CluUona eompta, L. Kocli. 



Ulster, Connaught, Leinster. 



This spider seems to be most plentiful in eastern Ireland. It is- 

 common in county of Dublin, -wbere I have received or collected 

 it from many localities — Portmarnock, Lucan, Tallaght, Glendbu 

 (Dublin mountains). The only Ulster localities are Londonderry, 

 county of Antrim, and county of Armagh (Loughgilly and Poyntz- 

 pass). In the west it has hitherto been found only at Mote Park, 

 county of Eoscommon. It is probably absent from Connemara, and 

 no examples have been yet found further south than Bray, county of 

 Wicklow. Adults occur in April, May, June, and immature indi- 

 viduals have been captured in January and March. It is commoner 

 in Great Britain than the preceding species, occurring in numerous 

 localities from Dorset to Oban and Aberdeen. Abroad, it is recorded 

 from Sweden, northern and eastern Prance, Germany, Austria, 

 northern and central Hungary, and northern Italy. 



Clubiona hrevipes, Bl. 



Ulster, Connaught, Munster, Leinster. 



Apparently this is a scarce spider in Ireland. The only localities 

 known to me are Armagh ; Ardara, county of Donegal ; Slieve Glah, 

 county of Cavan ; Dugort, Achill, county of Mayo ; Kenmare, county 

 of Kerry; and Enniskerry, county of Wicklow. It is a common 

 species in England, though it has not been found in Scotland further 

 north than Edinburgh. It occurs in the Channel Islands, throughout 

 France (also in Corsica), and in Sweden, Germany, Austria, and 

 Hungary. 



Chiracanthium erraticum (Wick.). 



Clubiona erratica, Bl. (Spid. G. B. I.). 



Munster, Leinster. 



A scarce spider^in Ireland. The only localities where it has occurred 

 are Cratloe, county of Clare (coll. P. ITeale), and Bray, county of 

 "Wicklow (coll. J. N. Halbert). In Great Britain it is widely dis- 

 tributed — Dorset to Oban and the Grampians ; as well as on the Con- 

 tinent — Sweden, northern and central Prance, Germany, Austria, 

 Hungary, and Italy.
