Spiders collected in Neighbourhood of Edinburgh. 
Clubiona grisea, L. Koch. 
Clubiona holosericea, Bl. Spid. Great Brit. and Irel. 
Apparently local, but seemingly plentiful where it does 
occur. Adults in autumn. In the south of England and in 
France, according to Mr Cambridge and M. Simon, this 
species pairs about May. 
Luffness Links, about the marshes and ditches, Sept. and Oct. 1893, ad. 
és and @s equally common, especially among iris, where dozens might 
have been captured in a few minutes. Identification verified by Mr 
Cambridge. The only other record for Scotland was furnished by Dr Hardy, 
from Berwickshire. 
Clubiona terrestris, Westr. 
Clubiona amarantha, Bl. Spid. Great Brit, and Irel. 
Generally distributed, and (especially females) very common 
among rough herbage, underwood, etc. Pairs towards close 
of spring and in early part of summer, when, and until the 
foliage drops in autumn, great numbers may be found on 
beech hedges, bramble thickets, etc., concealed in folded 
leaves. °

Clubiona reclusa, Cambr. 
Widely distributed, but not so common as the last, to 
which it is closely related both in habits and appearance.

pairing takes place here in summer, as M. Simon has 
observed in France.
