Oarpenter^^ List of the Spiders of Ireland. 153 ■ 



Sahiia montana (BL). 



Ageleyia montana, £1. (Spiel. G.B. I.). 



Ulster, Connaught. 



Specimens of this spicier were collected at Portrusli by the Eev. 

 "W. r, Johnson in April, 1894, and I captured a pair of adults on the 

 summit of Ben Lettery, Connemara, when collecting for the R. I. A. 

 Flora and Pauna Committee in July, 1895. S. montana seems 

 generally distributed in Great Britain (Dorset, Grampians), but has 

 not yet been recognized elsewhere. 



Family. — DiCTYNiciE. 

 Bictyna arundinacea (L.). 



Ergatis henigna, Bl. (Spid. G. B. I.). 



Ulster, Connaught, Munster, Leinster. 



Evidently a widespread species, though I have as yet but few 

 records — Armagh ; Carndonagh, county of Donegal ; Mt. Talbot, 

 county of Eoscommon ; Glencar, county of Kerry ; and Tullamore. 

 Adult in May and June. In Great Britain it ranges from Dorset to the 

 Orkneys ; and on the Continent inhabits Sweden, France, Germany, 

 Austria, Hungary, Italy, and Croatia, extending eastward to Syria. 



Didyna uncinata, Thorell. 



Ulster, Connaught, Munster. 



This spider has, as yet, been found in Ireland only near Belfast 

 by Mr. "Workman (1880) ; in the limestone district of eastern Connaught, 

 at Clonbrock, county of Gal way, and Mote Park, county of Eos- 

 common ; and at Kenmare, county of Kerry. Adult in June and July. 

 Immature individuals occur both in June and September. Its British 

 and general distribution are similar to those of the preceding species. 



Bictyna latens (Fab.) 



Ergatis latens, Bl. (Spid. G. B. I.). 



Ulster, Connaught, Munster, Leinster. 



As yet the only Irish localities whence I have collected or received 

 this species are Londonderry ; Clonbrock, county of Gal way ; shores 

 of Lough Eee ; Kenmare, county of Kerry ; Tallaght, Howth, and 

 Baldoyle, county of Dublin. Adult in May, June, and July. B. 

 latens is common in the south of England, but I know of no records 

 for the north or for Scotland. It inhabits Sweden, France, Spain, 

 Italy, Croatia, and Gennany, becoming rare in Hungary, where it is 

 confined to the west.
