PARATYPE: 1 ♀, from same locality, collected together with the holotype. TYPE MATERIAL EXAMINED FOR COMPARISON: MNHNP AR 12101. A vial labeled as “ # 6421 Streptosphaenus culminicola (Diplocephalus c.), Pic du Midi, E. Simon ”, contains 3 Ƌ and 1 ♀ (a carapace and an abdomen, separated). Most probably, the female was placed into the syntype series later, as in fact Simon (1884) described D. culminicola only from males, and a female was described much later by Denis (1953). Denis’s illustrations of the epigyne do not correspond to the epigyne of the female from Paris Museum, so the female in vial AR 12101 may not belong to D. culminicola.	en	Tanasevitch, Andrei V.

Legs pale brown. Leg I 2.17 long (0.60 + 0.20 + 0.52 + 0.50 + 0.35), IV 2.29 long (0.65 + 0.20 + 0.60 + 0.52 + 0.32). Chaetotaxy: 2.2.1.1, spines length on TiI-III about 0.3 - 0.5 diameter of segment, on TiIV about diameter or a bit longer. TmI 0.43. Metatarsus IV without trichobothrium. Palp (Figs 8 - 12): Cymbium with a long, pointed, slightly curved prolateral outgrowth. Paracymbium relatively small, hook-shaped. Distal suprategular apophysis like a long, narrow, slightly curved band, pointed distally. Embolic division with two distal anterior radical processes almost equal in size to each other. Embolus relatively short and thick. Abdomen 0.87 long, 0.62 wide, grey. Female. Total length 2.00. Carapace 0.80 long, 0.60 wide. Chelicerae 0.35 long. Leg I 2.09 long (0.60 + 0.17 + 0.50 + 0.47 + 0.35), IV 2.21 long (0.65 + 0.22 + 0.57 + 0.47 + 0.30). Length of spines on legs about of 1 - 1.5 diameter of segment. TmI 0.47. Abdomen 1.27 long, 1.00 wide. Epigyne typical for representatives of Araeoncus Simon, 1884, with well visible translucent oblong receptacles as in Fig. 20. Body and leg coloration, as well as chaetotaxy, as in male. TAXONOMIC REMARKS: The new species seems to be most similar to A. cypriacus sp. n., but differs well by the shorter and thicker embolus, as well as by the shape of the anterior radical processes. The female can be easily distinguished by the peculiar shape of the well visible translucent oblong receptacles. The male carapace is very similar to that of Diplocephalus culminicola Simon, 1884, the palp of which has not yet been illustrated. The shape of the palpal tibia of D. culminicola is very similar to that of Dactylopisthes mirificus (Georgescu, 1976), and to the representatives of Archaraeoncus Tanasevitch, 1987, but the palpal conformation of D. culminicola is fully corresponding to that of Diplocephalus Bertkau, 1883.	en	Tanasevitch, Andrei V.

Noteworthy, a male from Euboea has the embolus of intermediate size, which is a bit shorter than in males from Thessalie or Epirus, but still longer than in the Italian and Romanian populations. Thus, the systematic position of C. aff. silvestris from Greece is problematic.	en	Tanasevitch, Andrei V.

