On EUROPEAN SPIDERS. 37 
names). As regards the greater number of Simon’s "coupes génériques", 
which will thus become nameless, I have not been able to persuade myself 
that they are suffieiently founded in nature to deserve, at least for the 
present, to be preserved: the case seems however to be otherwise with 
the following genera, for which I accordingly consider that new names 
ought to be formed: 
Instead of Artamus C. KocH we propose Artanes (Aorévns, proper name); 
5 Cyrtocephalus Luc. 5 Cyrtauchenius (xvoróc, arched, bent; 
avynv, neck); 
" Dia €. Kocu id ZElurops (wihovgos, cat; dw, face); 
o Diana C. KocH » Diea (Autos, prop. name); 
i. Lachesis SAV. et AUD. ,, Laches (Adyns, prop. name, masc.); 
5 Monastes Luc. » Moneses (Moveions, prop. name); 
» Philia C. Kocx 5 Phileus (diieios, prop. name); 
4 Phrynoides SIM. E Phrynarachne (yovvn, toad; docyvq, 
spider); 
s Rhanis C. KocH E: Rhene (Pi, prop. name, fem.) ?). 
(Parthenia Ros.-Desv. [Dipt.] 1830; — Philia C. Koch 1846 (Philia ScuibprE [He- 
mipt. 1842); — Phebe C. Koch 1850 (Phebe Serv. [Coleopt.] 1835); — Phrynoides 
Sim. 1864 (Phrynoidis Fitz. [Rept.] 1843); — Potamia C. Kocu 1848 (Potamia Ros.- 
Dzsv. [Dipt.] 1830); — Pyrophorus C. Koch 1837 (Pyrophorus Inuie. [Coleopt.] 
1809); — Rhanis €. Kocu 1848 (Rhanis Des. [Coleopt.] 1834); — Sphodros WALCK. 
1837 (Sphodrus CLairv. [Coleopt.] 1806); — Trivia C. Kocx 1850 (Trivia GRAY 
[Moll] 1832). — Such of the above notices as do not refer to spiders, are for the 
most part taken from Agassiz’ Nomenclator Zoologicus. 
1) Clotho WALCK. ought to be replaced with Uroctea Dur.; Eurysoma C. KOCH 
with Eurycorma THOR. and Cerostris THOR. (Eugenie’s Resa, Arachn. 1, p. 3, 4); 
Janus C. KocH with Synemosyna (Hentz); Macaria C. KocH with Micaria WESTR.; 
Mygale WALCK. with e. g. Theraphosa WALCK.; Pyrophorus C. Kocx with Gees 
(LATR.) SUND. 
2) Instead of some generic names already d sinh appropriated, not, it is true, 
adopted by SIMON, but applied by other arachnologists, and which appear to me to 
indieate good and well characterized genera, I avail myself of this opportunity to 
propose the following appellations: 
For Ariadne DOLESCH. (1857) I propose Ariamnes ( Agwéuvme, prop. name, masc.); 
Cerceis MENGE (1866) Cercidia (x&oxíc; shuttle); 
„ Cyphagogus GÜNTH. (1862) 5 Cyphonethis (xvgóc, curved, v59íc, female 
spinner); 
Galena ©. Kocx (1845) Gelanor (l'eAívoo, prop. name myth.); 
Latona L. Kocx (1866) Lampona (Adurwv, prop. name); 
» Pasithea BLackw. (1858) ^ Peucetia (Ievxéruos, prop. name myth.); 
» Triclaria C. Kocx (1848) Z Trechalea (tonxadéos, rough, savage).
