Wideria antica (Wid.) Found pretty commonly under 

 stones and amongst the herbage in Normanby Intake 

 Plantation, Eston and Lonsdale. 



Cornicularia cuspidata (Bl.) In sphagnum and among 

 rushes on Eston and Easby Moors. 



Cornicularia unicornis (Camb.) Pretty generally distri- 

 buted. Eston Moor, Marton, Nunthorpe, etc. Generally 

 beaten from tufts of grass. 



Cornicularia vigilax (Bl.) I am informed by Mr. Falconer 

 that he got this species in Coatham Marsh. 



Notioscopus sarcinatus (Sim.) This species is new to 

 Britain and has only been previously reported from Nurem- 

 burg, Germany, and the Department of Aisne, France. 

 It seems widely distributed in this locality in wet places 

 on the moors, and is far from uncommon. Considering the 

 remarkable structure of the male, it seems extraordinary 

 that it should hitherto have escaped observation at other 

 points in Britain. Localities : — Eston Moor (1) In the 

 swamp in the middle of the moor ; (2) amongst moss on the 

 edge of the stream near the mine. Lonsdale : — Near the 

 Alder wood in sphagnum. Since I first discovered it, Mr. 

 Falconer has taken females at Boosbeck. Females may be 

 taken all the year round, but the males seem to be adult in 

 late October and early November. 



Walckenaera acuminata (Bl.) A northern spider, pretty 

 generally distributed in this district. Found amongst dead 

 leaves, etc. 



Walckenaera nudipalpis (Westr.) Sparingly in boggy spots 

 on Eston and Easby Moors. 



Gonatium rubens (Bl.) A very variable spider, seems 

 equally at home on the highest moors and in the country 

 lanes. 



Gonatium rubellum (Bl.) Not common in Lonsdale. 



Neriene bituberculata (Wid.) Shaken very commonly from 

 tufts of grass, etc., at Eston and in Lonsdale, Redcar.
