ON NEW AND RARE BRITISH ARACHNIDA. 113 



Agroeea diversa, sp.n. Figs. 1, 2, 3. 



Two adult females of an Agroeea, closely allied to 

 A. gracilipes, Blackw., were found by A. E. LI. P.-C. 

 on Bloxworth Heath at the end of the summer of 1912. 

 In size, general structure, and character these are very 

 like A, gracilipes, but the striking dissimilarity in colour 

 and markings, as well as some small structural differences, 

 lead me to believe them to be of a different species.

An adult male of this interesting species was taken on 

 the lawn railings at Bloxworth Rectory on the 5th of 

 July, 1912, by the Rev. R. J. Pickard-Cambridge ; and 

 I found one of the same sex among some hitherto over- 

 looked spiders taken many years ago by myself at 

 Bloxworth.

A female adult was taken among herbage in Bere Wood 

 by A. E. LI. P.-C. on the 17th of October, 1912. This is 

 the first instance known to me of the occurrence of this 

 species in any other situation than in old buildings and 

 unused rooms.
