184 Journal New York Entomological Society. [VoL ix. 



says. The type is from New York, and there are not two species of 

 this appearance in that vicinity. 



Lycosa heiluo Wakk., I, p. 337, 1837. 



Plainly Z. nidicola Emerton [Z. hahingtoni Blackwall] . Type is 

 from New York. Z. riparia Hentz is practically identical, but this 

 southern form may prove to be separate since it is always more plainly 

 marked. Trochosa vafra Koch is the same species. 



Lycosa gulosa JVah-k., I, p. 338, 1837. 



Apparently the same as the preceding ; locality is given as ' ' Amer. 

 septent." 



Lycosa tarantula carolinensis JVakk., I, p. 285, 1837. 



This is Z. carolinetisis Hentz, and has place priority over Z. 

 milberti and Z. sayi. Lycosa tarentuloides philadelphiana Walck. is 

 based on a figure found on a plate in the Journ. Philad. Acad. Nat. 

 Sci., II, pi. 5. There is no description in that work. 



Linyphia argyrodes Wakk., 11, p. 282, 1842. 



According to Walckenaer the description is taken from a specimen 

 in his collection that came from either Guadeloupe or Algeria. It 

 certainly is not the Argyrodes trigomim Hentz, but appears to be 

 Argyrodes nephilce Taczanowski (Hor?e Soc. Ent. Ross., IX, p. 114, 

 1872), and has priority. 



Epeira cauta Wakk., II, p. 35. 



From New York. It is indeterminable, may be Epeira sclopetaria, 

 or E. donuciliornm young. 



Epeira benjamina Wakk., II, p. 42. 



The type is from Martinique ; it is probably not E. domicikorum 

 to which McCook refers it. 



Epeira graduata Wakk., II, p. 48. 



From New York. Appears to be Epeira i/isuiaris Hentz without 

 any doubt. The male is described from Abbott's figures, and comes 

 first, so it is the type. 



Epeira circulata JValck., II, p. 79. 



Walckenaer says he describes it from a specimen in his collection. 

 He records it from several Southern localities. Apparently the young 

 of E. halaustina McCook.
