that he has it from Havana, Cuba. J/, celer (Hentz) probably includes 

 M. spinosa Ke^'serling. Mr. Banks has recorded spinosa from Santiago 

 de las Yegas and Cayamas, Cuba, and has named the specimens which 

 we took at nearly all of our stopping places in that island from Guane 

 to Guantanamo spinosa, while he named the specimens which we took at 

 3Iayagnez, Arecibo, Manati and Xagnabo in Porto Eico celer. On the 

 mainland, celer is found from Massachusetts to ^Mexico. The known dis- 

 tribution of ohiongus (Keyserling) is from ^Massachusetts to Illinois and 

 south to Georgia and Xew Mexico : also in Cuba (Santiago de las Vegas). 

 J/, viridans (Banks) is recorded only from Florida but Mr. Banks has it 

 from Havana, Cuba. See also the next genus. 



Misumessus echinatus Banks was described from material beaten 

 from oak trees on Cerro de Cabras near Pihar del Eio, Cuba. According 

 to the system followed here, it should probably be put under Misumenops. 



STEPHAyOPSiy,^ 



Isaloides contains but two specie? : one from Mexico and one, tous- 

 saintii Banks, from f Haiti and Cuba. It is closely related to and con- 

 sidered by Simon to be not more than a sui)-genus of Hedana. He would 

 also include the South American genera Dicea and Erissus. This adds 

 interest to the distribution data, one section of the genus being found 

 only in Hispaniola and South America while the other section is known 

 only from Ceylon, southwestern Asia, Philippines, Malasia, the Tonga 

 Islands, Australia and I^ew Zealand. 



Stephanopsis is confined to Madagascar, ]\Ialasia, Melanesia, Poly- 

 nesia. Australia and America. In America there is one species in Pan- 

 ama, eight in South America (chiefly Chile) and one in Tortola of the 

 Virgin Islands. Banks has recorded the genus from Santiago de las 

 Vegas. Cuba. He states that he had two species, both represented only 

 by immature specimens, and suggests that one of them is a }"oung 

 jientacjona Keyserling. This species is now considered to belong to 

 Onocolus. The species is known from Panama, Peru and Brazil, and as 

 Onoculus is solely a South American genus the interest in the distribu- 

 tion of Stephanopsis is not lessened. 



Tobias is an American genus, four species being confined to northern 

 South America and one, rugosus (Taczanowski), being recorded from 

 Brazil, -I- Guiana, Peru, Central America and Haiti.
