Type: Menemerus semi-limbatus (HAHN). 
Of the typical species (= M. vigoratus (C. KocH) Sm.) I have taken 
several specimens at Naples (whence also HAHNS specimen came), at Rome 
and at Nice. As the characteristic feature of the genus Menemerus, which 
distinguishes it from nearly related genera, SIMON states that the pars fe- 
moralis of the male’s palpus is ”inerme et renflée en massue”. But that 
character does not apply to all the species, which, according to my defi- 
nition of the genus, it comprehends, and of the species again, which Simon 
reckons to Menemerus, I refer e. g. M. falsificus SIN. to Marpessa. In ge- 
neral appearance Menemerus closely resembles Marpessa: in cases of doubt 
however Menemerus may be recognized by the distance between the two 
eyes of the 3" series being somewhat less than that between them and the 
margin of the cephalothorax, which is not the case in Marpessa. The claws 
in this genus are quite of the common form, but little sinuated; in the ty- 
pical species I have found the outer claw without teeth both on the 1* pair, 
where the inner claw has about 10, and on the 4" pair, where it has about 
15 fine teeth.
