Nominal species devoid of diagnostic drawings are not quoted: those without drawings but having specimens preserved in any collection (so called "species inquirenda") are left disregarded until type specimens will be revised, nominal species without preserved specimens are considered nomina nuda. ---------------------------------------- * FOOTNOTE - check Prószy ński, J.

ZooKeys 440: 57–87. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.440.7891 Abstract In order to resolve better the deep relationships among salticid spiders, we compiled and analyzed a mo- lecular dataset of 169 salticid taxa (and 7 outgroups) and 8 gene regions. This dataset adds many new taxa to previous analyses, especially among the non-salticoid salticids, as well as two new genes – wingless and myosin heavy chain. Both of these genes, and especially the better sampled wingless, confirm many of the relationships indicated by other genes.

  • Checklist of Spiders (Arachnida: Araneae) from India-2012
    © Indian Society of Arachnology ISSN 2278 - 1587(Online) CHECKLIST OF SPIDERS (ARACHNIDA: ARANEAE) FROM INDIA-2012 Keswani, S.; P. Hadole and A. Rajoria* SGB Amravati University, Amravati-444602 [email protected]; [email protected] *Indraprastha University, Delhi; [email protected] ABSTRACT Spiders comprise one of the largest (5-6th) orders of animals. The spider fauna of India has never been studied in its entirety despite of contributions by many arachnologists since Stoliczka (1869). In the present paper, we provide an updated checklist of spiders from India based on published records and on the collections of the Arachnology Museum, SGB Amravati University. A total of 1686 species of spiders are now recorded from India. They belong to two infraorders, Mygalomorphae and Araneomorphae, 60 families and 438 genera. The list also includes 70 species from Karakorum. The spider diversity in India is dominated by Saltisids followed by Thomisids and then Araneids, Gnaphosids and Lycosids. Key words: India, Araneae, spider fauna, checklist. INTRODUCTION The pioneering contribution on the taxonomy of Indian spiders is that of European arachnologist Stoliczka (1869). Review of available literature reveals that the earliest contribution by Blackwall (1867); Karsch (1873); Simon (1887); Thorell (1895) and Pocock (1900) were the pioneer workers of Indian spiders. They described many species from India. Tikader (1980, 1982), Tikader, and Malhotra (1980) described spiders from India. Tikader (1980) compiled a book on Thomisid spiders of India, comprising two subfamilies, 25 genera and 115 species. Of these, 23 species were new to science. Descriptions, illustrations and distributions of all species were given. Keys to the subfamilies, genera, and species were provided.

This paper provides a detailed description of the male along with illustrations and brief note on its natural history. Keywords: Curubis tetrica, salticidae, jumping spider, Kerala, India. INTRODUCTION Curubis is a genus originally described by Simon in 1902 with C. erratica as the type. The genus yet remains with nominal representation. There are only five repored species; three from Sri Lanka, one from India and one unnamed from Indonesia. Generally very small salticids with dull brown or beige body colouration. Palps stumpy with a comparatively broad papal organ having a complex structure. Bulbus covered with a flat plate; usually a lobe-like conductor and a small conical embolus appear as projected out from the plate over the bulbus. Zabka (1988) provided a description and illustrations of C. tetrica from Sri Lanka. Curubis tetrica Simon, 1902 General characters and diagnostic features: Very small spiders in dull sandy yellow colouration. Usually found on tree trunks. Clypeus and dorsal surface of the tibia of male palps with thick tuft of long white hairs. Distribution: India: Kerala, Sri Lanka Specimens examined: 3 Kadavanthra, Ernakulam District, Kerala 14 - V - 2007, 2 , 18 - IV - 2008, Kanjoor, Ernakulam District, Kerala and 2 , 4 - X - 2008, Palaruvi, Kollam District, Kerala.

