which suits E. palmarum. better than E. faustum. But Hentz him- 

 self, already in 1832, in his paper (referred to by me, loc. cit. !) 

 "On North American Spiders", in the American Journal of Science 

 and Arts, XXI, p. 108, whei*e the genus Epiblemum was first pro- 

 posed and characterized, expressly sets up E. faustum as the type of 

 that genus '). Had Simon been aware of this , his remark would 

 probably never have been made.

Handl., 1832, p. 208. 

 Prof. Stal has lately sent me several Swedish specimens of 

 Marpessa radiata (Grube) 01' Attus strigipes Westr. — among them 

 an adult male — captured by the late Prof. Boheman in the isle of 

 Gotland and in the neighbourhood of Stockholm. — On A. muscosus

Pag. 425. Thomisus Cambridgii Blackw. — The spider de- 

 scribed by Cambridge under the name of Th. Cambridgii is not 

 the male of Th. Cambridgii Blackw.: see above, p. 568. 



Pag. 450. Walckenaera punctata Blackw. — A female specimen 

 of Erigone punctata (Blackw.) has been captured in Upland by Mr

 biting Sweden. 



Pag. 465. Dysdera erythrina Blackw. (D. Cambridgii N.). — In 

 the isle of Formentera a Dysdera occurs, which in the form of the 

 bulbus genitalis of the male greatly resembles D. Cambridgii, but 

 is very much smaller, only about 5 millim. long: I call this spe- 

 cies D. pumila 2 ). 



1) "... I have concluded to make the first of the two following the type of 

 a new genus. Epiblemum faustum obscure, cephalothorax edged with white, with 

 two spots on the disk also white, abdomen edged at base, and with four short 

 bands, white. E. palmarum deep ferruginous, with two bands on the cephalo- 

 thorax and the abdomen, white; second, third and fourth pair of legs whitish".
