108 T. THORELL, 
from which he took his information, and in any work of WALCKENAER pub- 
lished previous to 1837, I have not found "Zodarion" mentioned. As far 
as I am aware, WALCKENAER speaks for the first time of any spider of 
this genus in his Hist. Nat. d. Ins. Apt., Vol. I; and he seems not to have 
considered his ” Zodarions” or ” Zodarionides” as forming a distinct genus 
till in 1847. (Conf. Syn.). 
I have at Nizza met with a female specimen of a Zodariwm, which 
seems to be identical with Ænyo greca C. Kocu. Perhaps it is also the 
same as Æ. longipes SAV. et AUD., and as E. occitanica DuGES; but if such 
be the case, the species must vary considerably in colour. 
In Z. grecum the free claw-joint is large and easily seen, much as 
in Scytodes; the superior tarsal claws are weak, strongly curved, saw-toothed, 
with about 6 large teeth proceeding from the outer side of the claw; the 
inferior claw is very small, without teeth. The female’s palpal claw is 
strongly and uniformly curved, and from the base nearly to the tip armed 
with about 10 straight, parallel, vertical comb-teeth, the points of which 
are situated in a slightly curved, nearly straight line: the teeth are accord- 
ingly longest in the middle of the claw and shorter towards its extremity and 
base. They are not inserted in the middle line of the claw, but on one side. 
The claw is surrounded by numerous hairy, pointed bristles.

Type: Enyo nitida Sav. et AUD. 
I have seen no species of this genus. Ænyo germanica C. KocH 
(which is supposed by WALCKENAER to be the same as E. nitida Sav. et 
AUD.), and Æ, italica CANESTR. are the only European species of the genus 
as yet known. 
E. amaranthina Luc., which Lucas only provisionally united with 
Finyo *), and for which WALCKENAER formed the family "les Incertaines” 
of his genus Clotho ?, appears to differ in highly important features both 
from Zodarium and Enyo, and ought in my opinion to be made the type 
of a separate genus.
