Araneus bonali sp. n., a novel lichen-patterned species found on oak trunks (Araneae, Araneidae)

Abstract: The new species Araneusbonali Morano, sp. n. (Araneae, Araneidae) collected in central and western Spain is described and illustrated. Its novel status is confirmed after a thorough revision of the literature and museum material from the Mediterranean Basin. The taxonomy of Araneus is complicated, but both morphological and molecular data supported the genus membership of Araneusbonali Morano, sp. n. Additionally, the species uniqueness was confirmed by sequencing the barcode gene cytochrome oxidase I from the… Show more

“…Araneus arganicola also has the same opisthosomal pattern as N. subfusca, thus it does not differ morphologically from Neoscona subfusca and becomes its junior synonym. Morano & Bonal (2018) also examined material of A. arganicola deposited in the MNHN, but they only saw subadult specimens. In their opinion, A. arganicola was a probable synonym of A. subfusca, which is confirmed here.…”

“…However, new studies on the arachnological fauna keep being done and, as a result, new species and new regional records keep being published over the years (e.g. Domènech et al 2020, Henriques et al 2018, Isaia et al 2017, Morano & Bonal 2018, which suggests that those checklists are still far from complete.…”
