Plate XXVI, fig. 8. 
A rather large, pale species. 
$. Length 10.3 mm. Legs 3124, nearly equal in length, first 
and second pairs slightly stouter than the others. 
The eephalothorax, with the exception of the eye region, is 
smooth and pale. The region enclosed by the eyes is covered 
with light, silky, iridescent hairs, and is surrounded by a ring 
of beautiful red spots which are placed around and between the 
eyes, two of them appearing between the eyes of the third row. 
The abdomen, in our specimen, has been rubbed, and shows 
a pale, smooth surface, covered with reticulating dark lines, 
and some patches of silky hairs like those on the eye region. 
Just in front of the spinnerets there is a dark spot. The venter, 
which is pale with reticulating lines., shows a similar dark spot 
at the posterior end. The sternum is yellow. The mouth- 
parts are white, tipped with black. The falces are large, long 
and vertical, and are pale, with, reddish fangs. The legs are 
white tipped with black and have many black spines, the tibia 
of the first and second having three, and the metatarsi two pairs 
without lateral spines. The palpi are white with dark specks 
and long white hairs. 
We have one female from Salisbury, Mashonaland, sent by 
Mr. Marshall.
