belong to that still existing, exotie genus. MENGE creates for them — with 
the exception of one species, which he assigns to Æuophrys C. Kocn 
(Attus (WALCK.) NOB.) — a new genus: 
Gorgopis MENGE 18541). This genus, which is said to be nearly 
related to Euophrys C. KocH (Attus NOB.), appears to be characterized prin- 
cipally by having the small eyes of the 2™ series placed at a very short 
distance behind the anterior lateral eyes; they are also somewhat less distant 
from each other than are the two eyes of the 3" row. The fourth pair of 
legs is longer than the others. — Type: G. frenata (K. et B.). — Conf. 
KocH and BER., p. 93). 
Propetes MENGE 1854?) Of this genus MENGE only says that it 
differs from the genera, into which KocH has resolved WALCKENAER'S Attus, 
by having the eyes of the 2" row but slightly smaller than those of the 
3" row, and larger than in now living species. — Type: P. felinus MENGE. 
Vid. KocH and BER., p. 93. 
One species of KocH's exstinet Phidippi, is, as we have already said, 
by MENGE referred to Attus, or Euophrys MENGE; in Lebenszeich. (p. 9) that 
name is however not mentioned, but instead of it: ” Salticus 1 sp." 
Lastly I ought to cite the genus: 
Mastigusa MENGE 1854 °), whose affinities are entirely unknown: 
of the only mentioned species, JM. acuminata MENGE, it is stated that the 
male has on its palpi "flagella which are curved backwards in form of a 
ram's horn (widderhorn-ähnlich nach hinten gebogenen Geisseln) and are al- 
most as long as the body.” Vid. KocH and BER., p. 94. 
Three more genera Onca, Epeiridion and Ocia are mentioned by 
MENGE (KOCH and BER., p. 8 and 24; Lebenszeichn., p. 8), but they are 
not at all characterized. The two former are said to belong to the .Epei- 
roide, the last named is taken up among the 7Aomisoide. 
I beg here to express my grateful acknowledgement to those Arach- 
nologists who, since the printing of this treatise was commenced, have as- 
sisted me by the communication of valuable information or specimens of 
interesting species. In addition to the gentlemen named in pp. 2 and 3, 
1) yooyanıs, fierce-looking. 
2) moometyc, rash, hasty. 
3) uaoreyow, whip, scourge.
