(Figs 23 –28)
Metopina sagittata Liu, 1995: 485.
The type series was from China (Guangzhou, Guangdong and Guangxi). In the original description the costal index of the female was given as 0.36, and this was repeated by Liu (2001). However, this is clearly at odds with his figure of the wing in the latter publication and the costal index of a paratype (see below) is 0.56–0.57. The specimen from Korea is a little paler than the females from China and the costal index is 0.52–0.53. Its abdominal tergites 3–6 are as Figs 24–26 compared with Liu’s figure (Fig. 23). From his figure the length to breadth ratios of T3 and T4 are 1.5: 1 and 0.9: 1. For the Korean specimen these ratios are 1.1: 1 and 0.9: 1. However, the difference for T3 is probably not significant as the front margin of the tergite is not only less well defined than the other margins but is frequently partly obscured by partial overlap by the posterior edge of segment 2. Also there is evidently some variation as Liu gives the wing length as 0.94–1.0 mm. For the Korean specimen the length is 1.10 mm.
Material. 1 female paratype, China, Nanning, Guangxi, 10 May 1992 (Liu Guanghung & Wang Min (CUMZ, 5-128). 1 female, Korea, Mt Gujeolsan, Hongcheon-gun, Gangwon-do, Korea, 29 May 1998, Lee, Heung-sik (CUMZ, 31-27).

Achramorpha diomediae

description: Achramorpha diomediae Hôzawa, 1918
Original description. Hôzawa 1918, p. 540, pl. 85, fig 10.
Type locality. Off Cape Rollin, Simushir Island, Kuriles. St. 4803, 418 m depth.
Synonym and citations. Achramorpha diomediae, Burton 1963, p. 93.
Type material. [Cat. No. 1971, U.S. N.M.: one specimen].
Material examined. BMNH-1938.7.4.72: one specimen and one slide, Swedish Bank, Zool. Inst. Acad. Sci. Leningrad. BMNH-1938.7.4.73: three specimens of different species, and one slide, Sea of Okhotsk, St. 214, Zool. Inst. Acad. Sci. Leningrad.
Remarks. Based on the original description, Achramorpha diomediae mainly differs from all other Achramorpha species due to the presence of an atrial skeleton composed of tetractines with their unpaired actines directed toward the base of the sponge (Hôzawa 1918). Another difference is the absence of chiactines, which are not mentioned by Hôzawa (1918), and based on the spicule figures presented in the original description, this type of tetractines is not present in A. diomediae. In line with these characteristics, A. diomediae does not fit into the definition of the genus Achramorpha and should be excluded. However, the formal reallocation of this species to another genus requires an examination of the holotype.
The material analysed from the BMNH collection identified as A. diomediae also presents some incongruences. First, the material available in the collection is in two jars, the first one with one specimen (BMNH-1938.7.4.72) and the second (BMNH-1938.7.4.73) contains three different specimens with fairly distinctive morphology. Secondly, the slide from the specimen BMNH-1938.7.4.72 does not have chiactines in the atrial skeleton, presenting instead an atrial skeleton built up by tetractines with very long apical actines, similar to Breitfussia. Third, the slide of the specimen BMNH-1938.7.4.73, does not specify to which of the three specimens it belongs. Fourth, after examination of this second slide, we noticed that the skeletal arrangement is completely different than that in the slide of the specimen BMNH-1938.7.4.72. In summary, the samples available in the BMNH collection under the name A. diomediae are not Achramorpha, and should not be considered within this group of chiactines-bearing sponges.

description: Genus Ceriomydas WillistonOeriomydasWilliston, 1898: 58. Type-species,fraudulentus
Williston(orig. des.).
The original description is as follows:
"Like Mydas J but the abdomen as in Ceria or Oonops. The abdomen is pedunculate, much narrower at the base, broadly expanded and acuminate distally; the first two segments are tapering, the third cylindrical, with parallel sides, and nearly twice as long as wide; the fifth segment is as broad as the thorax, whence the abdomen tapers to a point. The face is more produced downwards than in Mydas) and the labella are larger. There is a marginal cross-vein in the wings, and the hind tibiae are spurred".
In the description of [raudulentue Williston stated "lamella (antennal club) altogether about three-fourths the length of the third joint. - Length 27 mm.".
"One specimen (~), Chapada, Brazil (H. H. Smith). This specimen shows a remarkable mimicry of certain ones of Oonops occurring in the same region".
The female abdomen is narrowed basally in a few species of Mydas. This is probably most evident in Mydas tricinctus Bellardi; in dorsal view tergite 3 is one and one-half times as broad as long.
A photograph of Oeriomydas irouduientus Williston was published by Williston (1908: 18, fig. 3), and Curran (1934: 480). The genus is known only from the type, which could not be located.

