Oligolophus morio (Fabr.) 
This is one of our commonest and most generally dis- 
tributed Phalangids, occurring abundantly among all sorts of 
rough herbage, as well as on furze and other bushes, both in 
woods and in the open. It seems to be most active after 
nightfall; and when “sugaring” for moths about the end of 
summer, we seldom miss seeing numbers crawling on the 
palings and tree-trunks. The var. alpinus (Herbst.) is prob- 
ably common in the outlying hill-districts. 
This is a northern and alpine species on the Continent, 
and is widely distributed in the British Isles.

During April and May we find many very young Phalangids, of which a 
large proportion probably belong to this species, under stonés and about the 
roots of herbage. 
Oligolophus agrestis (Meade). 
Generally distributed and very common throughout the 
second half of the year. During summer and early autumn 
ereat numbers may be obtained by beating the lower 
branches of trees, particularly conifers. Another favourite 
habitat—more especially about the end of autumn—is 
behind grass or other herbage at the base of a wall. Never
