784D6052FFDBFF8AAFB5FC20FA18FBA7.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Ariadna differs from Gippsicola by the labium being narrowed distally (Figs 6 b, 8 b cf. fig. 1 c Giroti & Brescovit 2017), by the labrum lacking dorsal median setae and being longer than the labium (Fig. 13 b cf. 5 b Giroti & Brescovit 2017); by the presence of a basal transverse ridge on the chelicerae (Figs 8 d, 13 d, cf. fig. 5 a Giroti & Brescvoit 2017); by the posterior eyes being slightly recurved or straight (Figs 1 d, 3 d, 6 d cf. fig 1 a Giroti & Brescvoit 2017), by the presence of tubular invaginations on the posterior receptaculum (fig. 11 d Giroti & Brescovit 2018 cf. fig. 7 d Giroti & Brescvoit 2017) and by the tarsus of the female palp having five or more macrosetae (Fig. 39 d).	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W.

784D6052FFD0FF85AFB5FA2CFC07F95B.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Ariadna alta sp. nov. is most similar to A. amabilia sp. nov., A. segmentata and A. thylacinus sp. nov. It can be differentiated from these by the presence of a proventral dual row of macrosetae on tibia I of females (Fig. 6 f, 6 g cf. Figs 10 f, g; 28 f, g; 36 f, g); by the elevated, domed cephalothorax, being highest just posterior to the eye group (Fig. 6 c cf. Figs 10 c, 28 c, 36 c) and by the female genitalia, with the anterior receptaculum having three or four distinct anterior projections (Fig. 7 a – b cf. Figs 11 a – b, 29 a – b; 37 a – b). Ariadna alta sp. nov. has been recorded from the type locality of A. major Hickman 1929, Mount Hobbs, SE Tasmania. It is clearly distinguished from A. major by the presence of transverse abdominal chevrons in A. alta sp. nov. (Fig. 6 a), by the leg length ratio, which is II> I> III> IV in A. alta sp. nov., but is I> II> IV> III in A. major and by the overall larger size of A. major, which is 16 mm long, as opposed to 10.8 mm in A. alta sp. nov.	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W.

784D6052FFD3FF9EAFB5F8A9FC16FE51.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Ariadna amabilia sp. nov. is closest to A. alta sp. nov., A. segmentata and A. thylacinus sp. nov. It is differentiated from A. alta sp. nov. by the lack of a dual row of macrosetae proventrally on tibia I of females (Fig. 10 f, g cf. Fig. 5 f, g). It can be differentiated from A. segmentata by the overall shape of the pedipalp bulb, with a rounded square bulb which on lateral view is distinctly bulbous dorsally in A. amabilia sp. nov., but is elongate globular shaped in A. segmentata, and by the length and curvature of the embolus, which is elongate, smoothly curved and hooked in the apical portion in A. amabilia sp. nov., but is relatively broad and hooked at around the midpoint in A. segmentata (Fig. 9 a – c cf. Fig 27 a – c). The species can be distinguished from A. thylacinus sp. nov. by the sinuous apical section of the embolus, which is smoothly curved and hooked apically in A. amabilia sp. nov., whereas in A. thylacinus sp. nov. the embolus is sinuous apically; it can further be distinguished by the embolus arising from the bulb smoothly from the ventral edge of the bulb in A. amabilia sp. nov., whereas in A. thylacinus sp. nov. the basal section of the embolus arises from a distinct mound (Fig. 9 a – c cf. Fig. 35 a – c).	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W. (2022): A taxonomic revision of the tube-web spiders of the genus Ariadna (Araneae: Segestriidae) in Tasmania.

784D6052FFC8FF9DAFB5FDA7FE54FE2D.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of A. crypticola sp. nov. are most similar to A. ferrogrisea sp. nov., A. muscosa and A. subnubilum sp. nov.. It can be distinguished from A. ferrogrisea sp. nov. by its longer and more curved embolus and elongated bulb (Fig. 14 a, b cf. Fig. 16 a, b) and by the pattern of, and greater number of macrosetae on tibia and metatarsus of leg I of A. ferrogrisea sp. nov. (Fig. 13 f – h cf. Fig. 15 f – h). The species can be differentiated from A. muscosa by the more pronounced prolateral projection on the cymbium, by the pedipalp tibia, which is broader and shorter in A. crypticola sp. nov. than A. muscosa and by the embolus, which has a more defined apical hook in A. crypticola sp. nov. (Fig. 14 a – c cf. Fig. 25 a – c). It can be separated from A. subnubilum sp. nov. by the squarer pedipalp cymbium, with a less well defined prolateral extension of A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 14 c cf. Fig. 32 c), by the lack of a transverse abdominal pattern in A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 13 a cf. Fig. 31 a). The species can also be distinguished by the number of macrosetae in the preening comb of leg IV, being composed of five macrosetae in A. crypticola sp. nov., eight in A. ferrogrisea sp. nov., seven in A. muscosa and seven in A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 13 e cf. Figs 15 e, 24 e, 31 e).	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W.

