324 REV. O. P. CAMBRIDGE ON [Apr. 20, 
the genus Walckenaéra, Blackwall, those now described are of the 
genus Neriene of that author. 
Excepting one species, all, both in the present and former papers, 
were sent to me by M. Eugéne Simon, and were accompanied by 
examples of numerous other known species. A list of these latter (45 
in number) with the localities in which they were foundis added at the 
end of this paper. The whole number of species of this interesting 
group thus received from M. Simon amounts to seventy-nine, the 
greater part of them having been found in France. 
ERIGONE PABULATRIX, sp. n. (Plate XLIV. fig. 1.) 
Adult male, length nearly 2 lines. 
The whole of the fore part of this Spider (except the labium and 
sternum, which are suffused with brown) is of a clear yellow slightly 
tinged with orange; the cephalothorax is of ordinary form; the 
caput is not raised above the thoracic level, the whole profile form- 
ing a nearly uniform gentle curve; the normal grooves and 
indentations are slightly marked ; the clypeus is very nearly vertical, 
and its height exceeds (but not greatly) half that of the facial space. 
The eyes are in the usual position; those of the hinder row are 
equidistant, or very nearly so, from each other; those of the fore 
central pair are very minute, placed on a blackish spot, and not con- 
tiguous to each other, being divided by nearly a diameter’s distance, 
and each of them is separated from the fore lateral eye onits side by 
an interval equal to a diameter of the latter, and from the hind cen- 
tral nearest to it by a smaller interval, more nearly equal to that 
which separates those of the hinder row; those of each lateral pair 
are seated obliquely on a strong tubercle and are contiguous to each 
other. In one example of the male there was no tubercle on the 
right side, and the eyes of the lateral pair there were very minute, 
evidently in a semiaborted state; looked at from the front, the con- 
vexity of both rows is directed backwards, that of the hinder row the 
most strongly. 
The legs are not very long, but tolerably strong, and tapering in 
form, their relative length being 4, 1, 2,3. They are furnished 
with hairs, a very few slender spines, and some short, erect, fine 
bristles. 
The palpi are short and slender (except the digital joint): the cubi- 
tal and radial joints are very short; the latter is the strongest and has 
its fore extremity slightly produced into an obtuse point ; a straight, 
strong, prominent, tapering, spine-like bristle, rather exceeding in 
length the joint itself, issues from the fore extremity of the upper- 
side of the cubital joint, and another longer, but less strong, and 
curved, springs from near the fore extremity of the radial joint, which 
has also a series of finer bristles round the inner margin ; the digital 
joint is large and of an irregular oval form, the outer margin having a 
strong, nearly circular, prominent lobe near the middle, and its hinder 
extremity being prominent ina blunt angular form: the palpal organs 
are directed outwards, very prominent and complex, with various 
corneous spines and processes; among these is a large, strongly curved,
