Snowdon range. Almost all the known mountain spiders of Britain were 
found on it in a very short period, the conspicuous absentees being Lepty- 
phantes pinicola Sim., Cornicularia Karpinskii Camb., Trochosa biwnguiculata 
Camb., and Amawrobius atropos Walck. The last is rather an extraordinary 
omission, as it is so abundant on the mountains of the English Lake District. 
Three species new to Britain were discovered. 
On June 16th, the following were picked up on the rocky shore of Mallaig 
harbour :— 
Segestria senoculata L. 
Drassodes lapidosus Walck. 
Heliophanus cupreus Walck. Both sexes. 
Evophrys frontalis Walck. Both sexes. 
Textrix denticulata Oliv. Both sexes. 
Pirata piratica Clerck. 
Tarentula barbipes Sund. Immature. 
Lycosa amentata Clerck. 
»  pullata Clerck.

Crinan Canal :— 
At the salt marsh, near Crinan:

Lycosa amentata Clerck. 
purbeckensis F. Camb. Small form. A female. In this 
sex the diagnosis from L. monticola C. L. K. is doubtful, but 
the nature of the locality makes it almost certain that it is 
”? 
the species named. 
Ceratinella brevipes Westr. 
(Kdothorax fuscus Bl.
