            <p> Selenops Latreille, 1819</p>
            <p> Selenops Latreille, 1819: 579 . Type species:  Selenops radiatus Latreille, 1819 . Hypoplatea MacLeay, 1839: 6. Type species: Hypoplatea celer MacLeay, 1839. First synonymized by Walckenaer (1842: 457). </p>
            <p> Orops Benoit, 1968: 116 . Type species:  Selenops littoricola Strand, 1913 . First synonymized by Corronca (1996a: 60). </p>
            <p> Diagnosis.  Selenops differs from other selenopid genera by the arrangement of the eyes. The anterior median eyes (AME), posterior median eyes (PME) and anterior lateral eyes (ALE) aligned or slightly recurved (Fig. 88 D), with the PME equal or subequal in size to AME. Leg II&gt; leg IV; tibiae and metatarsi I­II with v2­2 ­2 (Fig. 88 E) and v2­2 spines respectively. Male palp with a retrolateral tibial apophysis (RTA), with a dorsal part (dra) and a ventral part (vra); RTA usually not flattened with dra&gt; vra. Median apophysis (am) small and simple with one or two branches. Female epigynum with central area welldeveloped, with distinct lateral lobes and epigynal pockets bigger than genital openings. </p>
            <p>Description. Prosoma brown to reddish brown, usually with dark spots. Chelicerae brown, normally with black or grey spots. Labium and sternum usually paler in colour. Anterior part of opisthosoma truncated and grey or yellowish with brown or black dorsal marks; several species with a distinct colour pattern on dorsal opisthosoma (Fig. 88 B). Venter of the opisthosoma yellowish, without markings; lateral­posterior margins with dark spots, lines or bands. Some species with tufts of white hairs posteriorly on the opisthosoma. AME, ALE and PME in one line, PLE largest, situated on a postero­lateral tubercle; ALE the smallest. Prosoma wider than long (Fig. 88 A), clypeus &lt;AME. Chelicerae with distinct lateral condyles and cheliceral furrows with three prolateral and two retrolateral teeth (Fig. 88 F). Labium as wide as or wider than long. Sternum sub­circular, sometimes slightly bifurcated posteriorly (Fig. 88 C). Palps usually with tibia longer than patella. Legs long, laterigrade and with second pair usually longer than the fourth. Tarsi two­clawed, with one claw slightly pectinated, the other generally smooth. Trichobothria on tibiae, metatarsi and tarsi. Leg spination: femora I­IV with d1.1.1; tibiae I­II with v2.2.2 and metatarsi I­II v2.2, males normally with many more spines than the females. Dorsal part of male RTA in a few cases with two branches or hypertrophied. Petiolus (sclerite of basal haematodocha) well developed, triangular or elongated; subtegulum with 1­5 anelli and with terminal depression, the latter with one interlocking prolateral projection. Embolus short and broad or long and slender, but always with a large sclerotized conductor covering a large part of it. The form of the conductor varies between species from T­shaped and subtriangular to falciform. Median apophysis with one or two branches. Epigynum with middle field well developed or reduced. Middle field consists of a septum or a depression, in which the lateral lobes of the epigynum may reach each other or not at the midline. Secondary epigynal pockets present. Spermathecae usually simple, in several cases complex.</p>
            <p> Species inquirendae. The type specimens of  Selenops fugitivus Walckenaer, 1837 ,  S. modestellus Strand, 1907 and  S. nanus Strand, 1907 were destroyed during the two World Wars and the species cannot be identified from the original descriptions (Benoit 1968). The above mentioned species are not included in this study. </p>

            <p> Diagnosis. Males of  S. annulatus are easily identified by the following combination of characters: median apophysis of the male palp with transparent branch much higher than the sclerotized one and distinct shape of the tibial apophysis and of the tip of the conductor (Figs. 7­8).  S. annulatus resembles  S. radiatus in having a lateral projection on the tegulum but in the latter species the projection is larger with a straight external margin. The females are distinguished by both the shape of the middle field and the spermathecae (Figs. 4­5).  S. annulatus females resemble  S. intricatus in the shape of the middle field, but in  S. intricatus it is more rhomboidal and longer than wide (Fig. 32). </p>
            <p>Female. The female was described by Simon (1876) and redescribed by Benoit (1968). The colour pattern of opisthosoma is shown in Fig. 6 and the epigynum and spermathecae in Figs. 4­5.</p>

            <p> Diagnosis. The females of  S. ansieae are identified by the unique shape of the middle field of the epigynum and the spermathecae (Figs. 9­10). It resembles  S. ilcuria sp. nov. (Figs. 29­31) in the shape of the depression on the epigynum, but the lateral lobes differ and the lateral sides of the depression are more straight in  S. ilcuria than in  S. ansieae . </p>

            <p> Diagnosis. The females of  S. brachycephalus are easily confused with  S. tenebrosus Lawrence (Figs. 69­71). However, the epigynum differs in  S. brachycephalus having the lateral lobes of the epigynum fused medially and the central depression of the epigynum being small and subquadrangular (Fig. 12). The form of the spermathecae (Fig. 13) also differs between the two species. </p>

            <p> Diagnosis.  Selenops camerun seems closest to  S. lobatse Corronca (Figs. 49­50). The females of this species can be distinguished by the shape of the epigynum, with the lateral lobes situated close to the median line (Fig. 16), and by the shape of the middle field and spermathecae (Figs. 16­17). </p>

The females can be distinguished by the shape of the elongated or rhomboidal middle field that is always longer than wide in  S. intricatus and by the narrow shape of the spermathecae (Figs. 32­33). In the males of  S. intricatus the shape of the tibial apophysis of the palp is similar to that of  S. radiatus and  S. annulatus , but in  S. intricatus the branches are subequal in length (Fig. 34) and the tip of the conductor is wider than in  S. annulatus . </p>

The females have the lateral lobes of the epigynum well­developed with posterior projections (Fig. 43).

            <p> Diagnosis. In  S. lumbo the shape of the conductor resembles that of  S. radiatus (Fig. 54) and the shape of the tibial apophysis resembles that of  S. annulatus Simon (Figs. 7­8). However, the shape of the median apophysis differs from both species. The median apophysis is characterized by the large size of both branches; one of them is slender and well sclerotized and the other broad (Figs 54­55). The females of  S. lumbo resembles  S. viron sp. nov. in the general shape of the epigynum but the position and shape of the pockets of the epigynum and the spermathecae differ. In  S. lumbo , the epigynal pockets open on the middle line of the epigynum and the genital openings are wider than in  S. viron (Fig. 51). </p>
