IO2 ON BRITISH ARACHNIDA. 



Fam. DICTYNID,E. 



Dietyna variabilis, C. L. Koch. 



An adult female sent to me from the Isle of Wight in 

 July, 1908, by Mr. Edward Saunders, F.R.S. ; a very 

 distinct little spider, and, especially the female, quite 

 unmistakable. The abdomen yellowish white with a large 

 central pink spot on the upper side. It would probably be 

 found much more frequently along our South and South- 

 western Sea Coast, if worked for. 



Protadia subnigra, Cambr. 



An adult female from Spurnpoint, on the Eastern Coast, 

 sent to me by Mr. T. Stainforth. 



Fam. AGELENID^E. 



Coelotes atropos, Walck. 



An adult female, Isle of Man, W. Falconer, September, 

 1908. 



Coelotes teprestris, Wider. 



An adult female taken near Scarborough, from Mr. T. 

 Stainforth, in 1908. 



Fam. THERIDIID^E. 



Theridiosoma argenteolum, Cambr. 



This curious little spider has been met with during the 

 past year (June, 1908), by Dr. A. R. Jackson, in the New 

 Forest (in the same spot where I found it rather abundantly 

 some years ago), along with its snare ; this is of an 

 imperfect orbicular form, shewing its near relationship to 

 the Epeiridse. 



Robertus negleetus, Cambr. 



An adult male received from Mr. T. Stainforth, found in 

 Yorkshire, in May, 1908.
