patches of short yellow hairs, and spots of pure white hairs at 
the proximal ends of the joints. On the tarsi of the first and 
second legs these white hairs grow upon a yellow ring. The 
palpus has some white hairs, hut many more black ones. The 
venter is pale, with a dark line down the middle, and dark sides. 
In the female the eye-region is covered with dull golden 
hairs. On the sides and thoracic part streaks of yellow and 
black hairs run upward from the margin. The middle of the 
clypeus, the falces and the palpi are covered with bristly white 
"hairs, the falces having also some short black bristles. Under 
the lateral eyes, running backward, are alternate lines of white 
and yellow hairs, very characteristic and striking in appear¬ 
ance. The abdomen is mottled with black and yellowish hairs, 
there being a darkening of color on each side of the middle. 
The sides are marked with three oblique white bands. 
Under alcohol the abdomen has a light colored longitudinal 
band, of irregular outline, down the middle, and mottled black¬ 
ish bands, which are more or less broken into large spots, on 
the sides. In the posterior third a curved yellow line comes 
up over each side and runs into the central band, which, be¬ 
hind this point, is broken into two or three chevrons by the 
crossing of dark lines. Just above the spinnerets is a large 
dark spot. Below the dark side bands the abdomen is light 
colored. The venter is light with three fine longitudinal dark 
lines. The palpi are light, with long light hairs, and two small 
dark spots on the dorsal face. The legs are yellowish-brown 
with a few dark spots. Under the tibiae of the first and sec¬ 
ond are three pairs of spines, and under the metatarsi, two 
pairs. The third and ‘fourth legs have strong spines., not in 
pairs. 
We have one male and several females from Mashonaland, 
received from Mr. Workman, and Mr. Marshall.
