description: Sennius muricatus (Sharp, 1885), comb n.
Bruchus muricatus Sharp, 1885: 464 (description, distribution); Pic, 1913: 36 (distribution).
Acanthoscelides muricatus: Blackwelder, 1946: 760 (combination, catalog); Janzen, 1972: 975 (distribution, host); Wilcox, 1975: 6 (catalog); Janzen, 1980: 948 (ecology, host).
Megasennius muricatus: Whitehead & Kingsolver, 1975a: 460 –465 (combination, type, redescription, figures, host, distribution); Janzen, 1977: 417 (host); Johnson, 1980: 31 (host); Johnson & Kingsolver, 1981: 420 (distribution); Borowiec, 1987: 8, 21, 103, 104, 170, 181, 197 (citation, distribution, host, figures); Udayagiri & Wadhi, 1989: 84 (catalog); Turnbow et al., 2003: 275 (distribution).
Type material (2, BMNH): Syntypes not studied, deposited in BMHN with locality: Bugaba, Panama.
Remark. Bruchus muricatus Sharp, 1885 is here transferred to Sennius due the hind femur with one tooth at inner ventral margin, and internal sac of male genitalia with hinge sclerites. The boundary between the genera Megasennius (monotypic) and Sennius was not supported in the cladistic analysis of the genus Sennius (Viana, 2014). Except for the crossed hinge sclerites in male genitalia, other diagnostic characters described by Whitehead & Kingsolver (1975a) for Megasennius, such as an expanded postocular lobe, teeth near the base of the elytral striae, hind femur with large spine, hind tibia with long mucro, have been described in different combinations of characters for some South American Sennius species (Viana & Costa Ribeiro-2013a, b, 2014). Therefore this species is here treated as Sennius muricatus (NEW COMBINATION) and, as Megasennius is monotypic and Sennius muricatus is its type species, here Megasennius is also synonymized with Sennius (NEW SYNONYM).

Remark. Pic (1930) did not mention how many specimens he studied when described Bruchus notatopygus. A female specimen was received from MNHN with labels and locality data identical to the information given in the original description (Brésil) and Pic’s handwritten label " type " and " notatopygus Pic "; here this specimen is considered as syntype. This species is here treated as Sennius notatopygus (NEW COMBINATION) due to the hind femur with one tooth at inner ventral margin and internal sac of male genitalia with hinge sclerites, this last character studied from a compared male specimen from DZUP.

Remarks. The specimen received from MNHN has Pic’s handwritten label " type " and " reductus n sp" and the locality is the same as quoted in the original description (Brésil). Although Kingsolver has attached a label of holotype, Pic (1930) does not indicate the number of specimens studied and the specimen is designated as lectotype. This species is here treated as Sennius reductus (NEW COMBINATION) due mainly by the characters hind femur with one tooth at inner ventral margin and internal sac of male genitalia with hinge sclerites.

Type material (1, MNHN). Lectotype male with labels: “ Bruchus / alticola / Mexi” “ alticola? /  / var. a  /  pygid. / et une bomde /  /  ” “ v. rufopygus / Pic” “Holotype” “ carneofasciatus / var. rufopygus / Pic / det. 70 / J.

Remarks. One specimen was received from the MNHN with two of Pic’s conflicting handwritten labels “ Bruchus / alticola / Mexi ” and " v. rufopygus / Pic ", added bellow to the second extensive label. However, I concluded that this second label, “ alticola? /  / var. a  /  pygid. / et une bomde /  / ”, show the doubts about the identification as Sennius alticola (Sharp 1885), followed by the label identifying as " v. rufopygus / Pic ". Since the locality on the label (Mexi) is similar to the data given in the original description (Mexique) of Bruchus carneofasciatus var. rufopygus and the Pic’s handwritten label " v. rufopygus / Pic ", here this specimen is designated as lectotype. The examination of the Bruchus carneofasciatus v. rufopygus lectotype showed that it is a separate species from Bruchus carneofasciatus (junior synonym of Sennius transversesignatus). Therefore, Bruchus carneofasciatus v. rufopygus (Pic, 1930) is here proposed as Sennius rufopygus (Pic, 1930) (NEW STATUS and NEW COMBINATION).

