Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue Of The Spiders Of Burma: Based Upon The Collection Made By Eugene W. Oates And Preserved in The British Museum

Mr. Oates's collection is extremely rich in species, new not only to the fauna of Burma but also to science. It contains, moreover, males or females of many species of which only one sex has hitherto been described. The number of known Burmese Spiders up till now was only 175. Mr. Oates's collection, however, eon tains no less than 310 Species, of which 206 are new to Burma, and of these 153 appear to be new also to science! Thus Mr. Oates has more than doubled the number of known Burmese Spiders, which is now 381.
