Euophrys monadnock, new sp. 



One male was found on the upper part of Mt. Monadnock, N. H., 

 on the rocks. PI. XX, fig. 2. It is 4""" long, the cephalothorax and 

 abdomen about the same length. The legs are all long^ relative 

 length 4, 1, 3, 2. The ends of the palpi are white as far as the end 

 of the femur. The tarsi of the first and second legs, and the tips of 

 the tarsi of the third and fourth are white. The femora of the 

 third and fourth legs are white, in life, light pink. The rest of the 

 body is deep black. The first and second legs are a little thickened 

 and the metatarsus, tibia and patella, and the end of first femur 

 covered with long scales, as long as the diameter of the leg. The 

 first and second legs are bright purple toward a bright light. 



The front of the head is wide, and the sides of the cephalothorax 

 nearly straight and parallel. Fig. 2c. The front of the head, 

 below the eyes, slopes inward, and the sternum is short and wide. 

 Fig. 2a. 



The palpi are long and slender, the tarsus not much wider than 

 the other joints. The tibial hook is straight and very slender, not 

 much thicker than one of the hairs. Fig. '2d. The palpal organ is 

 long and narrow at the base, where it extends over the tibia. The 

 tube is short and curved around the end of the bulb. Fig. 2e. 



A female, which probably belongs to this species, was found in 

 Dublin, N". H., three miles from Monadnock. It is 5'"'" long, with 

 short and thin hairs and colors like Tegenaria. The cephalothorax 

 has the sides straight and parallel, thi-ee-fourths its length from the 

 front, and is a little rounded behind. Fig, 2/'. The eyes are large 

 and the lateral are more than half as large as the front pair. The pos- 

 terior eyes are as far apart as the length of the front row, and little 

 more than half as far from the lateral. The abdomen is oval, widest 

 behind the middle. The legs are 4, 1, 2, 3, the front pair much 

 thickened and the second slightly so. The cephalothorax is dark 

 brown in front and lighter toward the back, marked with dark 

 radiating lines. The abdomen is gray, with light, angular markings 

 along the middle, and irregular oblique lines at the sides. The legs 

 are without markings, the first pair dai'kest. The epigynum has 

 two large openings about their diameter from the transverse fold.

Euophrys cruciatus, new sp. 



This species is more generally covered with scales than monad' 

 nock, the front tibiae are less thickened, and do not have the long
