INTRODUCTION. XI 



describes those considered as new ; the following 13 species had 

 not before been observed in Burma, and 7 (or 8) among them (hero 

 marked with a !) were, I think, new to science : — 



Ocyale atalanta, Sav. 

 Heteropoda languida, Sim. ! 



„ ferina, Sim. ! 



Palystes kochii, Sim. 

 Thelcticopis canescens, Sim. ! 

 Gasteracantha frontata, Black w. 

 Ccerostris paradoxa (Dol.). 

 Epeira masonii, Sim. ! 



„ paviei, Sim. ! 

 Meta (Callinethis) fastigata, Sim. 

 Leptoctenus (Ctenus) tumidulus, Sim. ! 

 Atmetochilus fossor. Sim. ! 

 Cyriopagopus paganus, Sim. ! 



[Epeira paviei, Sim., is, however, perhaps a variety of E. puncti- 

 gera, Dol. ; Epeira submucronata, Sim., is certainly only a variety 

 of E. de haanii. Dol. ; Actinacantha propinqua (Cambr.), Sim., is 

 a variety of Plectana hasseltii (C. L. Koch) ; and Gasteracantha 

 annamita, Sim. = (7. leucomelcena (Dol.), Thor.] 



Cambridge, 0. P., in a paper On some new Species and a new Genus 

 ofAraneidea (Proceed. Zool. Soc. London, 1882), describes and figures, 

 under the name of Idiops colletti, Cambr., a species from Upper 

 Burma which does not seem to differ from Acanthodon crassus (Sim.). 



G. W. and E. G. Peckham, Ant-like Spiders of the Family 

 AttidcB (Occasional Papers of the Nat. Hist. Soc. of Wisconsin, ii., 

 1892). In this memoir two species from " Burmah " are described 

 and figured, viz. : 



Salticus robustus, Peckh., and 

 Salticus nemorensis, Peckh. ; 



both appear to be new, and to belong to the gen. Ascalus, Thor.
