Reading edition
Genus Galeodes, Oliv.—1. G. pallipes, Say.—Hairy, mandibles horizontal, fingers regularly arquated, abdomen sub-depressed livid.
Body pale yellowish-brown, hairy; feet paler, whitish, first pair smallest, fourth pair largest and longest; abdomen livid, hairy, sub-depressed; palpi more robust than the three anterior pairs of feet, of subequal diameter, but rather thicker towards the tip; more hairy than the feet; eyes and tubercle blackish; mandibles dilated, with numerous rigid setæ, and with parallel setæ projected over the fingers; fingers regularly arquated, reddish-brown at tip, and with a reddish-brown line above and beneath, within armed with many robust teeth; thorax with a deep sinus at the anterior angles.
2. G. subulata, Say.—Hairy; mandibles horizontal; thumb nearly rectilinear, destitute of teeth. This species has the strongest resemblance to the preceding, both in form, magnitude, and colouring; but the superior finger of the mandibles is unarmed, and rectilinear or very slightly flexuous; the inferior finger is arquated, with about two robust teeth.—James.
