upper sides of the cephalothorax; these bauds are edged, below, 
with dark brown, and the lower sides are covered with tawny 
hairs. Above there is a white band just over the front eyes, the 
rest of the cephalic plate being mottled with white and brown. 
On the middle of the thoracic part is a large white figure, nar¬ 
rowing behind, edged by dark brown bands which run back from 
the dorsal eyes and meet at the end of the cephalothorax. The 
dark tufts on the eye-region are rather prominent. The abdo¬ 
men has a wide white band across the base and along the front 
sides, and behind this are three diagonal bars, the last of which 
makes a turn low down on the side and curves up, above the 
spinnerets, forming a parenthesis. On the back there is a wide 
central white band which begins in two spots a little behind the 
base and reaches as far as the front end of the parenthesis, and 
behind this the middle region is metallic. The falces are dark 
red with long white hairs on their inner sides. The palpi are 
reddish with long white hairs. The legs are rufus with blackish 
spots or rings at the ends of the j oints and are well covered with 
white scales. There seems to have been a light white fringe 
on the first, but this, in our specimens, is nearly demolished. 
This species is nearest otiosus, but is distinct by the pattern 
and the epigynum. We have two females from Austin, Texas.

The posterior thoracic slope and the cephalic plate are black, 
the latter having a white spot in the middle. A wide white 
band crosses the clypeus, occupies the sides of the cephalic and 
anterior thoracic parts, and passes across the thorax behind the 
dorsal eyes. There are two tufts of black hairs on each side of 
the head. The middle of the abdomen is occupied by a dark 
more or less bronzy region, on which are two rather indistinct
