Lycosidae. 



Lycosa frondicola Emer. One specimen was taken about camp at 

 the Light-house (I, 7). 



Geographic Range. Conn., Marx, '90, p. 561; New Hampshire; 

 Slosson, '98, p. 248 ; Penn., Stone, '90, p. 426 ; Michigan ; Dist. Columbia, 

 Marx, '96, p. 160. Indiana, Pox, '93, p. 269. 



Lycosa pratensis Emer. On a gravelly beach near the Light-house (I, 

 1) dragging an egg-case with it, in the rock clearing (I, 2) and on 

 the dry Jack Pine Eidge (I, 5) were the situations in which this species 

 was taken. Emerton, '02, p. 69. 



Geographic Range. Anticosti, Quebec ; White Mts., N. H. ; Mass. ; Conn. ; 

 Porcupine Mountains, Mich.; Lake of the Woods; Laggan, Alberta. 

 Marx, '90, p. 563 and Emerton, '94, p. 422. 



Lycosa kochi Keys. This was an abundant species, found upon the 

 beach near the Light-house (I, 1) ; in a rock clearing adjoining the 

 beach (I, 2) (G, 71), and about the camp on Siskowit Bay (V, 3) where 

 one had been captured by a wasp. One with an egg-case attached 

 was buried under half an inch of soil on a rock ridge (I, 2). Emerton, 

 '02, p. 74. 



Geographic Range. Mass.; Conn.; Penn.; New Jersey; Dist. 

 Columbia; Michigan. Emerton, '85, p. 486; Stone, '90, p. 426; Marx, 

 '96.' p. 160. 



Pardosa glacialis Thor. Found quite abundantly running about over 

 the wet sphagnum on the north shore of Forbes Lake (II, 5) ; many 

 were carrying cocoons. Others were secured among the open cassandra, 

 tamarack and spruce zone about a pond (V, 11). Several other speci- 

 mens were taken running about with cocoons in the Cladonia- Jumper 

 procumiens and bearberry belt on a sloping rock beach (V, 2). Emer- 

 ton, '02, p. 80. 



Geographic Range. Greenland; Labrador; White Mts., N. H. ; Massa- 

 chusetts (Emerton); Conn.; Laggan, Alberta; Emerton, '94, p. 

 425; New Mexico, Psyche, 9, p. 123, Marx, 96a, p. 197. Found 

 near Ann Arbor, Mich, in a tamarack swamp (Miss Jean Dawson), 

 thus clearly indicating the boreal island character of such a habitat. 



Pardosa groenlandica Thor. This was apparently the most common 

 species of spider collected. Many were found running about over the 

 rocky, gravelly or sandy beaches (I, 1) with cocoons (G. 16, 38, 39, 30, 

 46). A specimen was also taken on the open heath beach on the south 

 shore near Siskowit Bay (V, 2). Emerton, '02, p. 79. 



Geographic Range. Greenland; Labrador; Anticosti Island, Quebec; 

 White Mts., above the tree limit among stones (Emerton), N. H. ; Lake 

 of the Woods; Laggan, Alberta; Idaho; Colorado; Washington; Oregon; 

 Alaska. Emerton, '94, pp. 400, 423; Banks, '98, p. 16, '95, p. 430; Marx, 

 96a, p. 197. 



Pardosa sternalis Th.=hi,teola Em. All the specimens of this species 

 were taken in open areas in a small Cladonia, clearing near the beach 

 on the north side of Conglomerate Bay (I, 2), and crawling about over 

 the nests of the ant Formica fusca (V, 3) ; the heath beach near Sis- 

 kowit Bay (V, 2) (A. 107) and in the open area about our camp on 

 Siskowit Bay (V, 3) (G. 225). Most of the females carried cocoons.
