Peckham—Revision of the Attidce of North America. 547 
spines below, and 3 on the front side, 2 of these, at distal end, 
spatnlate, overlapping each other, the distal one loss developed. 
Under alcohol the male has the eye-region black, scalloped be¬ 
hind. The upper sides and the middle of the thoracic part are 
dark. On the lower sides are wide white bands which curve up 
on the thoracic part and run forward to the dorsal eyes. The 
abdomen is black with a, white band at the base which passes 
back, in scallops, along the sides. On the middle of the back 
is a pair of white spots, and behind these is a central white spot. 
Legs, pale yellowish ; femur I white below, with long white hair, 
dark brown in front and behind, with a pale stripe above; tibia 
I without fringes or dark lines; femur III mostly dark brown 
in front; femur and patella IV, dark at tip. Palpus with snow- 
white hair on outside of tarsus. Clypeus yellowish-brown. 
Falces black. 
The female is dark gray with the pattern in light-gray or 
white. Two white bands pass back from the sides of the eye- 
region. The lower sides are gray. The abdomen is dark with 
an encircling white band and three pairs of white curved bands 
coming up over the sides. The first pair is stopped at the upper 
surface, by short white lines at right angles which run forward 
to the base. Behind the middle is a central white figure made 
up of a bar and a chevron. There is no contrast between the 
coxae and trochanters and the other joints. The falces are dark 
red with scattering white hairs, and there are some white hairs 
under the middle eyes. 
Mr. Banks has a pair from Punta Gorda, Fla., and a male 
from Palm Beach, Fla., and we have it from Waycross, Ga., and 
Lenoir, Tenn. 
Calcaratus is nearest coronatus, but the male has no red on 
the clypeus, has the tibia of the first differently spined, the fe¬ 
mur of the first differently fringed, and the falx has not a white 
spot on a dark ground. The palpi are very different. The fe¬ 
males are more difficult as the pattern is the same in both, but 
in calcaratus the ground color is dark gray, while in coronatus 
it is light yellowish. The transverse band on the abdomen is 
37— S. & A.
