Crustulina sticta, Camb. 



I met with an adult female of this very local spider, 

 running on the lawn railings at Bloxworth Rectory in ]\ray 

 1907. An unusual spot for this species. Eleven examples 

 (males immature, females adult) were sent to me from 

 Rye harbour by INIr. W. R. Butterfield, in [March, 1907. All 

 these examples were of the black A-ariety ; as also was an 

 adult female taken at Hastings by Mr. Bennett, and sent to 

 me by Dr. Jackson, in October, 1907. 



Laseola jucunda, Cambr. 



Adults of both sexes were sent to me from near 

 Pennsylvania, Portland, where they were found under 

 stones and pieces of rock, by Dr, A. R. Jackson, in June, 

 1907. 



Laseola inornata, Cambr. 



Laseola d/'ssm/7/s, Cambr. (female, non male.) 

 Both sexes found abundantly near Pennsylvania, Portland, 



by Dr. Jackson, in company with L. jucunda. 



The female of inornata had hitherto been confused with 



that of Z. dissimilis, as well as with that of L. jucunda,
