ON NEW AND RARE 14RITISH ARACHNIDA. 1 83 



Family SALTICID^. 



Epiblemum affinitatum, Cambr., PL A, Figs. 37-39. 



An adult male and female, received from Dr. A. R. 

 Jackson, were found under old bark on trees in Richmond 

 Park in 1907 by jMr. Bennett. This species is very closely 

 allied to E. mutahile, Lucas-Simon, and its type specimen 

 has been doubtfully referred to that species by Mons. Simon. 

 I still, however, believe them to be distinct. Professor 

 Kulczynski, who has examined the Richmond Park examples, 

 thinks that it is Epiblemum (CaUkthcra) zehraneiim, C. L. 

 Koch. A comparison, however, with typical specimens 

 of E. zebranctim kindly sent to me by Dr. L. Koch, shows it 

 to be quite distinct. The Richmond Park examples are only 

 the second recorded occurrence of E. affiniia/uni, Cambr,, 

 the first specimen having been found by myself on Bloxworth 

 Heath in i860. 



Hyctia Nivoyi, Lucas. 



Adults of both sexes, found apparently in some abundance 

 on the Rye Camber sandhills by Mr. \V. R. Butterfield in 

 May, 1907, and an adult male by Mr. H. Donisthorpe at 

 Deal, September, 1907.