Kingsover ” “ Sennius trinotaticollis / (Pic, 1930) / det J.H. Viana 2014” “ Lectotype / Bruchus diversicollis Pic, 1930 / design. J. H. Viana ”.
Remarks. The recognition of Sennius trinotaticollis was based on Viana & Ribeiro-Costa (2013b), and the homotype determined by J. M. Kingsolver in 1971 deposited at MNHN.
Bruchus diversicollis (NEW SYNONYM) is here synonomized with Bruchus trinotaticollis. Both names were proposed by Pic in the same work, so I prioritize Bruchus trinotaticollis since this name is more common in literature (Principle of the First Reviser, article 24.2 of the ICZN 1999). In the original description, Pic does not indicate the number of specimens studied, however one specimen was received from MNHN with location data identical to what is given in the original description, Cayenne. This specimen is here considered as a lectotype of B. diversicollis.

Remarks. The recognition of Bruchus ventralis was based on personal notes by John M. Kingsolver on this type specimen and a male homotype deposited at USNM and identified by J. M. Kingsolver in 1979. Here, Sennius ventralis (NEW COMBINATION) is formally proposed due mainly to the hind femur with one tooth at inner ventral margin, and internal sac of male genitalia with hinge sclerites.

Protohermes axillatus Navás, 1932. Brotéria Cienc. Nat. 1: 148. Type locality: Vietnam (Chapa).
Distribution. Vietnam (Lao Cai Prov.).
Remarks. This species was originally described by Navás (1932) based on a single female specimen from Vietnam. The type locality ‘Chapa’ is the current Sa Pa in Lao Cai Province. The type was mentioned to be deposited in the Navás’ collection in the original description, which was moved to the Museo de Zoología in Barcelona. Unfortunately, the type of this species is not presented in the neuropteran collection of Museo de Zoología in Barcelona after a kind checking by Dr. V. Monserrat in this year and is probably destroyed or lost (personal communication). According to the original description and illustration, this species is likely to be a member of the Protohermes davidi group (Liu & Yang 2006a), on the basis of its well developed post-ocular spine and immaculate wings. Considering the different prothoracic markings and the disjunct distribution, this species can be distinguished from the known species of the P. davidi group. Its validity and taxonomic status will only be clarified when additional specimens become available.

Distribution. China (Guangxi Prov., Yunnan Prov.); Myanmar (Dawna); Vietnam (Bac Kan Prov., Lao Cai Prov., Tuyen Quang Prov.).
Remarks. This species was originally described by Navás (1926) based on two specimens collected from Ngan–Son, Tonkin, which is probably a locality in the Bac Kan Province of northern Vietnam. However, due to the poor original description and illustration, the specific identity of this species was obscured for a long time with no further information being reported after the original description. Fortunately, we found the two syntypes identified by Navás as P. striatulus in DEI in fine condition. Examination of these specimens confirmed their membership in the Protohermes costalis group (Liu et al., 2007a). Additionally, these specimens were identical to those described as Protohermes basiflavus Yang, 2004. Therefore, we herein treat P. basiflavus as a junior synonym of P. striatulus and designate a lectotype and paralectotype for the species.

Protohermes vitalisi Navás, 1919. Mem. Acc. Nuovi Lincei 5: 17. Type locality: Tonkin.
Distribution. Vietnam.
Remarks. This species was described by Navás (1919) based on only one female specimen from Tonkin (northern Vietnam). His work lacked illustrations and any additional collection data. The type was said to be deposited in the Navás collection, which was moved to the Museo de Zoología in Barcelona. However, the type of this species is not presented in the neuropteran collection of Museo de Zoología in Barcelona. Dr. V. Monserrat check the collection thoroughly in this year and the type was not found. It is presumed destroyed or lost (Monserrat, personal communication). This species was considered to be closely related to P. striatulus by Navás (1926), but based on the original description it appears to be more similar to P. stigmosus Liu, Hayashi & Yang, 2007 from southern Yunnan, China due to the presence of four paired prothoracic spots in P. v i t a l i s i and five paired in P. stigmosus.

