conspicuous: one in the middle, which is oblong, curved a little 

 forward and at the anterior edge slightly emarginated and denti- 

 culated, the two others nearer the apex, the one of them triangular 

 and pointed, the other, which is situated immediately under (outside) 

 and parallel with this , long and slender, of almost uniform breadth , 

 somewhat curved, blunt at the extremity. The tibiae of the 2:nd 

 pair are incrassated near the apex and are there armed with some 

 strong spines. 



C. Koch erroneously classes Ar. and Ep. adianla Walck. under 

 E. (Mir.) ceropegia. — To me it seems probable, that the spider 

 figured in Sulzer's Kennzeich. d. Ins., Tab. XXII, fig. 149, as also 

 that in Sch^ffer's Ic. Ins. Katisb., I, Tab. XIX, fig. xn, which two 

 figures C. Koch refers to M. ceropegia, do not belong to that spe- 

 cies, but rather to E. adianta Walck.

Prof. Menge has lately favoured me a 2 ad. of his S. Herii, 

 which perfectly agrees with the Swedish S. pygmcva (Sund.): the 

 cephalothorax is dark brown, with yellow margins. — On this spe- 

 cies see also above, p. 455 et seq

 llieridion mandibulare Luc. (Pachygnatha? mandibularis Cambr.), under 

 which name I have received specimens from Mr Simon and the Rev. 

 0. P. Cambridge. Several specimens, among which is a c? ad., have 

 been captured in the island of Iviza and given to me by Dr F. S. 

 Soderlund. I do not as yet see the necessity of removing this spider 

 from the genus Zilla , and therefore call it Z. mandibularis (Luc.) ')•