(Figs 15 e, 17 e cf. Figs 13 e, 24 e, 31 e). It is further differentiated from A. muscosa by the shape of the pedipalp cymbium, which has a more pronounced prolateral extension in A. ferrogrisea sp. nov. (Fig. 16 c cf.

It is differentiated from A. clavata by its slenderer pedipalp tibia compared to the cymbium length and by the embolus, which is less hooked apically in A. fragilis sp. nov., than in A. clavata (Fig. 21 a, b cf. fig. 1 g, i Marsh et al. 2018). The species is differentiated from A. tigrina sp. nov. by its longer and slenderer pedipalp tibia (Fig. 21 a, b cf. Fig. 39 a, b), and by the pattern of macrosetae on the tibia and metatarsus of leg I, which is paired in A. fragilis sp. nov. (Fig. 20 f – h cf. Fig. 37 f – h).	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W. (2022): A taxonomic revision of the tube-web spiders of the genus Ariadna (Araneae: Segestriidae) in Tasmania.

The holotype for A. major was only available for examination through images provided to the authors, these images were not of publication quality. No mature representative specimens were present in the material examined, similar immature specimens were present, but due to variation in key diagnostic features between juveniles and mature specimens, these could not confidently be assigned to A. major. Specimens of A. alta sp. nov. were recorded from the same type locality as A. major (Mount Hobbs, south east Tasmania), but A. alta sp. nov. clearly differs from A. major (see diagnosis of A. alta sp. nov.,) and sympatry has been recorded for other Australian Ariadna (for example Marsh et al. 2018) and is frequent in the species described in this manuscript.	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W.

784D6052FFC4FF91AFB5F966FD0BFDE1.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Ariadna muscosa is closest to A. crypticola sp. nov., A. ferrogrisea sp. nov. and A. subnubilum sp. nov.. It can be differentiated from A. crypticola sp. nov. by the less pronounced prolateral projection on the cymbium, by the longer and thinner pedipalp tibia and by the embolus, which lacks a defined apical hook in A. muscosa (Fig. 25 a – c cf. Fig. 14 a – c); it can also be distinguished by having seven macrosetae in the preening comb on metatarsus IV, compared to five macrosetae in A. crypticola sp. nov. Ariadna muscosa can be distinguished from A. ferrogrisea by the pattern and lesser number of macrosetae on the tibia and metatarsus of leg I (Fig. 24 f – h cf. Fig. 15 f – h) and by the shape of the pedipalp cymbium, which has a more pronounced prolateral extension in A. ferrogrisea sp. nov. (Fig. 25 c cf. Fig. 16 c). The species can be differentiated from A. subnubilum sp. nov. by the lack of transverse abdominal markings in A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 24 a cf. Fig. 31 a); by the greater width compared to length of the pedipalp tibia of A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 25 a, b cf. Fig. 32 a, b) and supported by molecular sequencing, with an interspecific divergence of 11.6 % (Table 2).	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W.

784D6052FFC7FFADAFB5FD37FC9FFD71.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Ariadna segmentata is closest to A. alta sp. nov., A. amabilia sp. nov., and A. thylacinus sp. nov.. It is differentiated from these species by the presence of a longitudinal pale median mark anteriorly on the sternum (Fig. 26 b, 28 b cf. Figs 6 b, 8 b, 10 b, 33 b, 35 b). It can further be differentiated from A. amabilia sp. nov. and A. thylacinus sp. nov., by the rounded oblong bulb, with a relatively short and thick embolus, which is bent from its midpoint and by the cymbium with a well-defined prolateral extension (Fig. 27 a – c cf. Figs 9 a – c, 35 a – c), and from A. alta sp. nov. by the flatter, less domed carapace, when viewed laterally (Fig. 28 b cf. Fig. 5 c) and by the absence of a dual row of macrosetae prolaterally on tibia I (Fig. 28 f, g cf. Fig. 5 f, g). It can be distinguished from A. alta sp. nov. and A. amabilia sp. nov., by the form of the anterior receptaculum, which is unilobed and hooked apically (Fig. 29 a – b cf. Figs 7 a – b, 11 a – b).	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W. (2022): A taxonomic revision of the tube-web spiders of the genus Ariadna (Araneae: Segestriidae) in Tasmania.

784D6052FFFBFFA8AFB5F9CCFBECF92B.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific epithet is a Latin adjective, meaning ‘ somewhat overcast’ and refers to the mottled light and dark grey colour of the species’ abdomen.	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W.

