hook. Fig. 2<7. The under process is very thin and about as long 

 as the lateral. The tarsus is widened on the inner side and the 

 tube is long and slender, starting near the base of the bulb. The 

 eyes are close in both sexes. Figs. 2c, 2f?, 2e, 

 A very common species all over New England. 



Philodromus ornatus Banks.

Plate XXXI, figures 3-36. 



The female of this species is small and very distinctly marked 

 with dark brown on a white ground. The middle of the cephalo- 

 thorax is white and the sides brown nearly to the edge. The 

 abdomen is white with a distinct brown band each side from 

 the front more than half its length. PI. xxxi, fig. 3. Some- 

 times there is also an indistinct brownish pattern in the middle, but 

 this is usually absent in adults and the middle is entirely white. 

 The coxse are brown and the rest of the legs white, except a little 

 brown at the ends of the joints. Under the abdomen the lateral 

 brown bands extend backward and meet across the spinnerets. The 

 abdomen is nearly as wide as long and widest across the hinder half. 



The male which I suppose belongs to this species has the legs and 

 cephalothorax orange brown, darker at the sides of the thorax and 

 toward the ends of the legs. The abdomen is dark reddish-brown, 

 strongly iridescent with red and green in a bright light. In 

 alcohol it shows brown markings at the sides similar to those of the 

 female, and also indistinct angular marks in the middle of the hinder 

 half. The palpi are long, but the tibia is little longer than wide and 

 narrower than the patella. The outer process is small and the under 

 process wide and long, extending over the bulb a third its length. 

 PI. XXXI, figs. 3«, 3J. The tarsus is widest across the middle and 

 straight on the outer side. The tube is very long and slender 

 beginning at the base of the bull) near the under tibial process.

Philodromtis lineatus, new sp. 



Plate XXXI, figures 4-4r. 



The female of this species is a little larger than ornatus and the 



brown markings are lighter, and in life, or when freshly killed, 



purplish in the lighter parts. The markings are less distinct than 



in ornatus, the brown and white running into each other. The abdo-
