Pag. 259. Thomisus horridus Westr. ~ In the male the pa- 

 tellar joint of the palpus is but little longer than it is broad, 

 rounded in front; the tibial joint is very short, broader towards the 

 apex, at the inner edge much shorter than it is broad at the base; 

 the outer side is somewhat drawn out forward, about double as long 

 as the inner; the apex of that side is continued in the form of a 

 strong, reddish or rust-coloured process directed forwards and slightly 

 outwards, which reaches about to the middle of the lamina, and 

 carries in the midst of its outer side an outward-pointing, stout, 

 compressed and, on the under side, angularly dilated tooth of the 

 same colour; beneath, on the outer side, the tibial joint bears a 

 pretty short and stout, blunt , forward- and downward-pointing and 

 slightly upward-curved process. The uuder side of the bulbus is 

 formed for the most part of a flat, almost plane lamina; at the 

 apex, on the outer side, it runs out into a process abruptly folded 

 backward, compressed, directed backwards and outwards and tapering 

 towards the apex. The vulva consists of a little fovea, which is 

 bounded in front by a stout, yellowish callus emarginated at the 

 hinder border. 



Pag. 259, 475. Pldlodromns (Walck). — A spider of this genus, 

 which I have not found described by any other writer than Schranck, 

 is Ph. emarginotus (Schranck) 1803 '), and a few words on this spe- 

 cies may therefore not be out of place here. It is easily recog- 

 nized by the abdomen being in the midst of the anterior margin visibly 

 incised, or deeply, but not broadly, emarginated. The cephalothorax,
