has, below the lateral eyes, four white lines on a dark back¬ 
ground, the lower two of which cross the wide clypeus. These 
lines pass around, on the sides, to a point just behind the lat¬ 
eral eyes. The falces are rather short and stout, brown in 
color, with some long white hairs. The abdomen is also cov¬ 
ered with white and red hairs, the front end being whitish. 
Two slender white lines run back, on the dorsum], to the middle 
point, and behind this is a series of lighter and darker chevrons. 
On each side are two curved white bands. The palpi are brown 
with white hairs. The legs have the proximal ends pale, but 
are otherwise brown with a good covering of white and red 
hairs. 
We have two females from Durban.

outer sides. Under the lateral eyes are short white hairs 
marked by two dark lines. The abdomen is black on each side, 
above, with white hairs at the base and in a central band, the 
latter being edged with yellow. It is crossed by a curved yel¬
