Notes
Content: Printed on border: "… (Fig. 47); this is the egg-sac, which the female carries about with her attached to her spinnerets." "Sometimes the entrance to these nests is concealed by small sticks and leaves, and sometimes the spider builds a regular turret over the entrance of its tube (Fig. 48). These nests are used merely as retreats, the spiders wandering forth in search of their prey." Includes additional text.
