Spiders collected in Neighbourhood of Edinburgh. 311 
Drassus cupreus, BI. 
Drassus lupidicolens, Cambr. Spid. Dorset (in part), non Blackwall, 
Spid. Great Brit. and Irel. 
Drassus lapidosus, Carpenter and Evans, List Spid, Edin., p. 538. 
The common Drassus of the district, which stands in our 
list under the older of Walckenaér’s names—/apidosus—is, 
it would now seem, referable to the form to which Blackwall 
gave the name of D. cupreus. At any rate, a number of 
specimens (including adult males and females taken on 
Blackford Hill in May 1895) sent to the Rev. O. P. 
Cambridge since the publication of our list in 1894 have 
all been referred by him to this form; and he tells us he 
has only recently come to discriminate between it and the 
true D. lapidicolens (= lapidosus) of Walckenaér, and that he 
much doubts if he has yet seen the latter from Scotland. 
Leptyphantes terricola (C. L. Koch). 
Linyphia alacris, Bl. Spid. Great Brit. and Irel.; Cambr. Spid. Dorset, 
Leptyphantes alacris, C. and E. List Spid. Edin., p. 555, 
The Messrs Cambridge have come to the conclusion that 
Blackwall’s ZL. alacris is identical with C. L. Koch’s Z. 
terricola, which, being the older name, has therefore priority 
over the other. 
Leptyphantes blackwallii, Kulez. 
Linyphia terricola, Bl. Spid. Great Brit. and Irel.; Z. zebrina, Cambr, 
Spid. Dorset, but apparently not of Menge; Leptyphantes 
zebrinus, C. and E, List Spid. Edin., p. 556, 
Blackwall’s Z. terricola, being a different spider from that 
to which C. L. Koch had previously given that name, and 
being also different, it would seem, from Menge’s ZL, zebrina, 
has had to be renamed. This has been done by Professor 
Kulezynski, who has recently (“ Araneze Hungarie,” tom. ii., 
pars 1, p. 70, 1894) named it Leptyphantes blackwallii, 
which has therefore to be substituted for Z. zebrinus in 
our list.