Rhopalia Macquart of d'Andretta & Carrera, 1951: 7, pl. 1, figs. 1-8 (misident.).
Head in anterior view one and one-third times as broad as high; face at antennae one-half width of head; oral margin at about one-fourth distance from lower eye margin to antennae. Gibbosity densely pollinose. Proboscis similar to Messiasia) labella about two-thirds length of oral cavity; palpi atrophied. Antennal segment 1 cylindrical and about two times as long as broad; 2 one-half length of 1 and about as broad as long; 3 slender and about two times as long as 1-2; club subequal in length to 3, at three-fourths its length about one-half as wide as long.
Mesonotum densely pollinose, narrow margins of central stripe anteriorly and narrow intermediate stripes bare of pollen; hairs short, sparse, semi-erect on lateral margins and dorsocentral stripes. Scutellum densely pollinose with central basal bare spot; without hairs. Postscutellum densely pollinose, slightly rugose laterally, bare. Pleura and coxae densely pollinose; sparse, short hairs on episternum-L, pteropleura, and metasternum.
Abdominal tergite 1 and base of 2 densely pollinose; 1a slightly rounded, bare; 1p with short, sparse, erect hairs; hairs on 2-7 short, sparse, recumbent; bullae narrow, about three times as long as wide (Fig. 57). Sternites with short, sparse, recumbent hairs, 7-8 with sparse, long hairs, d' 8 about one-seventh as long as 7. Female with apical circlet of spines. Male genitalia (Figs. 132-134): hypandrium completely fused to basistyli, resulting structure hemispherical, rounded in ventral view; the whole structure presents a great development, and is also fused by means of a well developed bridge with the aedeagus; the latter is a thick cone, slightly pointed backwards (dorsally). The combined volumes of these structures render the genitalia quite open, and the cerci and anal lamellae are bent backwards; cerci and triangular epandrial halves coalescent on their bases.

A single female (in MHNG; leg. P.J. Schwendinger), large (carapace length 12.45, carapace width 11.02) and uniformly dark-coloured, was collected close to the Jeram Linang Waterfall (Fig. 1, locality 13), south of Kota Baharu in the Kelantan State, together with the types of L. linang sp. nov. It produced an egg case in late January. Judging from the shape of its vulval plate, this specimen belongs to an undescribed species in the malayanus -group,

Liphistius batuensis

description: The batuensis -group
Diagnosis: Small to medium-sized spiders (carapace length of males 4.42-6.46, carapace width 4.02- 5.87). Distinguished from species of other groups by males with a strongly reduced proximal edge on the tegulum (Figs 19H, 21B, 23I) and with an elongated prodorsal-apical lobe on the cymbium (Figs 19C, 21H, 23J). Females similar to those of the linang -group in possessing a vulval plate with reduced pigmentation and sclerotisation, distinguished by a relatively wider vulval plate with the poreplate only partially connected to the large and wide posterior stalk or separated by a short distance (Figs 20, 22, 24).
Species included: Liphistius batuensis, L. tempurung and L. priceae sp. nov.
Relationships: The reduced pigmentation and sclerotisation of the vulval plate and the reduced posterior edge of the tegulum point to a close relationship with the linang -group, but a loss or reduction is only a weak indication for common ancestry. At present the relationships of the batuensis - group with other groups are unclear, but there is strong morphological evidence for close relationship among the species of the batuensis -group. Moreover, all three species have a strong association with caves (much more so than in species of the tioman -group).
Distribution: Western and central part of peninsular Malaysia (Fig. 1, localities 15-18). All species are known exclusively from limestone caves.

description: Sparianthis granadensis (Keyserling, 1880)
Figs 69–70, 143
Themeropis granadensis Keyserling, 1880: 235, plate 6, fig. 128 (holotype subadult female, Neu-Granada [Colombia, Bogotá, 4.5833, -74.0667], A. Lindig leg., NHM 90.7.1.3164, examined).
Sparianthis granadensis: Simon 1880: 339. World Spider Catalog 2020.
Note. Although S. granadensis was described based on a subadult female and no other material was examined that could be attributed to this species, the dissection of the genitalia of the holotype enabled me to examine the external features of the epigyne. The description provided by Keyserling (1880) is quite complete and here I add few additional characters, mainly in the diagnosis. Characters such as eye arrangement, diameters and interdistances and cheliceral dentition follow the generic pattern. I am convinced that this is a valid species, and that the collection and examination of material from the region of Bogota will yield fresh adult male and female specimens for a more thorough redescription in the future.
Diagnosis. Females of S. granadensis resemble those of S. picta by the epigyne with median septum light bulbshaped and anterior atrium wider than long (Figs 70, 125). They are distinguished from the latter species by anterior atrium rectangular (oval in S. picta) (Figs 69–70). Additionally, both species can be distinguished by the number of ventral spines on leg metatarsi I–II: two pairs in S. granadensis and three pairs in S. picta.
Description. Female (holotype): see Keyserling (1880).
Additional description: Spination follows generic pattern, except femora I–III: r1-1-1. Epigyne: not completely formed; lateral lobes indistinct (Figs 69–70).
Male: unknown.
Distribution. Only known from the type locality in Colombia (Fig 143).

