. Catalogue of a collection of Spiders made in Egypt, with descrip- 
tions of new species, and characters of a new genus. Tom. cit. 
pp. 541-630, pis. Iviii.-lx. 
The catalogue contains 164 species of numerous genera and families ; 
64 new species are described, and one genus of the family Ly cosides is 
characterized as new. A list is added of Egyptian spiders recorded by 
other authors, but not contained in the catalogue ; these make up the 
known species indigenous to Egypt to 226. The Spiders of Palestine 
are also compared (in respect to their families and genera) with those of 
Egypt, and also with those of Great Britain. The number of species 
common to Palestine and Egypt is 48. The number of genera in Egypt 
is 60, distributed amongst 18 families, those most numerously repre- 
sented being the Drassides, Agelenides, Theridiides, Epeirides, Thomisides, 
Lycosidesj and Salticides.
