$. Length 6.5 mm. Legs 1342, first pair stoutest and dark¬ 
est, second next. 
The quadrangle of the eyes occupies nearly one-half of the 
eephalothorax and is a, little wider behind than in front. The 
front lateral eyes are a little separated from the middle eyes, 
and with them form a curved row, the middle being scarcely 
twice as large as the lateral. The third row of eyes is much 
narrower than the eephalothorax. 
The eephalothorax is dark brown with yellowish-white hairs 
in a band above the first row of eyes, in a central spot on the 
thoracic part., and in bands along the upper sides. There are 
red rings around the front eyes. The abdomen has a, central 
band which is covered with yellowish-white hairs in front and 
is brown and metallic behind. This band is edged with red, 
and in this color, in the posterior half, are several pairs of white 
dots. The sides are dark, almost black, where they meet the red 
bands, and have curved white bands low down behind. The 
palpi are dark brown. The falces are stout, slightly project¬ 
ing, and iridescent brown in color, with some white hairs in 
front. The first legs are dark brown, the others yellow. The 
front face of the femur, in the first and second pairs, is black, 
'without striae. The tibia of the first has, below, three spines 
behind, and four in front, placed at nearly equal distances; 
the tibia of the second has two in front and three behind. 
The metatarsi have two pairs. The venter is dark, the coxae 
are yellow, and the maxillae brown with white on the inner 
front edges. 
We have a single male from Algoa Bay.

The eephalothorax is high and not very convex, highest at 
the dorsal eyes, from which point it slopes a very little for¬ 
ward, and more decidedly, but still gradually, backward, the
