SPECIES VI.— A. Roseus. 
RED-LINED-SPIDER. 
About the middle of June, a fingle male was found, amongft low grafs. Plate 9, 
fig. 9. 
The fituation of the eyes can fcarcely be termed triangular, as will appear from attending to 
the dots in the figure. All of them are of the fame fize, except the two outward ones of the 
lower feries, which are fomewhat bigger than the others : they are all black, with white 
borders. The proportions of the legs are 4, 2, i, and 3. They are greenifli, with two 
black claws, and with diffimilar thick hairs, briftles, and prickles. The thorax ovate, flat, 
hairy j of a greenifli yellow, and with the border on each fide yellowifli. The abdomen 
ovate, fulphur-coloured, all over hairy j with a rofe-coloured line through the middle, and 
on each fide. The arms of a yellowifli green, with many hairs, briftles, and prickles. 
Fig. 8, letter B. fliews the tuberous knobs at the arms of the male, which are brownifli and 
hairy. C. fliews the aculeus, or point, which is blackifli, and very large. A. fliews the 
joint next the thorax, which is of a peculiar form, and is better underftood by viewing the 
figure, than by any verbal defcription. The holders are of a yellowifli green, with very long, 
foft, fcattered, black hairs.

now to be treated of, is of the largeft, though not quite fo big as fome in the firfl; genus or 
fet. It has not the fame appearance with its congeners ; but fince it makes no web, it comes 
in mofl: properly among thefe, and cannot fo well be placed amongft the Lupi^ or the 
Phalangia.
