Of thefe infefts, therefore, which in reality are not Spidersy though fo named by the older 
writers, who appear to have examined them but flightly, I lhall merely give the general 
characters, illuftrated by the figures, at plate 9, fig. 1,3, and 5; and briefly mention the reafons 
which forbid them to be placed amongft the real Spiders, 
I. These Binocular or Two-eyed SpiderSy have the thorax and abdomen united into one 
body or trunk, without any divifion or junClure, as in the true Spiders, 2. They have not 
eight eyes, like real SpiderSy but only two, and differently fituated from thofe of Spiders, 
3* Their legs are totally unlike thofe oi Spiders, 
From the above circumftances of difcrepancy, I have therefore thought myfelf juftified in 
omitting the Binocular-Spider Sy as not properly belonging to the genuine ones. 
This opinion I alfo propofed to the illuflrious Linnaeus, who was pleafed not only to 
confirm it, but likewife affured me, “ That in his own works, the Fauna Suecicay and Syflema 
“ Naturecy now about to be publifhed, he had feparated the above infeCls from the proper 
Spidersy and placed them in a diftinCl genus.” 
THE END.
