38 Rev. F. O. Pickard-Cumbridge on British Spiders. 



1892 ; males and females were also found in the collection of 

 the l\ev. O. Pickard-Cambridge. 



Tetrujjnatha SoJandrii^ Scop. 



Taken abundantly at Morden Park during the summer of 

 1894: specimens were found also in all the collections sub- 

 mitted to me from England, Ireland, and Scotland. 



J'etragnatha nigrita, Lendl. 



This tine species occurred only in the collection of the 

 Rev. O. Pickard-Cambridge. Males and females. 



Tetragnatha obtusa, L. K. 



A few examples of this variable species occurred in ray 

 own collection and that of the Rev. O. Pickard-Cambridge. 



These four species are now recorded for the first time as 

 indigenous to Britain. 



Genus Leptyphantes, Menge. 



Leptypkaates tenebricola^ Wid. 



x\n adult male was found in a tube marked " n. sp. ?," 

 taken at Armathwaite, near Carlisle, which certainly belongs 

 to this species as diagnosed and figured by W. Kulcznski in 

 ' Symb. ad Faunam Arach. Tirolensem,' 1887, p. 320, pi. vii. 

 tisfs. 34, 35. Four or five males were also found in a collec- 

 tion from Scotland. 



Notes on Rare Species, and Remarhs on Synonyms. 

 Pardosa riparia, Clk. 



The examination of numbers of specimens of L. prati- 

 vaga, and the comparison of them with specimens taken to be 

 riparia, C. L. K., has convinced me that we have not this 

 latter species in England, but only the one species prativaga. 



Immense numbers of this species were met with on May 15, 

 1894, along the western shores of Poole Harbour, and many 

 others were taken about the same time in other parts of the 

 country. 



Drassus miitusculus, L. K. 



Drassus delinquenSf Cb. Spid. Dor. p. 21. 



Numerous specimens of both sexes were met with on 

 May 17, 1894, under dry seaweed on the shores of Littlesea, 

 near Studland.
