The lephalothorax is dark brown with a patch of white hairs 
above the first row of eyes. A white band runs along the 
upper side of the lateral eye of the first row, and below and be¬ 
hind the dorsal eye, and a patch of white on the thoracic part 
extends only halfway down the slope. When not rubbed the 
cephalothorax has reddish hairs around the white spots and 
around the eyes. The abdomen on the sides is dark, or is pale 
brown with black hairs. In the middle of the first half is 
a white band, and behind this is a metallic brown band with 
three or four small white spots on each edge. When the ab¬ 
domen is looked at from the side a curved white band is seen, 
which starts low down at about the middle point and runs back¬ 
ward and downward to the end of the venter. The legs and 
palpi are brown, the front face of the femur of the first leg 
being marked with dark, transverse striae, which are faintly 
repeated on the femur of the second. The falces project and 
are short and broad, of a dark brown, somewhat iridescent color, 
and thinly covered with short white hairs. The fangs are 
strong. The spines on the tibia of the first leg are in two 
rows, four in front and three behind (see drawing), or, in 
some individuals, four in front and two behind. The tibia of 
the second leg has the spines 3-3 or 3-2. The metatarsus 
of the first has two pairs. 
We have several mules from Durban. The species is named 
for Mr. George F. Leigh of that city.
