Cephalothorax not very high and only slightly convex, usually 
inclined in both directions from the dorsal eyes, sometimes level 
for a short distance in the anterior thoracic part (vitis, similis 
2 ). Sides usually nearly parallel, sometimes rounded out a 
little behind the dorsal eyes (Wickhamii, exornatus, formicar¬ 
ius, vitis). Eye-region about 1-3 wider than long, occupying 
about 2-5 of the cephalothorax, wider behind than in front. 
Eront eyes in a straight or slightly curved row (plainly curved 
in the males of elegans and similis). Middle eyes about twice 
as large as laterals. Second row nearer the first than the third 
(formicarius, Wickhamii) or halfway between. Dorsal eyes 
forming a row as wide or nearly as wide as the cephalothorax, 
sometimes very large (sexmaculatus). Abdomen usually long, 
slender and cylindrical. Sternum oval, rounded or truncated 
in front. Coxse of first pair separated by width of labium ex¬ 
cept in exornatus. Labium not much longer than wide. Ealces 
usually vertical, sometimes directed forward (vitis $ ) ; lower 
margin with a single conical tooth except in Wickhamii, which 
has the compound tooth characteristic of the Eissidentati. Legs, 
8 1423, $ 4123, first pair, at least the femur, enlarged, often 
marked with longitudinal dark lines. Hairs and scales very 
small, often iridescent, showing many colors, although in some 
species the colors are dull. Spiders rather small.
