Ohs. — Two perfect and one badlj^ broken specimens were 

 collected, in addition to one diminutive and immature form. 

 In his " Monographic List of the Gasteracantha," Butler 

 (snpru) says : — "Our dried examples of this species are much 

 bi'oken, and show no trace of the dark bands mentioned in 

 Koch's description ; but the large depressed spots of tlie sec- 

 ond series seem rather continuous with the first than the thii-d 

 series, as in G. taeniata.'''' In the perfect specimen before me 

 the two dark bands referred to bj Koch are decidedly distinct. 

 The species is apparently somewhat variable ; its range is 

 Papua, Queensland, Northern N.S. Wales, New Caledonia and 

 the Falkland Isles.
