rubbing away of hairs, and the others low on the sides. The 
face view is very striking. The four anterior eyes, instead of 
being of the usual dull, opaque hue, are bright, emerald green 
in a setting of pale red hairs, which surround them and cover 
the wide clypeus. Above the red hairs, forming a sort of eye¬ 
brow, is a projecting ridge of stiff black hairs. The legs are 
light brown, with black and white hairs and pale spines. The 
palpi are covered with light brownish hairs. The falces are 
weak and pale.

This is a brown species, the cephalothorax being a little 
darker in color than the abdomen and legs. 
The quadrangle of the eyes is very short, occupying scarcely 
one-third of the cephalo thorax. The anterior eyes are sub¬ 
touching, in a curved row, the middle being less than twice as 
large as the lateral. The second row is plainly nearer the first 
than the third. The third row is nearly as wide as the ceph- 
a.lothorax at that place, the eyes being large and promi¬ 
nent, The cephalothorax, abdomen, and legs are covered with 
a mixture of red, black, and white hairs, giving a uniform 
bright brown tint. Around the lower edge of the cephalothorax 
is a white line edged with black, and on the clypeus the hairs 
are white. The under parts are brown, the labium 1 and m,ax¬ 
illae being tipped with white. The small, retreating falces are 
brown. 
We have two females from Robben Island, Table Bay, Cape 
Peninsula, collected by Mr. R. M. Lightfoot.
