pigmented, but occasionally, as in a specimen of my own from 

 the New Forest, all eight may be very dark. The epigyne 

 and general structure ot P. airotihiaUs are quite typical of 

 W. vidanocephala.

The type of W. incerta is an immature male of W. cucuUata. 



The tibial apophysis is not really continued transversely 

 across the dorsum of the tarsus, although some long hairs in 

 this ])Osition give sometliing of this ap)<earaiice with poor 

 illumination. This apophysis is quite developed and tyjtical 

 of W. cucullatn. The j)alpal organs are, however, enveloped 

 in membrane. The caput, too, is quite undeveloped, and, as 

 certainly as one can be certain of immature spiders, this is an 

 example of IF. cucuUata.

I can detect no difference between the type of W. icar- 

 lurtoni'i and typical nniles of W.fitfjax.

This is a fine distinct species which I had not seen before. 

 The epigyne is curiously like that of Cornicidaria cuspidata, 

 131., but in other respects the spider is very different.

There is no doubt at all that the type of C. pudenfi, which 

 is a female, is identical with what is supposed to be the 

 female of 11'. capita. Tiiis female ha.s, however, never been