description: Genus Zodarion Walckenaer, 1826
Type species. Enyo nitida Audouin, 1826
Regarding male palps and epigynes, the Zodarion species of Morocco can be classified in the following groups:
italicum group
Diagnosis. Males: Tibial apophysis short, triangular, as wide or wider than long; median apophysis with basal part broader than triangular distal part; embolus without subterminal tooth, basal part often with ridges. Females: Epigyne without pit or slit-like apertures, with two parallel or converging chitinous sutures, limiting a square, trapezoid or triangular postero-median plate.
Species in Morocco. Zodarion isabellinum: (Simon, 1870) and Z. pallidum Denis, 1952.
elegans group
Diagnosis. Males: tibial apophysis 2–3 longer than wide, terminally recurved and with one or more lobes, teeth or grooves; median apophysis flat and compact, with medio-lateral incision; embolus oblique and straigth, with subterminal and terminal teeth. Females: Epigyne with deep, transverse pit, at posterior margin mostly with pockets.
Species in Morocco. Zodarion maculatum (Simon, 1870), Z. maghrebense sp. nov. and Zodarion valentii Bosmans, Loverre & Adante, 2019.
mostafai group
Diagnosis. This is a newly established group of which only Z. trianguliferum was previously known. Since this species is only known from the female, Z. mostafai sp. nov., with both sexes known, is selected to give a name to the new group.
Males with tibial apophysis strongly elongated, 3–4 times longer than wide, with terminal peculiar knob; median apophysis flat, with wide proximal part and pointed distal part; embolus without subterminal tooth (difference with elegans group), tip curved. Females: epigynes with paired pockets, with only posterior margin chitinised; spermathecae small, separated by more than four times their diameter.
Species in Morocco. Zodarion azrouense sp. nov., Z. ericorum sp. nov., Z. jeanclaudeledouxi sp. nov., Z. mostafai sp. nov., Z. ogeri sp. nov., Z. trianguliferum Denis, 1952 and Z. wesolowskae sp. nov.

Zodarion maculatum: Bosmans 1994: 127, figs 39–41, 103–104.
Remarks. The tube with the type of Zodarion variegatum includes a label Zodarion fusciventris, with Denis’ handwriting, but a species with this name has never been described. Moreover, the specimen fits completely Denis’ (1956) description and the locality is the same as the type locality of Z. variegatum, so it is obviously the holotype of Z. variegatum.
Examination of the holotype female of Z. variegatum and comparison with our material of Z. maculatum shows they are the same species. Denis’ excellent fig. 13 of the epigyne of Z. variegatum shows clearly the postero-median process in the epigynal pit, as mentioned in the diagnosis below.
Diagnosis. The species cannot be mistaken for any other species of the elegans group by the long, curved and terminally pointed tibial apophysis in the male (Fig. 34), and by the shape of the rounded epigynal pit with a posteromedian triangular process in the female (Fig. 50).

