thirds the length of the plate (Fig. 8). Spermathecae rather slender, 
situated anterior to the genital groove (Fig. 11). 
Range. Southeastern United States and possibly northeastern 
Mexico. 
Florida Localities. Royal Palm Park; Miami; Lake Worth; 
Dunedin; Leesburg, Lake County; Edgewater; Gainesville; St. 
Augustine ; Blount’s Ferry. 
Comments. P. ftoridensis has been known heretofore only from 
Banks’ (1904) type females, which were collected at Lake Worth, 
Palm Beach County, Florida. These specimens, which are deposited 
in the Museum of Comparative Zoology, have a rather unusual color 
pattern, and examination of the males of all known Florida species 
of Philodromus shows that the type male of P. deceptus Gertsch is 
the only one with the same pattern. The type male of deceptus is in 
the American Museum of Natural History, New York, and was col- 
lected at Gainesville, Florida. 
P. ftoridensis can be separated from P. satullus and P. montanus , 
to which it is very similar, by the depressed “cervical groove” area, 
the placement of the posterior lateral eyes on the carapace margin, 
and larger size of ftoridensis. Although the body shape is quite dis- 
tinct from that of P. bilineatus, which is an elongate, striped species, 
Bryant (1933), for some unspecified reason, indicated a female of 
ftoridensis as allotype of her new species bilineatus.

Description. Male: Measurements from two males were as fol- 
lows: total length 2.40, 3.08 mm; cephalothorax 1.14, 1.16 mm long 
and 0.96, 1.04 mm wide; femur II 1.44, 1.40 mm long; ocular quad- 
rangle 0.22, 0.21 mm long and 0.55, 0.52 mm wide. The first meas- 
urement given for each character is from the type male of bilineatus. 
Carapace roughly rectangular in dorsal view, much flattened ; lateral 
areas yellow-orange, with a narrow white band along margin and a 
pair of orange-brown submarginal bands extending from the posterior 
lateral eyes to the posterior margin. Eyes ringed with white ; lateral 
eyes of both rows placed on the carapace margins and seated on low 
tubercles. Legs orange-brown to yellow, III and IV with a narrow 
black prolateral band from coxa to tibia ; all legs with indistinct brown 
retrolateral band; tibiae and basitarsi I and II each with three pairs 
of ventral spines, the distal pair on each segment apical and small ; 
femora unarmed except for one prolateral spine near the middle of
