Peckham—Revision of the Attidce of North America. 415 
tal ends of the joints, covered with white scales and having light 
white fringes. 
We have two males and a female from Claremont, Cal., sent 
by Mr. Johnson. This species may be the Pacific slope repre¬ 
sentative of insignarius, the two males resembling each other 
in the color and pattern of the abdomen. Insignarius is a 
heavier spider, especially as to the legs, and has a different 
cephalothorax, since the red is lacking, and the white side bands 
instead of stopping at the dorsal eyes, pass to the front end and 
cross the clypeus. The falces, convex and hairless in coccineus, 
are flattened and have white hairs in insignarius. The fringe 
on the first leg is heavier in insignarius, and while it is double 
under the femur of the first, it does not bifurcate, but is divided 
by a dark line throughout the length of the joint; the first and 
second legs, too, are marked with orange colored bars which are 
not seen in coccineus. The palpus of coccineus has a white 
band throughout its length, while in insignarius the band marks 
only the femur. 
Femoratus is also much like coccineus, but the male, besides 
having the first leg differently ornamented, has a white band 
above the front row of eyes, the white band on the palpus is com 
fined to the femur, and the falces, instead of being bare and 
blue, are dark, and thinly covered with white hairs which form 
vertical streaks. The females are most easily distinguished by 
the difference in the abdomens.

Above the first row of eyes, in the male, is a band of white 
hairs somewhat mixed with red. Back of this is a dark band, 
and behind this, again, occupying a central position between 
the dorsal eye elevations, is a large white figure on a red ground. 
From the lateral eyes wide white bands pass back along the
