the terminal process as usual divided into two branches, the outer 
straight and opaque, the inner thin and transparent and turned 
across the tarsus. 
Ipswich, Mass., June 6, 1903. 
Pirata maculatus, new. (Plate VI, figures 10, 10a, 10b.) 
6 mm. long, the same size and much like P. montanus. The 
markings are the same as in montanus, but the dark portions are 
much darker, and the rings on the legs more distinct than in any 
other species. The dark markings of the under side are also more 
prominent than usual; there is a distinct light middle stripe on the 
sternum, and a light area in the middle of the abdomen, bordered 
at the sides with black and partly divided by a middle dark stripe, 
narrow in front and widened behind. The hinder part of the epigynum 
is divided into two lobes, slightly pointed in the middle, and showing 
no opening on the outer side. 
Moosehead Lake, Me., Aug. 7. Females with eggs. 
Pirata sylvestris, new. (Plate VI, figures 8 to 8c.) 
Female 8 mm. long; male 5mm. long. In the female the usual 
three light marks behind the eyes are very narrow, but the light 
marks at the sides are wide and extend to the edge of the cephalo- 
thorax. In the male the edges of the cephalothorax are dark and 
the lateral light markings narrow. The abdomen has the usual gray 
color with a light middle stripe in the anterior half, and four pairs 
of bright white spots covered with white hairs and indistinct white 
lines on the sides and along the sides of the middle stripe. The 
sternum is pale without stripes. The under side of the abdomen is 
in some individuals pale, while in others there are traces of three 
dark stripes. The legs are pale without rings. The epigynum has 
the usual two lobes behind bluntly pointed on the inner corners 
where they are partly covered by a middle bunch of fine white 
hairs. In some light colored females the spermathecz show through 
the skin near the outer corners of the lobes. 
The tarsus of the male palpus is slender. The palpal organ has 
the usual two small appendages in the middle, one slender and the 
other a short and stout tooth. The terminal process is long and 
curved in quarter of a circle, with the transparent inner branch 
showing beyond the outer which is thicker and darker.
