catoria and LL. piratica, but is much larger, and easily distinguished by the conspicuous 
broad white margins of the cephalothorax and the white sides of the abdomen. 
LycosA MONTICOLA. 
Araneus monticolus, Clerck, Svenska Spindlar, p. 91, pl. 4. tab. 5. fig. 1. 
Lycosa monticola, Westr. Ar. Suecicæ, p. 487; Thorell, Rec. Crit. p. 50. 
Adults and immature examples of both sexes of this spider were captured by myself in 
1859, at Southport, Lancashire, and more recently near Ben Nevis, in Scotland, and (but 
very rarely) at Bloxworth, Dorsetshire. It is not easy to distinguish it from Zycosa 
exigua (Bl.), except by the structure of the palpal organs; there are, however, differences 
in colour and markings, which become very tangible after the examination of numerous 
specimens. 
LYCOSA MINIATA. 
Lycosa miniata, Koch, Die Arachn. Band xiv. p. 196, pl. 503. figs. 1406, 1407, 1408. 
Lycosa nivalis, Camb. Zoologist, 1860, p. 6895. 
Abundant on the sand hills at Southport, Lancashire, where it was first found by 
myself in 1859; lately I have received it from the immediate neighbourhood of Liver- 
pool, from the Rev. H. H. Higgins. Although nearly allied to L. nivalis (Koch), it is 
quite a distinct species. 
LYCOSA BARBIPES.

An adult male was captured by myself on the Hursley Downs, near Winchester, in 
June 1860. It is easily distinguished from all other species known to me, by the gouty 
tibial joints of the first pair of legs in the adult male. It appears to be a widely dispersed 
European species, but, so far as I am aware, nowhere common ; I have received it from 
Central Germany, and have captured it at Baveno, on the Lago Maggiore, in Italy. 
LYCOSA FABRILIS. 
Lycosa fabrilis, Koch, Die Arachn. Band xiv. p. 168, pl. 498. figs. 1389-1392; Walck. Ins. Apt.

An adult male of this fine spider was captured by myself on Bloxworth Heath, in 
October 1868. It may be at once distinguished from all other recorded British Lycose 
by the velvety black underside of the abdomen; in other respects it much resembles 2. 
andrenivora (Bl.), and it frequents similar situations, but is much larger, and more con- 
spieuously and distinctly marked.
