Small, beetle-like, coppery-green spiders, with the cephalothor¬ 
ax fitting over the abdomen. 
Length, $ 4.8 mm.; $ 4.6 mm. Legs, S 1432, 9 4132, 
first pair stoutest in both sexes. Tibia of first with one spine 
below; metatarsus with two pairs. 
The whole spider is covered with green metallic scales, which 
have a coppery iridescence. There is a narrow, yellowish-white 
line around the front end of the abdomen. The legs have a 
scattering of metallic scales. The first pair is dark with light 
tarsi, the others are lighter with the tarsi and the proximal ends 
of the metatarsi white. The scales are easily rubbed off, leav¬ 
ing the body blaok. 
Homalattus septentrionalis K. and Agassa. georgiana E. S. 
were both sent to us by their authors, so that we are sure of 
their identity with cyanea.