784D6052FFFBFFA8AFB5F9CCFBECF92B.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Ariadna subnubilum sp. nov. is most similar to A. crypticola sp. nov., A. ferrogrisea sp. nov. and A. muscosa. Ariadna subnubilum sp. nov. is differentiated from A. crypticola sp. nov. by having a squarer cymbium, with a less well defined prolateral extension than in A. crypticola sp. nov. (Fig. 32 c cf. Fig. 14 c), and by the lack of a transverse abdominal pattern (Fig. 31 a cf. Fig. 13 a). It can be differentiated from A. ferrogrisea sp. nov. by the pattern and number of macrosetae on tibia and metatarsus of leg I, which are denser in A. ferrogrisea sp. nov. (Fig. 31 f-h cf. Fig. 15 f – h), by the lack of transverse abdominal markings in A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 31 a cf. Fig. 15 a) and by the shape of the pedipalp bulb, which is pyramidal in A. ferrogrisea sp. nov., but is rounded oblong in A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 32 a, b cf. Fig. 16 a, b). The species can be distinguished from A. muscosa by the lack of transverse abdominal markings in A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 31 a cf. Fig. 24 a); by the greater width compared to length of the pedipalp tibia of A. subnubilum sp. nov. (Fig. 32 a, b cf. Fig. 25 a, b) and molecular sequencing, with an interspecies divergence of 11.6 % (Table 2).	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W.

784D6052FFFEFFA5AFB5F978FB65FBD9.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Ariadna thylacinus sp. nov. is closest to A. alta sp. nov., A. amabilia sp. nov. and A. segmentata. It can be separated from A. segmentata by the male palp having a squared bulb, with a prominent rounded ventral projection which the embolus arises, and by the embolus arising from the dorso-central portion of the bulb (Fig. 35 a, b cf. Figs 9 a – c, 27 a – c). It is differentiated from A. alta sp. nov. by the lack of dual row of macrosetae proventrally on tibia I of females (Fig. 36 f, g cf. Fig. 6 f, g). It can be differentiated from A. amabilia sp. nov. by the oblong-square pedipalp bulb and the sinuous shape of the apical section of the embolus of A. thylacinus sp. nov., compared to the square bulb of A. amabilia sp. nov. and the smooth curve of the embolus apically (Fig. 35 a – c cf. Fig. 9 a – c). Ariadna tigrina sp. nov. is from the same type locality as A. thylacinus sp. nov., the two species can be differentiated by the shape of the pedipalp bulb, which is pyramidal in A. tigrina sp. nov., but rounded oblong in A. thylacinus sp. nov.; by the shape of the embolus, which is fine, smoothly curved and hooked apically in A. tigrina sp. nov., but is sinuous apically in A. thylacinus sp. nov. and by the pedipalp tibia, which is inflated in A. thylacinus sp. nov.

784D6052FFF3FFBEAFB5FB2FFB57FF55.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific epithet is an adjective meaning ‘ tigrine, striped’ and refers to the transverse pale and dark striations on this species’ abdomen.	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W. (2022): A taxonomic revision of the tube-web spiders of the genus Ariadna (Araneae: Segestriidae) in Tasmania. Zootaxa 5105 (2): 151-201, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5105.2.1
784D6052FFF3FFBEAFB5FB2FFB57FF55.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Ariadna tigrina sp. nov. is closest to A. abbreviata sp. nov., A. burchelli, A. clavata and A. fragilis sp. nov.,. It can be distinguished from A. abbreviata sp. nov. by lacking the row of three blunt macrosetae on metatarsus I of males (Fig. 37 f, g cf. Fig. 1 f, g). It can be differentiated from Ariadna burchelli by the presence of macrosetae on the tibia of the female (Fig. 39 f – h cf. plate 8, fig. 4 Hogg 1900). The species is distinguished from A. clavata by the number of macrosetae in the preening comb of leg IV, being seven macrosetae in A. tigrina sp. nov. and five in A. clavata (Figs 37 e, 39 e cf. figs 1 e, 2 h Marsh et al. 2018); by the number and pattern of macrosetae on the tibia and metatarsus of leg I of males and females (Figs 37 f – h, 39 f – h cf. figs 1 a, 2 a, b, d – f Marsh et al. 2018) and by molecular sequencing, with an interspecies divergence of 15.3 % (Table 2). Ariadna tigrina sp. nov., is differentiated from A. fragilis sp. nov. by the pattern of macrosetae on leg I of the tibia and metatarsus of males (Fig. 37 f – h cf. Fig. 20 f – h) and by the curvature of the embolus, which is more strongly hooked in A. tigrina sp. nov. (Fig. 38 a – c cf. Fig. 21 a – c). Ariadna thylacinus sp. nov. is from the same type locality as A. tigrina sp. nov., the two species can be differentiated by the shape of the pedipalp bulb, which is pyramidal in A. tigrina sp. nov., but rounded oblong in A. thylacinus sp. nov., by the shape of the embolus, which is fine, smoothly curved and hooked apically in A. tigrina sp. nov., but is sinuous apically in A. thylacinus sp. nov. and by the pedipalp tibia, which is inflated in A. thylacinus sp. nov. (Fig. 38 a – c cf. Fig. 35 a – c).	en	Marsh, Jessica R., Stevens, Mark I., Framenau, Volker W.
