312 Falconer : The Spiders of Wicken, Cambridge.

 A scarce spider but widely distributed. 



C. holoscricea Degeer. Both sexes common.

C. suhtilis L. Koch. Trans. Linn. Soc, Vol. XXVII.,. 

 p. 414, taken in the fen in great numbers by Mr. W. Farren, 

 in 1869. It occurred also plentifully at the time of our visit. 

 A sou hern species but on record also for Spurn Point, York- 

 shire and near Edinburgh. 



C. comta C. L. Koch. One female, the Drive, W.F. 

 Zora letijera. sp. nov. figs, i, 2, 3, 4. While collecting in 

 the fen adult and immature examples of both sexes of a lighter 

 coloured and less strongly marked Zora than usual came 

 under my notice. On submitting them to microscopical exami- 

 nation, they were found to differ in several specific details 

 from other members of the genus. I concluded therefore 

 they were of a new species. Other examples were subsequently 

 taken by Dr. Jackson who formed the same opinion and for- 

 warded specimens to the Rev. O. Pickard Cambridge, who 

 concurs in the view taken of them. I therefore describe and 

 figure it postea page 317 as a sp. nov. under the above name.

 entrance to th j Drove and along the Drive.
