Genera of the Famihj Attidw. 263 



nomenclature of some of C. Koch's genera which have al- 

 ready been mentioned. 



In 1871, the genus Hasarius was formed by Simon. In 

 1872, Taczanowski described a new genus, Jelskia, which he 

 placed under the family Dinopidae, but which seems to us 

 to belong to the Attidae, since although the eyes are in four 

 rows, (as in Lyssomanes Hentz), the eyes of the third row, 

 are small, not as in the Dinopidae, larger than the others . 

 In 1873 Simon substituted the name Icius for Icelus C. 

 Koch. 



In 1876, Simon modified his classification of the Attid 

 genera, and succeeded in making an arrangement so good 

 that as Dr. L. Koch remarks, it will form the basis for all 

 future work. The new genera which he formed in this year 

 were Synagles, ISTeera, Neon, Hyctia, Thya, Saitis, Pellenes, 

 Habrocestum, Cyrba and Phlegra. 



In 1877, Thorell made the genera Agorius and Viciria, and 

 substituted the name Marptusa for Marpissa C. Koch. In 

 the same year Simon formed the genus Bavia, and Simon 

 and Cambridge each described a genus having the eyes in 

 four rows; these are Evenus Simon, and Athamas Cam- 

 bridge. Also in 1877, the genera Oedipus and Scartes were 

 formed by Menge. 



In 1878, Thorell formed the genera Boethus and Sinis; 

 Karsch, the genera Lycidas, Ligonipes, Ligurinus, Maratus, 

 Ascyltus and Mopsus; and Taczanowski, the genus Chiro- 

 thecia. 



In 1879, L. Koch formed the genera Astia, Scirtetes. 

 Rhombonotus, Scaea, and Lagnus, andin 1880, Opisthoncus, 

 In 1880, also, we have the genus Janigena Karsch. In 

 1881, Keyserling formed Jotus, and Ergane, and Thorell,. 

 Simaetha, Discocnemius, Ephippus, Euryattus, Omoedus and 

 Coccorchestes. 



In 1882, Keyserling formed Thorellia (which afterwards- 

 proved to be identical with Saitis Simon), Eulabes, Tanypus,. 

 Acmaea (these three names being preoccupied they were 

 afterward supplanted, Eulabes by Pirithous, Tanypus by 

 Sinnamora, and Acmaea by Drepanephora); Morgaromma, 

 Erasmia, Sobara, Selaophora, Prostlieclina, Cytaea, Atry-
