in some specimens they may be all white (as in the specimen we 
described as Birgei), in others they may be alternating white 
and dark. The metatarsus and tarsus are yellow and without 
fringe; the other legs are yellow, with darker rings at the distal 
ends, and covered with short white hairs. Since first describing 
these spiders we have received more material and now see that 
Birgei was a badly rubbed specimen of elegans.

The integument is black, and under alcohol it seems to be a 
black spider with white bands, but when thoroughly dry, dark 
gold-colored hairs, brighter in the male than in the female, are 
seen to cover the dark portions of the body. The eye-region is 
golden, the front part growing whitish in the female, sometimes 
all white, but still contrasting with four snow-white bands which 
cross it from front to back. The outer two of these bands begin 
at the front lateral eyes, pass below the side eyes and widen out 
behind the dorsal eyes; from this point they grow narrow, and 
after reaching the hind margin, bend forward along the lower 
sides and cross the clvpeus, which has also a white fringe on the 
edge. The middle bands of the eve-region begin at one spot, 
between the large front eyes, and after diverging a little, run 
straight back between the dorsal eyes and are merged in the wid¬ 
ened side bands. This white banded cephalic plate, alike in
