226 T. THEORELL, 
and placed higher up than the lateral eyes (vid. KocH et BER., p. 43; Le- 
benszeich., p. 7). — Type: A. punctulata (K. et B.), by KocH described as 
a Mizalia. 
Siga MENGE 18541). Is said to be nearly related to Zilla: ” The 
head is prominent, the posterior central eyes farther apart than the anterior, 
the palpi of the male provided with an involuted (zusammengerollten) fla- 
gellum”. — S. crinita MENGE (KocH and BER., p. 27). 
Androgeus K. et B. 18542). The head is triangularly or conically 
pointed; the eyes are arranged in two longitudinal rows diverging from the 
front backwards, and thus occupy a triangular area, the point of which is 
formed by the anterior central eyes; the hindermost eyes are placed far 
backwards on the back of the cephalothorax, much as in Hyptiotes and 
Poltys, which latter genus also in the form of its head resembles Andro- 
geus. KocH united these three genera in his family Mithraides (Mithracide). 
Androgeus probably belongs to our Uloborine, and assuredly not to the La- 
terigrade, with which MENGE thinks it ought to be classed. — Type: A. 
triqueter K. et B. — Conf. Kocx and BER., p. 27—29; Lebenszeich., p. 9. 
Of still existing genera, Zpeira and Zilla are said to be represented; 
the species of Zilla described in KocH and BER. do not however belong to 
Zila, as we have fixed the limits of that genus, and probably not even to 
the Epeiroidz, but to the Theridioidæ: they are said by MENGE to resemble 
" Meta tigrina” (Linyphia socialis SUND.) in the position of the eyes and in 
the legs (vid. Koch and BER., p. 27). 
b. Theridioidæ. The following genera appear to belong to this 
family: 
Flegia K. et D. 1854 °). Is nearly related to Episinus, according 
to MENGE, but the eyes are placed on a prominent elevation sloping be- 
hind. The cephalothorax is rounded, its pars cephalica small; the abdomen 
ovate, the legs long; the palpi of the male are very long, with a very 
large clava. The posterior central eyes are larger than the anterior. — 
Type: F. longimana K. et B. — Conf. KocH and BER., p. 30. 
Corynitis MENGE 1854 5). Nearly allied with Flegie; it is distin- 
guished "by its larger anterior central eyes, and by the male's still longer 
palpi, the fourth joint of which is slender at the base, incrassated in the