Figures 59–60, 70–73, 94–97
Etymology. The species is named after the beautiful city of Azrou in the Middle Atlas.
Diagnosis. Males differ from all other species of this group by the short, relatively thicker tip of the embolus, much longer and more curved in the other species. The distal part of the tibial apophysis is curved upwards and swollen, spoon-like, simply rounded in other species of the group. Females are recognized by the presence of a poorly chitinised antero-median epigynal pit, which is differently shaped in other species.
Description. Measurements (n=1): Male: total length 3.5; carapace 1.22 long, 0.88 wide. Female (n=2). Total length 3.5–4.7; prosoma 1.85–2.48 long, 1.30–1.54 wide. Colour (Figs 59–60): carapace dark violet brown, fovea and radiating striae darkened; legs: coxae white, contrasting with dark brown to black femora, femora II–IV whith basal part white; tibia brown, with pale lateral stripes; metatarsi and tarsi yellowish white; abdomen black with postero-dorsal, lateral and ventral white spots. Eyes: AM=1 (0.12); AL=0.89; PM=1.12; PL=0.83; a=0.61; b=d=0.22; c=1.61; MOQ: AW=0.81PW; L=0.88PW.
Male palp (Figs 70–73): tibial apophysis elongated, 3 times as long as wide, proximal part 4 times as long as distal part, slightly curved, distally widening and curved in dorso-lateral direction; tip rounded anteriorly, posteriorly bluntly pointed; median apophysis with wide proximal part and small, curved distal part; tip of embolus subterminally bent in anterior direction.
Epigyne (Figs 94–97): with large, shallow pit, occupying one third of epigyne’s width, anteriorly rounded, widening posteriorly, posterior margin unsclerotized; spermathecae very small, separated by more than 5 diameters.
Type material. Holotype Ƌ and paratype 1♀ from MOROCCO: Fès-Meknès, Azrou NE, 33°28’00’’N, 05°09’49’’W, 1400 m a.s.l., leg. R. Bosmans & J. Van Keer, 18.IV.2012 (litter and stones in Quercus ilex forest) (RBINS).

Figures 63, 78–81
Etymology. The species is dedicated to the late Jean-Claude Ledoux (†), a well-known French arachnologist and author of many papers on Mediterranean spiders.
Diagnosis. This species is recognized by the wide basal part of the tibial apophysis, suddenly narrowing into the distal part, a character shared with Z. mostafai sp. nov.. Both species differ from other members of this group by the larger embolar tooth, which is curved in the prolateral direction in Z. jeanclaudeledouxi sp. nov., while smaller and curved in the anterior direction in Z. mostafai sp. nov..
Description. Measurements: Male (n=1): total length 2.6; carapace 1.39 long, 1.01 wide. Colour (Fig. 63): as in Z. ericorum sp. nov.. Eyes: AM=1 (0.1); AL=0.62; PM=0.63; PL=0.75; a=0.5; b=d=0.25; c=1.62; MOQ: AW=0.81PW; L= 0.88PW.
Male palp (Figs 78–81): tibial apophysis elongated, proximal part wide, rectangular, 3 times longer than distal part, suddenly narrowing into distal part, curved in retrolateral direction, terminaly rounded; median apophysis with wide proximal part and somewhat smaller, curved distal part; tip of embolus distinctly curved in antero-prolateral direction.
Female: Unknown.

Figures 64–65, 82–85, 102–105
Etymology. The species is with pleasure and great love dedicated to Mostafa Bounouar (Rabat, Morocco), husband of the first author of this paper.
Diagnosis. For males, see Z. jeanclaudeledouxi sp. nov.. Females can be distinghuished from the other species of this group by the presence and the shape of a trapezoid knob in the anterior part of the epigyne, which is absent in the other species.
Description. Measurements: Male (n=3): total length 3.5–5.6; carapace 1.86–3.00 long, 1.2–2.2 wide. Female (n=2): total length 4.2–5.3; carapace 1.95–2.30 long, 1.25–1.55 wide. Colour (Figs 64–65): as in Z. ericorum sp. nov., but in males the tibiae are completely black and the pale part of legs more yellowish, and in the female only Ti IV with proximal part white. Eyes AM=1 (0.12); AL=PL=0.89; PM=0.63; a=0.63; b=0.2; c=0.16; d=0.32; MOQ: AW=0.93PW; L=0.96PW.
Male palp (Figs 82–85): tibial apophysis elongated, proximal part relatively wide compared to other species, nearly rectangular, distal part a short knob curved in retrolateral direction; median apophysis with trapezoid proximal part and small, pointed distal part; tip of embolus short, curved in antero-prolateral direction.
Epigyne (Figs 102–105): with anteromedian trapezoid structure; posterior margin of epigyne deeply incised; trapezoid structure covering 2 median pockets; spermathecae small, separated by 5 diameters.
