. broad; abdomen, 
12 mm. long, 6 '8 mm. broad. 
Cephalothorax longer than broad, flat, dull yellowish-brown ; 
sparingly clothed with short yellowish pubescence. Caput flat, 
and level with thoracic segment. Clypeus sparingly clothed with 
yellowish pubescence ; broadest in front, retreating gradually to 
posterior extremity, surface uneven ; the median depression is a 
very short, straight, shallow groove ; radial grooves indistinct. 
Eyes distributed over three transverse rows of 4, 2, 2 ; of these 
the first row is strongly procurved ; the lateral eyes of this row 
are minute, and are seated at the extremity of cylindrical tubercles, 
springing from the corners of the clypeus ; the median eyes are 
also minute, and are placed closely together, immediately below 
the two large eyes constituting the second row ; those of the 
third or posterior row are seated well back, and are widely re- 
moved from each other. 
Legs long, slender, brown, clothed with hoary pubescence, and 
armed with a few short spines. Relative lengths 1 = 2, 4, 3. 
Palpi short, similar in colour and armature to legs. 
Falces long, strong, perpendicular, divergent, dark brown, the 
inner margins fringed with long, yellowish hairs, the outer surface 
sparingly clothed with greyish pubescence. 
Maxillce dark brown, long, strong, constricted towards the 
insertion of the palpi, thence greatly divergent, and rounded oif 
at the extremities. 
Labium concolorous, rather broader at the base than the apex, 
which is truncated. 
Sternum subtriangular, dark brown laterally, otherwise pale 
yellowish ; the surface pubescent. 
Abdomen moderately arched, much longer than broad, angular, 
narrow in front, but gradually broadening out towards its middle, 
where it is widest, and thence sharply tapering off to its ultimate 
extremity ; the superior surface and sides are yellow-brown, and 
reticulated ; commencing at its anterior extremity there is a dark 
brown, rather deep longitudinal median groove of varying width, 
the margins of which are rough and irregular; the groove terminates 
at a point a little below the centre ; at a distance of rather more 
than one-third the length of this groove, there are two small, 
bark brown spots, seated on either side, but quite close to the 
outer margins; at the widest part of the abdomen there are two 
lateral obtuse tubercular projections, and these are moderately 
high; the inferior surface is also yellowish-brown, and reticulated. 
Epigyne a simple, dark brown tubercular eminence, the overhang- 
ing lip of which curves slightly upwards towards the centre. 
Cribellum transverse, undivided. Spinnerets long and cylindrical.
