spiders and Opiliones.] SUBANTARCTIC ISLANDS OP NEW ZEALAND. 167 



Three females were collected by Mr. G. R. Marriner, after whom I have named 

 it, from under stones on the sea-shore, at Monument Harbour, Campbell Island. 



This species, while nearly allied to the genera Cyhoeus, Cyboeolus, and Cedicus, 

 of E. Simon, differs from Cyhoeus in having 5 equally large teeth and 1 small on 

 the outer margin of the falx-sheath, instead of 1 large between 2 smaller ; and in 

 having the legs scarcely bespined at all, instead of strongly bespined ; also in its 

 distinctly 2-iointed instead of 1 -jointed spinnerets. 



It resembles Cedicus in the largely dentated inner margin to its falx-sheath ; 

 in its colulus ; its front median eyes, much nearer one another than to the laterals ; 

 and in its spinnerets : but differs in its shorter lip, wider clypeus, and straight or 

 recurved front row of eyes instead of procurved. 



It resembles Cyboeolus in the smooth metatarsi of its front 2 pairs of legs ; in 

 its rear median eyes, nearer to one another than to the laterals : but differs in its 

 unequally-sized front row of eyes, its convex mandibles, and broad-topped lip, as 

 well as where Cyboeolus agrees with Cyboeus as above noted. 



A single smaller but adult female from Enderby Island (Auckland Islands) 

 is clearly the same as the above-described from Campbell Islands, the only difference 

 being that the legs are shorter in proportion to the cephalothorax and abdomen, 

 and colouring rather darker. 



The measurements (in millimetres) are as follows : Cephalothorax, 2j mm. 

 long, 2 mm. broad (1| mm. in front) ; abdomen, 4 mm. long, 3 mm. broad ; 

 mandibles, 1^ mm. long.

Rubrius nummosus, nov. sp. (Plate VIII, figs. 2a-2d.) 



CefJudothorax bright red-brown, darker at the sides of the cephalic part and the 

 eye-space. Mandibles dark red-brown, with yellow muscle-spots at base. Fangs 

 black-brown at base, red-brown at lower half. Lip, maxillae, sternum, legs, and 

 palpi slightly darker than the cephalothorax. 



The abdomen is rather bright yellow-brown in front and at the sides ; at one- 

 third of the distance from the base is a dark-grey median line, with 4 pairs of wavy
