one female, Mr. C. Warburton, July, 1892. Several males

 England ; also noted at Howth, in Ireland.

 p. 118. One of each sex, Mr. W. Farren, but taken years before 

 being recorded (1869). Both sexes adult and immature from 

 various parts of fen. Not a common spider but widely dis- 

 tributed. 



0. trux Bl. Both sexes, not rare in the fen.

 fen, another in an outhouse in the village. A.R.J. ; a third in

 Farren. One female, A.R.J. A rare British spider, which 

 has occurred in Dorset, Northumberland, Lincolnshire, and 

 Newtown Moss (Penrith). 



Tibelhis maritimus Menge. Both sexes occur reely in the 

 fen. Some years ago Professor Kulczynski expressed an 

 opinion that we had two species in Britain confused under the 

 name of T. oblongus Walck. This was proved to be the case 

 by Dr. Jackson in the ' Lancashire Naturalist for April, 1911, 

 p. 386.' The distribution of the more recently recognised 

 species in this country is still to be worked out.
