ANYPH^NID^E 



The spiders of this family resemble those of the Clubionida in most respects, except that 

 the tracheal stigmatic openings beneath the abdomen are situated about midway between the 

 genital rima and the spinners, and not, as in the last family, immediately in front of the 

 spinners. One species only is indigenous to Great Britain and is very common amongst the 

 foliage of trees in May and June.
