Synonymical Notes in Spiders. 



By NATHAN BANKS. 



Anypheena rubra Em. = A. (clubiona) gracilis Hentz. 

 Pythonissa. sericata Koch. = P. (herpyllus] bicolor Hentz. 



AGALENID^E. 



Amaurobius sylvestris Em. = A. (cinifld] bennetti Blk. 



THERIDID/E. 



Theridium. brassiccz Fitch = T. frondeum Hentz. 

 Theridium hypophyllum Fitch = a $ Didyna. 

 As it cannot be farther identified it may be dropped from the 



lists. 

 Erigone zonaria Keys = Bathyphantes micaria Em. 



EPEIRID^E. 



Epeira decipiens Fitch = E. displicata Hentz. 

 Epeira canadensis Blk. = Cyclosa conica Pallas. 

 Epeira approximate. Blk. E. trifoliuin Hentz. 

 Epeira rubella Hentz = E. directa Hentz. 

 Epeira spiculata Hentz = E. placida Hentz. 

 Tetragnatha armigera Blk. 



This is probably T. laboriosa Hentz; it certainly does not per- 

 tain to anything different from T. grallator, T. extensa and 

 T. laboriosa, and so may be dropped from the lists. It 

 cannot be recognized as different. 



LYCOSID^E. 



Lycosa nidicola Em. R. babingtoni Blk. 

 Lvcosa maritima Hentz = Trochosa cinerea Fab. 

 Pardosa albopatella Em. : - P (Lycosa} minima Keys. 

 Pardosa nigra Stone -- Aulonia? (Lycosa) funerea Hentz. 



Icins vittatus Keys = Ictus mitratus Hentz. 



Salticus sundevalli Blk. Marptusa familiaris Hentz. 



In my paper on "Hentz Spiders" in ENT. NEWS for May, 

 1891, Dendryphantes capitatus (Hentz) Peck, and D. octavus 

 Hentz were so printed as to appear as distinct species; 

 whereas, as might be observed from the text, it was intended 

 that the former should stand as a synonym of the latter.
