by innumerable cream-coloured spots, which towards the base are 
arranged in parallel longitudinal rows, about seven in primaries, and 
six to seven in secondaries ; body greenish black; the head, collar, 
pterygodes, and thorax spotted with silvery white; abdomen spotted 
with white at the base and sides; palpi and pectus spotted with 
white, basal segments of venter margined with white, anal segments 
covered by a wax-like testaceous plate; expanse of wings 3 inches 
5 lines. 
Darjeeling (Sadler). Type, B.M. 
Easily distinguished from C. maculata by its greater size, the 
more purplish colour of the wings, and the absence of the ochreous 
colouring on abdominal area of secondaries. I have named it after 
the author of the genus. 
Family Liparip&. 
Genus Dreara. 
DREATA TRISERIATA, 0. Sp. 
3. Nearly allied to D. subcurvifera, but larger, altogether yel- 
lower in colour, and with scarcely a trace of the two submarginal 
rows of black spots in secondaries. 
Above, head and thorax densely hairy, bright straw-coloured ; 
antennze brown ; primaries straw-coloured, with a subcostal, a bent 
central, and an arched submarginal series of larger black spots, the 
last two series meeting near the apex; abdomen and secondaries 
golden testaceous, the latter with two indistinct disco-submarginal 
parallel squamose blackish lines: body and wings below sordid ochra- 
ceous ; sides of pectus and fringe of wings bright stramineous; ex- 
anse of wings 2 inches 6 to 9 lines. 
Pulni Hills, S. India 8000 feet (4. F. Sealy). Five examples, B.M. 
Mr. Sealy informs me that this species is not at all rare, and is 
easily captured, as it flies into the house; all the examples taken by 
him are males, The allied species, D. subcurvifera, Walker, is an 
inhabitant of Ceylon.

Since the publication of descriptions of new species of Erigone from 
North America (P. Z.S. 1874, p. 428, pl. lv.), Mr. J. H. Emerton 
has kindly sent me another small collection, containing nine addi- 
tional species ; one only of these (Z. viaria, Bl.) is identical with 
any known European form, though several of the others are very 
closely allied to species found in England and France. One of the 
chief points of interest attaching to the present collection is in regard 
to two of the species (2. ornata and £, pictilis): in these an un-
