This spider, which hy some writers , as Walckenaer and Sunde- 

 vall, has been confounded with the following, and even sometimes 

 with the preceding, under the name of E. apoclisa, has been by 

 Westring restored to its original Clerckian name , E. comuta. Linne's 

 Ar. arundinacea does not, as C. Koch supposes, belong to this spe- 

 cies, but to Walckenaer's llieridium benignum: at any rate Cleeck's 

 denomination is the oldest, and its belonging to the species before 

 us questioned by nobody. C. Koch has erroneously ') cited Ar. mar- 

 morea Schranck 2 ) — which is the same as Ar. marmoreus Cleeck — 

 under his E. arundinacea. — This widely spread species is among 

 those observed by me at Nice. 



As regards E. comuta "Walck. , Dolesch. and Sim. , vid. supr. (p. 

 5 — 7) under E. angulata Weste. — Ar. comuta Pallas 3 ) is a Nephila.
