Abstract
Part II.—The Cribellatae. Simon, in his work, "Histoire Naturelle des Araignees" (second edition), divides Spiders into two sub-orders, namely, Araneae theraphosae and Aranae verae. Of these, the former was dealt with in my last paper. The latter, which now claims our attention, is again divided into two sections—Cribellatae and Ecribellatae; these terms signifying that those of the first section have what is known technically as a cribellum and calamistrum, whilst those constituting the second section are not so provided.
