point of tlio othor apophysis. Digital joint of moderate size ; palpal 

 organs prominent, complex, with a duplex black spine, curved in 

 a circular form, bonoath the outer side of their extremity. 



Abdomen black, tinged with olive brown. 



This is one of the most romarkable of the genus in the form 

 of the cephalic eminence. It was found among heather at 

 Wokingham, by the Rov. C. W. Penny, in May, 1872. It has 

 also been found in Prussia, France, and Bavaria, but is

GENUS TAPINOPA, Westr. 

 TAPINOPA FINITIMA. 



Linyphia finitima, Cambr., Trans. Linn. Soc. xxvii, p. 426. 



Length of the male l-10th of an inch. 



Very nearly allied to Tapinopa longidens, Wid., to which it also 

 bears considerable resemblance, but is much smaller, and all the 

 characteristic points are very much less strongly developed ; for 

 instance, the prominence at the base of the digital joint is short 

 and of a somewhat conical form. The falces are also smaller, 

 and its teeth shorter than in T. longidens. The eyes are on black 

 spots, in two closely approximated rows ; those of the hind- 

 central pair are further from each other than each is from the 

 lateral eye of the same row on its side ; and the height of the 

 clypeus is only equal to the diameter of a fore-central eye. The 

 cephalo-thorax is yellow, with a black marginal lino, and a 

 blackish angular marking at the occiput. The abdomen is 

 whitish, with a few black markings. 



Found in the neighbourhood of London. 



TAPINOPA UNICOLOK.

Length of the female nearly 2J lines. 



This spider is also nearly allied to Tapinopa longidens, and 

 resembles it in general form and structure, but is almost totally
