268 JV. Banks — Spiders and Mites from the Bermuda Islands. 



6. Argyrodes nepliilce Taoz. + 



7. Pholcus tipuloides Koch. 



8. Dysdera crocata Koch. 



9. Plexippus paylculU And. 



10. Tapinattus melanognathus Lucas. 



11. Heteropoda venatoria Linn. 

 1-2. Lycosa atlantica Marx. 



Although in the present list there are many more species than in 

 these two together, there are five species in these lists (indicated 

 by +) which do not appear in the collections of Prof. Verrill. Add- 

 ing these to the present list, we have a total of 33 spiders known 

 from the Bermudas. 



Three of Blackwall's list he considered new ; the other three do 

 not show anything as to the affinities of the fauna. Of Dr. Marx's 

 twelve species, ten are found in the Southern United States, but 

 most of these are widely distributed in the neotropical region. The 

 present list will not uphold this affinity to the mainland, but indi- 

 cates a relationship with the West Indian fauna. 



Although Blackwall described three new species in his list, Dr. 

 Marx one in his, and the writer three in this list, it is quite improb- 

 able that any of the species are peculiar to the islands ; two of those 

 here described are known to me from Hayti, and elsewhere in the 

 West Indies.
