 Menge (Verzeichn. d. Danziger Spinn.'), p. 69) seems also to be the 

 same as L. scalarifera id. or L. emphana Walck.

This species is not described by Blackwall. Besides in Swe- 

 den, Finnland and Lappland, it has been met with in Germany, 

 Hungary, France and Switzerland, where I captured a specimen at S:t 

 Moritz in Ober-Engadin. Grube (Verzeichn. d. Arachn. Liv-, Kur- 

 u. Ehstl., p. 27 (441)) considers it as synonymous with L. peltata 

 Keoss, which is not right.

The synonyms of this species are difficult to determine: only 

 Blackwall's, Cambridge's and Menge's synonyms above given can be 

 with certainty looked upon as indicating the same species as Sun- 

 devall's and Westring's L. hortensis. The Rev. Mr. Cambridge, who 

 sent me fullgrown specimens of both sexes of L pratensis Blackw. , 

 has himself informed me that his L. albicincta is only the young 

 of this last species. — In L. hortensis $ the two white side-stripes 

 on the abdomen each terminate in a curved line passing in towards 

 the back a little above the anus, which lines often meet and form 

 a cross-curve; but the small interval between these curved lines and
