Clubiona trivialis, L. Koch. 
Local,—being partial to heathery moors; but fairly 
common where it occurs. Both sexes are to be met with 
in the adult state during summer, when the female con- 
structs a small silken cell among twigs of heather, in which 
she deposits her eggs and takes up her abode.

imm. 2; Moor near West Wemyss Station, Fife, Aug., ad. gs and 9s 
common, a number of the latter in their silken cells; Bavelaw Moss, and 
Pentlands near Allermuir burn, Sept., 2s, several imm.; Pentlands above 
Boghall, Oct., two ad.?s. Taken by Mr Cambridge on the Pentlands in

Clubiona diversa, Cb. 
Clubiona pallens, Cambr. Spid. Dorset. 
Widely distributed, occurring in many localities about the 
roots of grass, moss, etc., but always in very limited numbers. 
Both sexes occur in the adult state in autumn as well as in 
spring. Mr Cambridge (who has seen some of our speci- 
mens) regards this as one of the rarer British species. It 
has already been recorded, however, from a few Scottish 
localities. 
Near Kirknewton, March, two 9s, one young; Loganlee (Pentlands), end 
of March, one ¢; Leadburn, March, two ad. gs and several 98; West 
Wemyss Moor, Aug., ad. 6; Luffness, Sept., ad. 6; Gosford, Sept., ad. g ; 
Luffness Links, Oct., ¢ and two 9s; Pentlands, near Boghall, Oct., two gs 
and three Qs, others imm.; roadside, south of Dalmahoy Hill, Nov., one ? 
imm.; Ochils above Bridge of Allan, at roots of heather, Dec., ad. g and 
two @s. 
Clubiona subtilis, L. Koch. 
Clubiona pallens, Bl. Spid. Great Brit. and Irel. 
Apparently a rare species here, a single example—an adult 
female—taken near Temple, on 27th July 1893, being the 
only one as yet detected. This is. its first record for 
Scotland.
