Araneides of the United States. 451 
Observations. It is difficult to learn much of the habits 
of this spider, which moves chiefly at night. A male anda 
female were found in Alabama in July, in the folds of an old 
' piece of paper, near a silk tube of extreme whiteness, which 
was probably destined to receive the eggs. Always found in 
a tube except at the approach of winter, when it is sometimes 
found wandering. 
Habitat. Common in the United States. 
Tribe IIL. Nympux. External eyes approximated, lip 
emarginate, first pair of legs longest. 
5. CLUBIONA INCLUSA. 
Plate XXII. Fig. 18. 
Description. Livid white, or pale yellow ; cheliceres, last 
joints of all the feet and of the palpi tipped with black ; a 
longitudinal dusky line beginning at base of the abdomen. 
Observations. This spider was always found in tubes of 
white silk, the female watching her cocoon, which is covered 
With a very thin coat of silk ; the eggs are loose and not glued 
together. It probably moves out only at night, as its pale 
Color indicates. The young are deeper in color even than 
the mother. 
Habitat. South Carolina, North Carolina, &c. 
Tribe IV. Fort. External eyes not touching, lip trun- 
x d at tip, fourth pair of legs longest.

Plate XXIII. Fig. 17. | 
Description. Yellowish or rufous; cephalothorax with 
blackish lines; abdomen pale, with two rows of sub-obsolete 
dots, and two abbreviated rows of smaller ones obscure, same 
color underneath ; feet hairy, particularly the third and fourth 
Pair, in the female, «1.23 and in the male Tras. The 
Sexes marked alike. 
_ Observations. Were it not that the eyes are differently
