af Yet.-Akad. ForhandL, XV (1858), p. 199 et seq. — Besides the 

 European H. paradoxus, only one more species of this highly intere- 

 sting genus is with certainty known, viz. H.flavidus (Blackw.) from 

 Madeira ')• Of his H. (Mithras) dubius, also from Madeira, Black- 

 wall himself says, that it "possibly may be the female of Mithras 

 Jiavidus" 2 ). — The spider, which Giebel 3 ) has described under the 

 name of Uptiotes longipes (from Egypt), does not belong to this genus, 

 but probably to Loxosceles Hein. et Lowe (Omosites Walck.).

In Rec. crit. aran., p. 31 et seq., I have set forth in detail the 

 synonyms of this species , as also those of L. triangularis (Clerck) , 

 and have corrected the errors, which, especially through YValckenaer 

 (Ins. Apt., II, p. 242), had crept in. I have there shown that Ar. monta- 

 nus Clerck (not Ar. montana Linn. !) is the same species as De Geer's 

 Ar. resupina domestica , as is clearly shown by the whole description ,
