common and widely dispersed, excepting Oligolophus alpinus, 

 Herbst., which is a northern form. Although so few in number it 

 has been thought worth while to record these few Arachnids as a 

 small contribution to our knowledge of this group in those far-off 

 regions, while it cannot be doubted but that they are a very meagre 

 representation of what that locality contains. 



ARACHNIDA. 



ARANEIDEA. 



AmauroMus fenestralis, Stroem. Several examples, but all immature. 

 Tegeuaria Derhamii, Scop. One immature female.

 Xysticus cristatus, Clk. Immature females. 

 Pirata piraticus, Clk. An immature female.

PHALANGIDEA.

Ptinus teetus, Boield., in Scotland. On 2Sth October last I 

 found this beetle plentifully in a meal mill at Uunfermline, and 

 submitted specimens to Prof. Hudson Beare, who visited the mill a 

 month later and also found the insect in abundance. Pf. teetus is 

 apparently quite a recent introduction into this country see note 

 by Prof. Beare in " Ent. Mo. Mag.," 1904, p. 4. WILLIAM EVANS,

Triehoptera new to Scotland. The following local and interest- 

 ing Caddis-flies have recently been captured by me in South-east 

 Scotland, and have been identified by Mr. K. J. Morton : 



Halesus gnttatipennis, J/'Z. -- Cobbinshaw Reservoir, Mid- 

 lothian, over a dozen ( o* 6* ) captured, and at least a score more 

 seen, 8th November 1905 ; were taking short flights in the sunshine.
