A male specimen of Solpugid from Spitzkoppe, Erongo Mts., sent to me by Dr. C. Koch, Director of the Desert Research Station, Gobabeb, differs completely from any known species of the order from Southern Africa in its colouring, and from all other genera of the family Solpugidae, except Zeriassa, in the setation of the coxae of the legs. Keywords: Family Solpugidae, Order Solifugae, Solpugid from South West Africa.
