) The genera Tarentula and Trochosa (in wliich I also iuclude Arctosa C. Kocn) gradually pass inlo one 

 aiiothcr: I have herc reckoned to Trochosa not only those species in which the first row of cyes is longer 

 than the second, but also those in which it is not evideiitly shorter than tliis row; in these last-namcd 

 species, e. gr. the four first here described, the face is vcry low (the distance from the margin of the cly- 

 pcus to ihc upper margin of the eyrs of the second row is not greatcr, but often much shorter than half 

 the lengtli of the niandibles), aiid tliu area occupied by the four posterior eyes in general much broader be- 

 hind than belore, as in tiie typiciil Troclionw.
