Theridion lepidum Walck. 



T. venestrum Cambr. (Spiel. Dorset). 



Phyllondhis instabilis, Cambr. 



Letnstee. 



I took two males adult, in June, at Fenagh, Co. Carlow, and a few 

 females later in the summer. This spider seems to inhabit grass and low 

 bushes ; and the females, unlike most species of the genus, carry their egg 

 cocoon about with them. Dr. A. E. Jackson tells me he has taken this 

 species in Middlesex and Buckinghamshire, and Mr, Cambridge records it as 

 T. vemcstum, from Exeter, and as P. instabilis, from Bloxworth, Dorset. 

 M. Simon records it from several places in France, and also from Bavaria. 



Euryopis flavomaculatum (C. L. Koch). 

 Theridion flavomaculatum Bl. (Spid. G. B. & I.). 



MUNSTER. 



A single adult male of this rare species was taken at Glencar, south 

 of Lough Caragh, Co. Kerry, by Mr. J. N. Halbert, on 27th June, 1906, 

 while collecting for the Eoyal Society. Mr. Cambridge says this spider is 

 exceedingly rare. He records the capture at Bloxworth, Dorset, of one pair 

 at one time, and two pairs at another. Dr. A. R. Jackson also records it 

 from Bexhill (Mr. Bennet) and Delamere forest. It is found in many parts 

 of France (Simon), and several places in Hungary (Kulcz.). 



Pedanostethus neglectus (Cambr.). 



Neriene negleda Cambr. (Spid. Dorset). 



Ulstee. 



A single adult male of this rare species was taken in 1900 by 

 Mr. R. Welch, at the Marble Arch, near Belcoo, Co. Fermanagh. It is 

 recorded, though rarely, from various parts of England and Scotland. 

 M. Simon records it from five or six places in France, and also from Bellagio, 

 North Italy, and from Corsica. 



Ceratinella brevipes (West.). 



Wcdckenaera hrevipes Cambr. (Spid. Dorset). 



Leinster. 



I have taken adults of both sexes in February, May, and June, at 

 Fenagh, Co. Carlow. It is very closely allied to C. hrevis Wid., but is 

 commoner with me than that species. It is found in England and Scotland 

 as far north as Aberdeen ; while on the Continent it ranges as far north as 

 Sweden,
