The old genus Libitia Simon, 1879 of small Andean harvestmen is revisited. The monotypic genus Libitiella Roewer, 1947 is herein considered a junior subjective synonym of Libitia. Accordingly, Libitiella bipunctata (Sørensen, 1932) is restored to the combination Libitia bipunctata. The species Libitia cordata and Libitia bipunctata comb.

Final Project Completion Report

CEPF SMALL GRANT FINAL PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT Organization Legal Name: - Tarantula (Araneae: Theraphosidae) spider diversity, distribution and habitat-use: A study on Protected Area adequacy and Project Title: conservation planning at a landscape level in the Western Ghats of Uttara Kannada district, Karnataka Date of Report: 18 August 2011 Dr. Manju Siliwal Wildlife Information Liaison Development Society Report Author and Contact 9-A, Lal Bahadur Colony, Near Bharathi Colony Information Peelamedu Coimbatore 641004 Tamil Nadu, India CEPF Region: The Western Ghats Region (Sahyadri-Konkan and Malnad-Kodugu Corridors). 2. Strategic Direction: To improve the conservation of globally threatened species of the Western Ghats through systematic conservation planning and action. The present project aimed to improve the conservation status of two globally threatened (Molur et al. 2008b, Siliwal et al., 2008b) ground dwelling theraphosid species, Thrigmopoeus insignis and T. truculentus endemic to the Western Ghats through systematic conservation planning and action. Investment Priority 2.1 Monitor and assess the conservation status of globally threatened species with an emphasis on lesser-known organisms such as reptiles and fish. The present project was focused on an ignored or lesser-known group of spiders called Tarantulas/ Theraphosid spiders and provided valuable information on population status and potential conservation sites in Uttara Kannada district, which will help in future monitoring and assessment of conservation status of the two globally threatened theraphosid species T. insignis and Near Threatened T. truculentus. Investment Priority 2.3. Evaluate the existing protected area network for adequate globally threatened species representation and assess effectiveness of protected area types in biodiversity conservation.
The Case of Embrik Strand (Arachnida: Araneae) 22-29 Arachnologische Mitteilungen / Arachnology Letters 59: 22-29 Karlsruhe, April 2020

The case of Embrik Strand (Arachnida: Araneae) 22-29 Arachnologische Mitteilungen / Arachnology Letters 59: 22-29 Karlsruhe, April 2020 How to deal with destroyed type material? The case of Embrik Strand (Arachnida: Araneae) Wolfgang Nentwig, Theo Blick, Daniel Gloor, Peter Jäger & Christian Kropf doi: 10.30963/aramit5904 Abstract. When the museums of Lübeck, Stuttgart, Tübingen and partly of Wiesbaden were destroyed during World War II between 1942 and 1945, also all or parts of their type material were destroyed, among them types from spider species described by Embrik Strand bet- ween 1906 and 1917. He did not illustrate type material from 181 species and one subspecies and described them only in an insufficient manner. These species were never recollected during more than 110 years and no additional taxonomically relevant information was published in the arachnological literature. It is impossible to recognize them, so we declare these 181 species here as nomina dubia. Four of these species belong to monotypic genera, two of them to a ditypic genus described by Strand in the context of the mentioned species descriptions. Consequently, without including valid species, the five genera Carteroniella Strand, 1907, Eurypelmella Strand, 1907, Theumella Strand, 1906, Thianella Strand, 1907 and Tmeticides Strand, 1907 are here also declared as nomina dubia. Palystes modificus minor Strand, 1906 is a junior synonym of P.

Araneae: Lycosidae) from Canada: a Morphological Description Supported by DNA Barcoding of 19 Congeners

BLAGOEV1 & CHARLES D. DONDALE2 1 Research Associate, Biodiversity Institute of Ontario, University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario N1G 2W1, [email protected] 2 Retiree, Biodiversity Program, Research Branch, Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0C6, [email protected] Abstract A new species, Alopecosa koponeni sp. n., is described from the Arctic part of Manitoba. Individuals of A. koponeni most resemble those of A. pictilis (Emerton, 1885), but are smaller than the latter and differ in the epiginum and in colour pattern in both sexes. DNA barcode results show an interspecific distance of 0.93 between A. koponeni sp. n. and A. pictilis, a shallow genetic divergence that suggests a recent separation. Introduction Spiders of the Canadian Arctic are becoming better known through recent collecting efforts and through published revisions such as those by Dupérré (2013), Marusik et al. (2006), Marusik & Koponen (2001), Saaristo & Koponen (1998), and Saaristo & Marusik (2004). Additionally, two recent checklists also included arctic species (Buckle et al. 2001; Paquin et al. 2010) and a recent study on the spiders of Churchill revealed an undescribed species of Alopecosa, which was given the interim name Alopecosa sp. 1GAB (Blagoev et al.

The European Museums. Indian checklist is also updated for 2006. The South Asian While the Indian checklist (Siliwal et al., 2005) is more spider list is also compiled following The World Spider Catalog accurate, the South Asian spider checklist is not critically by Platnick and other peer-reviewed publications since the last scrutinized due to lack of complete literature, but it gives an update. In total, 2299 species of spiders in 67 families have overview of species found in various South Asian countries, been reported from South Asia. There are 39 species included in this regions checklist that are not listed in the World Catalog gives the endemism of species and forms a basis for careful of Spiders. Taxonomic verification is recommended for 51 species. and participatory work by arachnologists in the region.

New findings of quite special spiders in Burmese amber (a deposit of “missing links”) are really sensational and provide new hypotheses and conclusions. Appar- ently certain extinct spider groups of the Early and Mid Cretaceous represent “key taxa” as models – or even as “missing links” – to the most diverse branches of de- rived living spiders, e.g., (a) the recently described tailed spider of the peculiar genus Chimerarachne (photo 1) which is a “link” to all groups of living spiders, (b) a “link” to the derived Jumping spiders (Salticidae) and its relatives (members of the “RTA- clade”) and (c) a “link” to Orb-web spiders (Araneidae and its relatives)
