furnished with a tuft of strong, bristly, black hairs, and at the 

 fore extremity is a strong projection, stretching obliquely out- 

 wards over the base of the digital joint, and ending somewhat 

 in the form of a crescent. 



This species is not rare among lichens on troes (especially 

 apple trees) at Bloxworth, and is adult in the early summer 

 months. I have also met with it at Glanvilles "Wootton.

Tho adult male measures l-12th of an inch in longth. The caput 

 is level with tho thorax. The colour of tho cephalo-thorax is 

 yellowish-brown, the legs rather paler, and the abdomen darker 

 brown. The two central eyes of the hinder row are further from 

 each other than each is from the lateral eye, of the same row, on 

 its side. The palpi are short, the radial joint is rather longer 

 and stronger than the cubital, and is produced a littlo in front 

 on tho inner sido, ending in an obtuse point. The cubital 

 joint has several strong, black, bristly hairs in front on the 

 upper side ; the digital joint is large and obtusely conical on 

 tho upper side, the point of the cone rather directed outwards 

 There is also an angular enlargement near tho base on the outer 

 side. Palpal organs prominent and complex. Eare at Blox- 

 worth among moss in spring. I have also met with it at 

 Hursloy, noar Winchester. 



NERIENE SUBTILIS. 



Neriene subtilis, Cambr., Zoologist 1863, p. 8684. 



Adult male, length l-12th of an inch. The caput does not rise 

 above tho level of the thorax. The colour of the cephalo- 

 thorax is reddish yellow-brown, that of the legs brightish red- 

 brown, paler at the articulation of the joints, and the abdomen 

 black, or brownish-black. The two central eyes of the hinder 

 row are nearer together than each is to the lateral eye on its side.
