Lophomma herbigradum (Bl.). 



Neriene herhigracla, Bl. Spid. Gt. Brit, and Irel., and Cambr, Spid. Dors. 

 An adult $ of L. herbigradum was taken at Bavelaw 

 Moss, near Balerno, on 16th May 1900. We are indebted 

 to Mr Cambridge for its identification. This appears to be 

 the first record for Scotland. 



Diplocephalus picinus (BL). 



Walckenaera picina, Bl. Spid. Gt. Brit, and Irel., and Cambr. Spid. Dors. 



On 22nd October 1901, an ad. ^ and two $ s of this 

 very small spider were found among withered leaves at the 

 edge of a wood near Gifford, East Lothian. The late Morris 

 Young took this species near Paisley many years ago — the 

 only previous Scottish record we know of. 



Pocadicnemis pumila (BL). 



Walckenaera pumila, Bl. Spid. Gt. Brit, and Irel., and Cambr. Spid. Dors. 



This has been taken on two occasions, namely, — near 

 Gorebridge, 8th May 1900, two ad. $ s and one $ among 

 grass on a sunny bank; and on Bavelaw Moss, 16th May 

 1900, an ad. $ obtained by sweeping heather. Has been 

 recorded from Berwickshire and Renfrewshire. 



Cnephalocotes obscurus (BL). 



Walckenaera obtusa, BL Spid. Gt. Brit, and Irel., and Cambr. Spid. Dors. 



An ad. $ of this rare species was got under a board at 

 Fairmilehead, near Edinburgh, on 2nd March 1900. It 

 has been recorded from near Paisley by the late Morris 

 Young (Ann. Scot. Nat. Hist., 1894, p. 185). 



Tapinocyba pallens (Cb.). 



Erigone pallens, Cambr. Proc. ZooL Soc. Lond., 1872, p. 753. 

 Two ad. ^s of this interesting form were found under 

 moss at the foot of a fir tree in Roslin Glen, Midlothian, 

 on 22nd December 1900: identification confirmed by Mr 

 Cambridge. The species was first taken in the British 

 Isles by Evans, near Lanark, in December 1899 and October 

 1900, and it has recently been found in Lancashire
