Tusitala Braunsii , P. 
Syn. Monclova Braunsii P., 1902. Upon further study we 
believe that Monclova P. should he included in the genus 
Tusitala.

$. Length 7 mm. Legs 4312, the third and fourth plainly 
longer than the first and second. 
The spider is covered with a mixture of white, black, and 
bright rufus hairs, the different colors predominating on dif¬ 
ferent parts so as to form the markings. Thus the cephalic 
plate is bright rufus and the middle line on the thoracic part 
pure white, while the abdomen shows a white band around the 
anterior end, and, on the posterior part of the dorsum, wide al¬ 
ternating transverse bands of rufus and black. These bands 
are not parallel but run upward and forward from the sides. 
The clypeus' lias long white hairs, and these are continued, 
rather sparsely, on to the falces. The legs are not conspicuous, 
being of a light brown color with darker rings and white hairs. 
The light brown palpus is covered with white hairs. 
We have four females, sent by Dr. Brauns, from Cape Col¬ 
ony.

This genus belongs to the Fissidentati, as the inferior mar¬ 
gin of the falx bears a, compound tooth. The indentation on 
one side, however, is sometimes more marked than on the other. 
The species are of medium; size. The cephalothorax is 
rather high, and, in the males, is so widely rounded as to make 
the outline almost circular, while in the females it is plainly 
longer than wide, and is widest in the thoracic part. The high¬ 
est point is at the dorsal eyes, the slope in the cephalic and in 
the anterior thoracic parts being very slight. The quadrangle 
of the eyes is one-third wider than long, is a little wider in front 
than behind, and occupies two-fifths of the cephalothorax. 
The front eyes are large, close together, and form' a straight
