eyes. The second row is halfway between the first and the 
third, and the third is nearly as wide as the cephalothorax. The 
faloes are moderately long and stout and the labium is wider 
than long. The first leg has three pairs of spines on the tibia 
and two pairs on the metatarsus. 
The cephalothorax has the cephalic plate and the lower sides 
black, and the thoracic part reddish brown, while the upper 
sides are covered with a mixture of white and red hairs. The 
front eyes are surrounded by rings of red hairs, and above this 
row is a band of white hairs. The middle of the abdomen is 
occupied by a wide, dark brown, velvety band which has a chev¬ 
ron in the posterior part and ends in a point at the spinnerets. 
The sides are covered by wide bands of white hairs with which 
somie bright red hairs are intermixed. The legs are of a me¬ 
dium brown color, those of the first pair being darkest, and hav¬ 
ing the femoral joints black.

The cephalothorax is high and slopes in both directions from 
the dorsal eyes, the cephalic slope being more rounded than the 
thoracic. The sides, which are vertical and parallel in front, 
widen out at a point well back of the dorsal eyes. The quad¬ 
rangle of the eyes is one-fourth wider than long, is wider in front 
than behind, and occupies two-fifths of the cephalothorax. The 
front eyes are large and close together, in a straight row, the 
middle being less than twice as large as the lateral. The sec¬ 
ond row is halfway between the first and the third, and the third 
row is as wide as the cephalothorax at that place. The sternum 
is 1 truncated in front, and the anterior coxae are separated by 
more than the width of the labium, which is as wide as long. 
The cephalothorax has a black ground with a covering, above, 
of rich red hairs. The thoracic part has a yellowish spot just
