Synemaguiyang sp. nov., the fourth endemic species of Synema Simon, 1864 (Araneae, Thomisidae) from China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Synema Simon, 1864 is a relatively large genus of family Thomisidae Sundevall, 1833 and currently includes 124 species distributed worldwide, except for the Polar Regions. However, Synema can be regarded as being poorly represented in China, with only seven species, three of which are endemic.

New information

A new spider species of the genus Synema from Guiyang City in China, is described under the name of S.guiyang J. Zhang, Q. Lu & H. Yu, sp. nov. Detailed descriptions and photographs of the new species are provided. DNA barcodes (a partial fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene, COI) of the species were obtained to confirm matching of the sexes and for future use in molecular studies.

A new species of Lysiteles Simon, 1895 (Araneae, Thomisidae) from South China.

Project description:BackgroundLysiteles Simon, 1895 is one of the largest taxa with small body size among the Thomisidae and is mainly distributed in East, South and Southeast Asia. Most of them are recorded from southern provinces of China, such as Jiangxi Province, including three species. However, all of them are only discovered from Jinggang Mountain National Nature Reserve in Jiangxi Province. But there are still other species remaining unknown which need to be surveyed from other areas in this Province.New informationOne Lysiteles species was collected from Nanfengmian National Nature Reserve in Jiangxi Province. Based on morphological characters, it was recognised as a new species and has been named as Lysitelesnanfengmian sp. n. It is described and illustrated with photographs and its distribution is also mapped.

Project description:BackgroundTmarus Simon, 1875 is a relatively large spider genus, currently includes 227 species distributed worldwide. Fanjing Mountain Nature Reserve is one of China's most biodiverse regions. However, Tmarus can be regarded as being poorly represented in Fanjing Mountain, with only one species having been recorded so far: T.fanjing Yang & Yu, 2022.New informationRecently, various expeditions to Fanjing Mountain Nature Reserve were carried out by the authors. In this paper, two Tmarus species were brought to light by those expeditions: T.fanjing Yang & Yu, 2022 and T.circinalis Song & Chai, 1990. T.fanjing is redescribed, based on new material and the female is described and illustrated for the first time. The supplementary micrographs of T.circinalis are given for the first time.
