species) thickly but exceedingly finely sculptured with minute 

 strise. 



The palpi are short, the cubital and radial joints very short ; 

 the latter is the strongest, but has no projection or apophysis, 

 being only furnished with hairs and several longish bristles in 

 front, rather on the outer side. The digital joint is rather small, 

 with a large lobe on the outer side, towards the hinder extremity. 

 Tho palpal organs are complex, but do not present any very 

 noteworthy feature. 



On the 9th of July, 1863, I found an adult male near Sher- 

 borne, running on tho Yeovil Road. This species, which was 

 inadvertently omitted in the former part of the work, is also 

 found among grass in old pastures as well as on railings and 

 footpaths, in Lancashire, North Wales, and several parts of 

 Scotland, as far north as Eosshire. There is now I think no 

 doubt of its identity with Erigone larbata, Thor., I.e., though at 

 tho time of the publication of my paper (Ann. and Mag. N. H., 

 1879), I believed it to bo distinct. 



NERIENE IMPEOBA. 



Neriene impeoba, Camlr., Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist. 1879, ser. 

 5, vol. 4, p. 202, pi. xii., fig. 6. 



Length of male 1-1 4th of an inch. 



Cephalo-thorax dark black-brown, tinged with an olive- 

 greenish hue. Ocular area somewhat produced forwards, but 

 with no eminence or elevation on the caput ; profile lovel, the 

 dip between the caput and thorax very slight. 



The eyes are at the extremity of the caput. The four centrals 

 describe a square, whose posterior side is longer than the rest. 

 The position of the fore-central and lateral pairs is rather diffi- 

 cult to make out, owing to their indistinctness, but the interval 

 between the eyes of the former considerably exceeds a diameter. 



Legs moderately long, slender, yellow. 



Palpi short ; digital joint and palpal organs very large, the 

 rest very slender. The cubital joint is very short ; the radial