Patil Sangludkar Mahavidyalaya, Daryapur, India. corrosponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper contains a systematic list of species and the literature references of the spiders precinctive in India. Spiders from 58 families, 340 genera and 1238 species are precinctive in India. However, there is an urgent need to revise all these species. Key words: Precinctive spiders, India INTRODUCTION The first information on the precinctive spider fauna of India came from the female specimen of Oxyopes indicus (Walckenaer, 1805). Thereafter, the work of Sundevall (1833); Walckenaer (1841); Blackwall (1864, 1867); Simon (1864, 1885, 1887, 1888, 1889, 1892, 1893, 1895, 1897, 1900, 1901, 1902, 1905, 1906); Frauenfeld (1867); Thorell (1868, 1891); Stoliczka (1869) O. P.-Cambridge (1870, 1872, 1873, 1874, 1877, 1885 , 1890, 1892, 1896); Butler (1873); Wood Mason (1877); Keyserling (1890); Walsh, (1891); Peckham & Peckham (1895); Pocock (1895, 1899, 1900, 1901); Leardi (1901, 1902); Strand (1907, 1912); Hirst (1909); Narayan (1915) Gravely (1915, 1921, 1924, 1927, 1931, 1935); Chamberlin (1917); Hogg (1922), Hingston (1927); Sherriffs (1927); Mukerjee (1930); Reimoser (1934); Caporiacco (1934, 1935); Bhattacharya (1935); Roewer (1942) and Fage (1946) initiated the spider research during British India. These workers reported 408 spider species from India which are endemic to India. Later on, spider research was geared up in India from 1962 by the work of Tikader (1960-1991), Gajbe (1975-2008), Biswas (1984-2004) and Patel (1972-2005) who reported more than 500 spider species precinctive in India.

  • Review of the Genus Hasarius (Araneae: Salticidae) - a Taxonomic Fiasco1*

Wilcza 63, 00-679 Warsaw, POLAND. e-mail: [email protected] Received 28 December 2017 │ Accepted by V. Pešić: 19 January 2018 │ Published online 23 January 2018. Abstract The genus Hasarius Simon, 1871, is revised following methodology recommended by “Pragmatic classification” of Prószyński (2017). Structure of the genus is insufficiently known, containing at present single cosmopolite species and a few of uncertain congeners. The paper introduces the following nomenclatorical corrections: Hasarius adansoni: Jastrzebski, 2010b: 321, f. 1, 4-5 (female only) = Hasarius tropicus Jastrzebski, 2010 - correction of identification. Species: kweilinensis Prószyński, 1992, orientale Zabka, 1985, dactyloides Xie, Peng & Kim, 1993 listed variably in combinations with generic names Habrocestum, Habrocestoides, Hasarius and Chinattus seem to be misplaced in these genera and deserve transfer to own new genus. Qualification of 6 species of Hasarius as "nomina dubia" by the WSC (ver. 18.5) after Roewer's (1954[1955]: 1523-1524) is changed to "pending revision" because of existence of preserved type specimens. Synonymy of the genera Gedea Simon, 1902 and Meata Zabka, 1985 proposed recently by Maddison (2015) without published documentation are not recognized here until proof will appear printed. Key words: pragmatic classification, molecular classification, molecular phylogeny, chain of morphological similarities, Chinattus, Habrocestoides, Habrocestum, Hasarius, Salticidae, system, taxonomy.

Email: [email protected] Article history Abstract. A preliminary checklist of araneofauna of Pathiramanal Island is provided. A total of 147 Received: 25 August 2020; species belonging to 26 families under 92 genera are documented. Tylorida ventralis (Thorell 1877) accepted 12 November 2020 is considered to be the dominant species, and orb weavers are seen as the dominant guild. Araneidae, Salticidae, Theridiidae, Tetragnathidae and Thomisidae are five dominant families.

The males of Meotipa picturara, Curubis tetrica and Pscellonus planus are described for the first time. Eight species are synonymized and redescribed. Mating plug formation in Argyrodes flavescens is reported for the first time. It is noted that spider species from Pathiramanl Island bear affinities with Oriental and Palearctic regions.
