TETRAGNATHA NITENS Aud. (N.I.) 

 TETRAGNATHA (?) PANOPEA L. Koch (L.II.I.) 

 A number of specimens in various stages ()f de\eliipment were collected, 

 and they agree fairly well with Koch's description and figures. The species 

 is evidently somewhat variable. 



TETRAGNATHA CYLINDRICA Walck. (L.11.1.) 



TETRAGNATHA DEMISSA L.Koch. (L.H.I.) 



TETRAGNATHA MACILENTA L. Koch. (N.I.) 



META INSULARIS Keys. (L.H.I.) 



Several specimens of this species were olitained from the summit of 



Mount Gower. It diiTers slightly from Koch's description and figures, but I 



think there can be little doubt as to its identity.

NEPHILA VICTORIALIS L. Koch. (L.ll.I.)
