190 F. P. SMITH ON SOME BRITISH SPIDERS TAKEN IN 1907. 



Entelecara erythropus (Westr.), 1851. 



1851. Erigone erythropa, Westr., Goteb. Handl. 



1862. Walckenaera borecdis, Camb., Zoologist. 



1879. ,, erythropa, Camb., Spid. Dorset. 



1906. Entelecara erythropus, F. P. Smith, Journ. Quekett Club. 



These two species occurred in great abundance throughout the 

 first three weeks of June, 1907, upon stone gate-posts, copings of 

 walls, and iron railings in many parts of St. Leonards. The 

 male of the former may be easily distinguished by the greatly 

 elevated caput, as figured in Journ. Quekett Club, Ser. 2, Vol. ix., 

 PI. 1, Fig. 1. The females, however, require very careful exami- 

 nation to separate them, and several published figures of the 

 epigynal parts of these species being very imperfect and mis- 

 leading, I hope to be able in a future communication to illustrate 

 the specific characters of this sex.
