Nemesia Manderstjernæ, Plate XX., fig. B, C, p. 254. Syn. _Nemesia Manderstjernæ_, Auss. ♂, _Beitr. zur Kenntn. der Arachn. Fam. der Territelariæ_, p. 54. _Nemesia meridionalis_, Cambr. (female), _Harvesting Ants and Trap-door Spiders_, by J. T. Moggridge, p. 101. Plates IX. X. XI. Adult male, length 6-1/4 to 7-1/2 lines. Since the publication of the description of _N. meridionalis_, Cambr. (♀ l.c. _supra_), I have had an opportunity of examining an adult example of each sex of a _Nemesia_, described about the same time by M. Eugène Simon as _N. meridionalis_, Costa, in _Aranéides nouv. ou peu connus du Midi de l'Europe_, p. 21 (separate copy). The species described by M. Simon was found by himself abundantly in Corsica. He also gives Italy and Provence as localities, but the former of these two is, I conclude, given as being _Costa's_ locality for the spider described by this latter author in _Fauna d. Regn. Napl. Arachn._, p. 14; the other locality (Provence) would seem to have been doubtfully given. On careful examination of the Corsican examples (male and female), and on comparing them with the male and female of _N. meridionalis_, Cambr., as well as the description and figure given by Costa, I feel no doubt but that M. Simon is right in according to the Corsican species M. Costa's name--_meridionalis_. It agrees, I think, decidedly better, on the whole, with Costa's figure and description than the species to which (l.c.) I had allotted the specific name _meridionalis_ conferred by that author. Nor had I any hesitation in accepting the determination made by M. Simon, in _Bull. Ent. Soc. Fr._, 1873, sér. v. tom. 3, c.; that my _N. meridionalis_ ♀ is the female of _N. Manderstjernæ_, Auss., the more especially as since the publication of my description I have received from the same locality (Mentone) not only the male of the spider described by myself (l.c.), but also the type of M. Ausserer's description of _N. Manderstjernæ_ (found at Nice), and believe these to be identical in species. There is, indeed, a difference in the, apparent, relative positions and colour of the eyes of the two spiders, but no more than may be well accounted for by the condition of M. Ausserer's type (most kindly lent to me for examination by its owner, Dr. Ludwig Koch); this example is much shrunken, having the appearance of having been allowed to get dry and then to have been again immersed in spirit. This would (I have frequently found it so in other spiders) cause even the hard integument of the cephalothorax to contract, and so cause the eyes to shrink up together into a closer group, as well as to sink down into the cuticle, making some of them appear smaller than they really are. Alternate drying and wetting again in spirit would also account for the yellowish brown colour of the eyes, whereas in the male of the Mentone spider the eyes of the hinder row are pearly grey, and of the front row dark grey. Beyond these
