Carpenter — A List of the S2nders of Ireland.

Pardosa herligrada (BL), 



Lycosa herligrada, Bl. (Spiel. Q. B. I.). 



Ulster, Connaiiglit, Leinster. 



Typical examples of tiiis beautiful spicier have occurred in Ireland 

 only at Eoundstone and Clonbrock, county of Galway (Carpenter, 

 1896, ii.). "With these specimens, however, were found others in 

 which the median yellow band is narrow, more or less dilated behind 

 the eyes, and showing a decided approach to typical P. palustris. 

 This variety has also occurred at Londonderry ; Arvagh, county of

Tig. 5. — Pardosa herligrada, cephalotliorax of typical specimen (Clon- 

 brock, county of Galway). 



Figs. 6, 7, 8. — Varieties sho-n^ing transition to F. palustris (Eoundstone, 

 county of Galway). 



Fig. 9. — P. Fahtstris, typical (county of Kerry). 



Cavan ; lEulroy Bay, county of Donegal ; Athleague, county of Eos- 

 common ; Lough Derevaragh, county of Westmeath. Mr. Cambridge 

 is indeed of opinion that they should be regarded as a variety of P. 

 palustris ; and, in the short paper referred to above, I also expressed 

 this view. But as they are larger than typical P. palustris, and 

 occurred in company with P, herligrada, I prefer to consider them a 

 variety of the latter. In any case they go far to bridge the gap
