apex (seen from the inner side), whithout any projecting protuberance 

 on the under side of the apex; the extremity is above, on the outer 

 side, produced into an almost lancet-formed process, pointing forwards 

 and lying over the lamina; this process is of the same length as the 

 tibial joint, not broader than half that joint when viewed from above, 

 arched towards the base, and grooved longitudinally towards the 

 apex. The lamina is obliquely oviform, about double as long as it 

 is broad , longer than the patellar and tibial joints together, as long 

 as the tarsus of the 1 st pair and as the mandibles, somewhat broader 

 than these and than the tibiae of the first pair, and not fully so 

 broad as the thighs of that pair; the bulbus is destitute of pro- 

 jecting parts on the under side, and nearly reaches the apex of the 

 lamina.

A fullgrown female of D. i?ifnscatus L. Koch, which Dr Koch 

 obligingly sent me, has been by Westring compared with the 

 type-specimen of his D. infuscatus and acknowledged identical with 

 this species. — I have myself only young and imperfectly deve- 

 loped Swedish specimens (received from Westring himself) of this 

 spider. In these specimens the cephalothorax is a trifle longer than 

 the tibia and patella of the 4 th pair together; the spine-armature of 

 the legs is conformable to L. Koch's statement, except as regards 

 the thighs of the 4 n ' pair, which in my specimens have above 1,1,