Etymology. The specific name refers to the type locality; noun in apposition.
Diagnosis. Females of S. juazeiro sp. nov. resemble those of S. beebei sp. nov. by the epigyne with lateral furrows reaching anterior furrow and lateral lobes smooth (Figs 14, 90). They are distinguished from the latter species by median septum hour glass-shaped, constricted at middle, and internal ducts with first turn mediad (median septum beer glass-shaped, constricted at posterior fourth, and first turn anteriad in S. beebei sp. nov.) (Figs 90–92).
Description. Female (holotype): Prosoma and chelicerae brown; fovea darker brown; eye borders black. Labium and endites pale brown, distally yellowish brown. Sternum yellowish brown with brown margins. Opisthosoma pale brownish gray; dorsally with irregular marks laterally, small irregular marks around cardiac mark, one median chevron and three median triangles down posterior half; ventrally with V-shaped lines of muscle sigilla on anterior half of opisthosoma (Figs 86–87). Total length 8.4. Prosoma: 3.9 long, 3.2 wide. Opisthosoma: 4.3 long, 2.6 wide. Eyes: diameters: 0.25, 0.22, 0.15, 0.21; interdistances: 0.23, 0.14, 0.44, 0.27, 0.15, 0.04. Legs (1423): I: 10.9 (3.2, 1.8, 2.7, 2.5, 0.7); II: 10.4 (3.3, 1.7, 2.5, 2.3, 0.6); III: 8.1 (2.4, 1.3, 1.9, 1.9, 0.6); IV: 10.6 (3.1, 1.2, 2.4, 3.0, 0.9). Spination follows the generic pattern. Metatarsus III–IV with ventral distal preening combs. Epigyne: epigynal field squared, as long as wide; anterior furrow straight (Figs 88, 90). Vulva: internal ducts slightly wider than half spermathecae width; glandular projection arising from duct at first turn; spermathecae oval (Figs 89, 91–92).
Male. Unknown.
Distribution. Only known from the type locality in northwestern state of Acre, Brazil (Fig. 144).

Note. Decaphora ambigua comb. nov. is known solely from a juvenile specimen. Nevertheless, the original description mentions characters that are congruent with those of Decaphora, especially the presence of six small teeth on the retromargin of the chelicerae. All other Neotropical Sparianthinae genera have only two small teeth on the retromargin. In addition, the type locality of D. ambigua falls within the distribution range of Decaphora, known from southern Florida to Costa Rica, with one species occurring in western Colombia.

Note. Sparianthis fusca was described from a juvenile specimen. All characters are congruent with those of the genus Sparianthis and the type locality falls within the distribution range of the genus. It could be a synonym of S. ravida. Nevertheless, adult material from the type locality is needed to confirm this identity.

Note. Uaiuara jayuyae is known solely from a juvenile specimen. Nevertheless, the original description and illustrations clearly place it within the genus Uaiuara, especially the coloration pattern of the dorsal habitus and the presence of nine pairs of ventral spines on tibiae I–II. To date, Uaiuara is the only Neotropical Sparianthinae genus with more than three pairs of spines on ventral tibiae I–II.

Note. Sparianthis accentuata was described based on an adult female and the type species is supposedly deposited in MBUC, but was not examined. The original description and illustration are not enough to confirm the placement of the species in any of the known Sparianthinae genera. Nevertheless, the illustration of the epigyne clearly shows that it does not belong to Sparianthis.

Figs 6, 27, 53
Diagnosis
The subspecies differs from the nominotypical subspecies mainly by interval seven hanging over laterally behind the humerus and covering interval eight nearly completely in dorsal view. In addition, the reticulation on interval eight is indistinct in general and covers only half of the width of the interval, and the lateral lobe of the clypeus is completely fused with the clypeal wing.
Etymology
The name refers to the reticulation on interval eight of the elytron which covers half of the interval by contrast to the nominate subspecies.
Type material
Holotype
INDONESIA • ♂; with two yellow labels, both handwritten in black ink and data: “ Java ” / “Reiche”; MNHN.
Remark. The left front leg and in the right front leg the four terminal tarsomeres are missing. The right elytron and the pronotum show pinholes and the pronotum a substantial crack. The specimen is very brittle and rotten inside.
Description
MEASUREMENTS. Holotype. Body length 8.83 mm, width 2.49 mm; L/W of pronotum 1.01; L/W of elytra 1.9.
