Taxonomic-faunistic notes on the jumping spiders of the Mediterranean (Aranei: Salticidae)

Abstract

The paper presents new taxonomic and faunistic data on 162 species of the Mediterranean jumping spiders (Salticidae). Three new species are described: Heliophanus haymozi sp.n. (; Spain, Portugal), Heliophanus sinaicus sp.n. (; Egypt, Sinai) and Salticus ressli sp.n. (; Turkey). Two new synonyms are proposed:

New data on the spider fauna (Araneae) of Navarre, Spain: results from the 7thEDGG Field Workshop

“…For Asianellus festivus and Evarcha michailovi, we provide the second record for the Iberian Peninsula. Both species were previously found in Catalonia (Barrientos et al 2015, Logunov 2015. Nine species from our collection (Drassodes cupres, Gnaphosa lugubris, G. occidentalis, Haplodrassus typhoni, Zelotes atroceruleus, Gonatium rubens, Trichoncus affinis, Heliophanus dubius, Heterotheridion nigrovariegatum) are also rare in the Peninsula.…”

New data on spider fauna of Iran (Arachnida: Araneae), Part II

“…There are several small studies dealing with the description of new species or records of spiders new to Iran (Mirshamsi 2005;Ghahari and Marusik 2009;Kashefi et al 2013;Logunov et al 2013;Mirshamsi, Hatami, and Zamani 2013;Mirshamsi, Marusik, and Jamili 2013;Azarkina and Mirshamsi 2014;), but comprehensive taxonomic surveys are lacking (Logunov, Marusik, and Mozaffarian 2001;Mozaffarian and Marusik 2001;Ono and Martens 2005;Moradmand and Jäger 2011;. Therefore, the Iranian fauna of spiders should be considered to be poorly studied.…”
