MALE— Length, 3.11 nun.; width of abdomen, .7 mm.; length of ceph.th., 1.8 nun.; width 
of ceph.th., .8 mm. 
Legs, 8, 2.2, 2.5, 3.2. 
The cephalothorax is low ; the thoracic part is much longer than 
the cephalic, and has two constrictions, one .just behind the dorsal 
eyes, forming a high ridge, and a second just before the base. In 
color it is brown, lighter on the upper surface, sometimes blackish on 
the sides, smooth, glabrous, with a few short white hairs in the eye- 
region. 
The quadrangle of the eyes is wider than long, and a very little 
wider behind. The dorsal eye is slightly larger than the lateral, and 
is higher, a straight line from its lower border passing above the 
lateral eye. The small median eye is equidistant from the lateral and 
dorsal eyes, and is on a line with the lower border of the dorsal. The 
anterior row of eyes is slightly curved, a straight line from the top of 
the middle eyes cutting the lateral eyes above the centre. The middle 
are four times as large as the lateral eyes, and all four are touching. 
The clypeus is one-fourth as wide as the middle eyes. It is vertical, 
and blackish, without hairs. 
The palpus has a stout, blunt, tibial apophysis. The bulb is 
rounded. The tube is long ; it curves once around the bulb, and then 
passes to the extremity of the tarsus. 
The falees are weak, short, vertical, black, with pale edges. 
The maxilla! are enlarged and truncated at the tip ; their color is 
white, with a black central spot. The lip is wider than long, less than 
half as long as the maxillae, truncated at the tip, black, edged with 
white. 
The sternum is long. The anterior half is pale. The posterior 
half blackish. The anterior thighs are separated by the width of the 
lip at the base. 
The relative length of the legs is 4, 1, 3, 2. They are all slender. 
The first leg is pale, with an internal and an external black line on
