We present the first record of Attulus saltator (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1868) for Spain. The single male was collected in Blanes, Catalonia. Additionally, we offer nine new records for the Spanish region of Galicia (province of Lugo) and seven for Catalonia (province of Girona), one of which is Cepheia longiseta (Simon, 1881), which represents the first record of the family Synaphridae in the region of Catalonia. Furthermore, a redescription of the male of Amaurobius occidentalis Simon, 1893 is provided.

“…When it comes to urban areas, the species has been found in yards on ornamental shrubs. In the surrounding area, the species is found in Serbia [36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43]. This Palearctic species has been registered in a total of 6 sites and the largest number of individuals was observed at sites Gromiţelj and Velino selo (Figure 3.).…”

According to data given by [1], 165 spider species from 27 families and 103 genera are known in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. So far in B&H, according to [1] a total of 11 species have been registered from Fam.Aranidae and 2 species from genus Araneus; a total of 11 species from Fam.Thomisidae; a total of 11 species from Fam.Lycosidae and one species from genus Lycosa; 15 species from Fam.Theridiidae and 3 species from genus Steatoda. In the course of our research on arachnofauna in and around Gromiţelj, in the 2008-2015 period, a total of 8 spider species new to Bosnia and Herzegovina were discovered in four families, namely, from Fam. Aranidae 4 species; Fam.Thomisidae 2 species; and 1 species each from Fam.Lycosidae and Fam. Theridiidae each. Most widespread are Argiope bruennichi and Araneus angulatus that were registered in 20 sites, followed by Araneus quadratus, Synema globosum and Runcinia grammica registered in 6 sites. Sites with the most registered newly discovered species are Gromiţelj with 6 species, followed by Velino selo, Laketića vir, Prugnjaĉa, Begov put and other melioration channels with 5 species. By biotope types, the greatest number of species, six of them, were found in vegetation (wetlands, thicket, forest fringe and vegetation on the channel banks and along the roads). The species Argiope bruennichi and Araneus angulatus also showed the greatest diversity of habitats, from wet meadows, thicket and reeds around the wetland, through forest fringes and vegetation along the channel banks and roads, to those urban like yards with ornamental shrubs. Of the registered species, only the species from Fam.Thomisidae are completely harmless to humans, while the other species belong to slightly poisonous species and have a local character bite. Slightly poisonous species include the species of the genus Steatoda, Araneus, Argiope and Lycosa.

“…The dashboards are based on the 37 open access articles in Zootaxa containing treatments on spiders (Table 1 ), and five articles in Biodiversity Data Journal ( Miller et al 2013 , Miller et al 2014 , Deltshev et al 2013 , Crespo et al 2014 , Čandek et al 2013 ; note that data in Čandek et al 2013 have been updated to reflect corrections made by the authors in a corrigendum, Čandek et al 2015 , Miller et al 2015 ). The partitions of data offer novel ways to explore and visualize taxonomic research information from geographic, institutional, temporal, individual, and specimen-oriented perspectives.…”

“…496 (73.8%) of the species treatments explicitly cited specimens. Of these, about two fifths (42.1%, 209) were based on a single specimen; the one new species was based on 69 specimens; the species with the most specimens (10.4%, 352) was Tenuiphantes tenuis , which appeared in three treatments ( Čandek et al 2013 , Crespo et al 2014 , Deltshev et al 2013 ). The dominant family by both treatments (22.9%, 154) and specimens (33.4%, 1,134) was the Linyphiidae .…”

Specimen data in taxonomic literature are among the highest quality primary biodiversity data. Innovative cybertaxonomic journals are using workflows that maintain data structure and disseminate electronic content to aggregators and other users; such structure is lost in traditional taxonomic publishing. Legacy taxonomic literature is a vast repository of knowledge about biodiversity. Currently, access to that resource is cumbersome, especially for non-specialist data consumers. Markup is a mechanism that makes this content more accessible, and is especially suited to machine analysis. Fine-grained XML (Extensible Markup Language) markup was applied to all (37) open-access articles published in the journal Zootaxa containing treatments on spiders (Order: Araneae). The markup approach was optimized to extract primary specimen data from legacy publications. These data were combined with data from articles containing treatments on spiders published in Biodiversity Data Journal where XML structure is part of the routine publication process. A series of charts was developed to visualize the content of specimen data in XML-tagged taxonomic treatments, either singly or in aggregate. The data can be filtered by several fields (including journal, taxon, institutional collection, collecting country, collector, author, article and treatment) to query particular aspects of the data. We demonstrate here that XML markup using GoldenGATE can address the challenge presented by unstructured legacy data, can extract structured primary biodiversity data which can be aggregated with and jointly queried with data from other Darwin Core-compatible sources, and show how visualization of these data can communicate key information contained in biodiversity literature. We complement recent studies on aspects of biodiversity knowledge using XML structured data to explore 1) the time lag between species discovry and description, and 2) the prevelence of rarity in species descriptions.
