The palpi are similar to the legs in colour, and the cubital 

 joint (which is of a strongish somewhat tumid form) has a 

 minute prominent point directed forwards at its fore extremity, 

 rather on the outer side, but not easily seen among the coarse 

 hairs with which tho palpus is clothed. The palpal organs are 

 surrounded in front bj' a black spine, but the slightly twisted 

 process projecting backwards at their base is (unlike the much 

 twisted corresponding one in D. arundinaceaj inconspicuous. 



In its general form and appearance this spider bears close 

 resembling to Dictym arundinacea, Linn, (p 49) and other 

 British species ; the caput being elevated and particularly gibbous 

 in the occipital region, and the fakes somowhat of the same 

 long, curved, characteristic form. It may, however, be easily dis- 

 tinguished, not only by its greenish hue, but by the structure of 

 the palpi and palpal organs. 



Examples of this species, found at Box Hill, Surrey, were 

 kindly sent to me in 1879 by Mr. T. Workman, of Belfast.

On the 12th of June, 1880, I discovered an adult male and 

 female of this species at the roots of heather on Bloxworth 

 Heath. This is its first recorded occurrence in Dorsetshire. 



GENUS NEEIENE, Bl. 



NER1ENE CAMPBELLII, sp.n. 



Adult male, length rather less than 1 line. 



The cephalo-thorax, legs, and other fore parts (excepting the 

 sternum) of this spider are of a reddish yellow-brown hue, and 

 the abdomen brownish black, much mottled with yellowish, 

 which, however, is probably not very distinguishable, excepting
