The cephalothorax has golden scales above and on the sides and 
a white marginal band which extends from front to back in the 
female, but in the male is limited to the thoracic part. Just be- 
hind each dorsal eye is a whitish spot. The clypeus, and the 
upper part of the falces have long, yellowish-white scales. The 
abdomen is covered with golden scales. There is a white band 
around the front part, which runs back on the sides to near the 
spinnerets, where it ends in a curved white band which runs up 
on to the back. In some specimen especially in females not 
quite mature, there is a second pair of white curved bands on 
the sides, just back of the middle. In the female the legs and 
palpi are light brown. In the male the first leg is dark except¬ 
ing the tarsus, which is yellow, the patella and tibia having a 
line of white scales along the inner face. The other legs have 
the femur and tibia dark, the patella brown, the metatarsus yel¬ 
low with a black ring at the distal end and the tarsus yellow. 
The palpus is black. 
This species has been reported from Kansas, Colorado, Utah, 
Arizona, Kew Mexico, Texas, and California.

This is the smallest and most delicately formed species that 
we have in the genus Icius, and is distinguished from all others 
by the compound tooth on the lower margin of the falx. The 
general ground color is dark, and the cephalothorax has no mar¬ 
ginal band. In our specimens the scales are much rubbed, but 
there are a few left of a slightly metallic silvery color, both on
