228 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



These facts clearly indicate how rich a harvest remains to be 

 reaped in this branch of our fauna. 



Many of the species were present in great abundance, 

 indeed the wealth of spider life generally in the district 

 struck me as well pronounced in comparison with other 

 Scottish localities I have collected in. Of course the ex- 

 ceptionally fine weather of the spring and summer of 1893 

 must be borne in mind. 



The arrangement and nomenclature followed in this list 

 are the same as in our paper on the Spiders of the Edinburgh 

 District recently published in the " Proceedings of the Royal 

 Physical Society," vol. xii. p. 527. 



We have again to thank Mr. Cambridge for assistance in 

 the identification of a number of the more difficult species.]
