third and fourth pairs. The first leg, and the second, in a 
much slighter degree, have black fringes under the patella, 
tibia and metatarsus. The tarsus of the first is pale, except a 
reddish spot at tfie end. 
This, species is distinguished from Palpelius arboreus, which 
it resembles, by having the metatarsus of the first leg dark, 
with a black fringe throughout its length. In arboreu s this 
joint is pale, and has no fringe. 
One male. 
Bathippus Shelf or dii sp. nov. 
This is a slender, long-legged species, with a metallic hand 
on the abdomen. The first leg has a ridge of hairs above the 
femur, and a fringe below the patella. 
$. Length 8 mm. Legs 3142, toe third longer than the sec¬ 
ond and fourth by the tarsus and metatarsus. The metatar., 
sus of the third is very long. 
The cephalothorax is high, the cephalic part being nearly 
level, while the thoracic falls in a rounded slope from the 
third row of eyes. The sides are widely rounded out in the 
thoracic part. The quadrangle of the eyes occupies one-half 
of the cephalothorax, is less than one-fifth wider than long, 
and is wider in front than behind. The first row is curved 
up, the eyes being large and subtouching, the lateral further 
back than the middle and more than half as large. The second 
row is halfway between the others. The dorsal eyes are on 
black tubercles and form a row narrower than the cephalo¬ 
thorax. The clypeus is only a line. The falces are long, 
oblique and divergent, the fang being nearly as long as the 
falx. There is a short apophysis near the distal end and a 
small tooth at the proximal end above. The lower side has one 
tooth near the distal end. The sternum is oval and wide with 
a projection behind, and is slightly truncated in front. The 
front coxa? are widely separated. The labium is but little 
longer than wide, and is only one-third as long as the max- 
illse. The patella of the first leg is as wide as long and is 
rounded above. The third leg is enlarged at the junction of 
the tibia and metatarsus.
