THE SPIDERS OF ESSEX
Recent Additional Records
BY J. E. HULL, M.A., D.Sc.
[Read November 29th, 1947]
THE list here presented1 is mainly the result of collections
made in the neighbourhood of Elmstead, near Colchester,
in the period May 1944 to June 1945, when I had the valuable
help of Mr. T. Moody of the Technical College, Colchester.
It includes, however, a few species taken on previous short visits
to the district, when I could get about more freely. Here is the
classified list:—