03FA87DBFF8846212D9CABB4D2A520DF.taxon	discussion	REMARKS: E. cristatopalpus belongs to the psychrophila - group (sensu Crosby & Bishop, 1928), containing at least a dozen of very similar species, which is characterized by a high level of infraspecific variability of somatic and genitalic structures FIGS 35 - 47 Apex of embolic division of Erigone cristatopalpus Simon, 1884 (35 - 38), of E. zographica Crosby & Bishop, 1928, holotype (AMNH) (39 - 41), different aspects, of E. viabilis Chamberlin & Ivie, 1933, holotype (AMNH) (42), of E. remota L. Koch, 1869 (43), of E. whymperi O. P. - Cambridge, 1877 (44), of E. psychrophila Thorell, 1872 (45), and of E. tirolensis L. Koch, 1872 (46, 47). (35, 36) Specimen from Foppolo, Italy, different aspects. (37) Specimen from Lake Tignes, France. (38) Specimen from Toggia, Italy. (43) Specimen from Polar Urals, Russia (CAT). (44) Specimen from Qooqqut, Greenland (ZMMU). (45) Specimen from Severnyi Island of Novaya Zemlya, Russia (ZMMU). (46, 47) Specimens from West Chukotka, Chaun River mouth (ZMMU). that caused numerous synonyms in the group. Strong variability was found in body size, teeth arrangement on the carapace, chelicerae and palpal femur; length of the palpal tibia; size of the dorsal apophysis (sensu Muster & Hänggi, 2009) and presence / absence / size of a tubercle on the ventral lobe (= ventral apophysis auct.) of the palpal tibia; as well as shape of the dorsal plate (= central capsule, median plate auct.) and direction of the receptacula, see, e. g., Tanasevitch & Koponen (2007), Muster & Hänggi (2009). In contrast, shape of the embolus (see Figs 35 - 47), as well as of mesal and posterior tooth (sensu Crosby & Bishop, 1928) in the embolic division are more or less stable, show little variability and might be a good character for reliable distinction from similar species. The similarity and high level of variability in epigynes makes identification of females in the psychrophila - group very problematic. A spectrum of the variations mentioned above is represented for E. cristatopalpus: compare Figs 27 - 31, 35 - 42, 48 - 52. Many more examples from the Siberian material will be shown and discussed elsewhere (Tanasevitch, in preparation). The detailed comparison of the type with extensive comparative material of E. cristatopalpus, E. viabilis, E. zographica from different part of Eurasia and the Nearctic has shown that all these undoubted belong to a single widespread species, E. cristatopalpus. Despite variation in palpal and body characters, the conformation of the embolic division is quite uniform throughout the whole range of the species. The small differences in shape of the embolus or mesal tooth are often a result of observation in different orientation. The structure of the epigyne is also uniform in general, but can be easily confused with that of E. psychrophila Thorell, 1872 and E. whymperi. Erigone cristatopalpus is most similar to the Arctic E. whymperi and differs by the presence of a deep and wide notch in the embolic division (arrow in Figs 32, 33 cf. figs 9 - 14 in Tanasevitch & Koponen, 2007).	en	Tanasevitch, Andrei V.

Palp (Figs 65 - 69): Cymbium without posterodorsal outgrowth. Paracymbium U-shaped, posterior and anterior pockets each with a weakly sclerotized tooth. Radix with a spear-shaped outgrowth at base of lamella characteristica. Lamella characteristica like a slightly curved band slantwise cut at end. Embolus with a narrow carina and poorly expressed membraneous thumb. Fickert’s gland relatively large, spherical. Abdomen crumpled, dark grey. Female unknown. TAXONOMIC REMARKS: This species is similar to I. cypriot sp. n., but well distinguishable by the peculiar shape of the lamella characteristica and the paracymbium. I. cypriot sp. n. and I. turok sp. n. differ from all (?) other known congeners by the presence of a spear-shaped outgrowth on the radix. The same kind of the radical apophysis is present in the representatives of the Central Asian genus Tchatkalophantes Tanasevitch, 2001.	en	Tanasevitch, Andrei V.

Abdomen 1.43 long, 0.93 wide, abdomen pattern as in Fig. 77. Epigyne (Figs 78 - 81): Pseudoscape divided into two lobes by a deep notch. Distal part of scape globular, middle part short, proximal part (= proscape), as well as lateral lobes and stretcher totally reduced. Entrance grooves passing through middle part of scape, then entering backwall and running through lateral walls to the receptacles. TAXONOMIC REMARKS: The species differs from other congeners by the totally reduced proscape and the presence of a pseudoscape. The epigyne bears some resemblance to that of the representatives of Lidia Saaristo & Marusik, 2004. In the absence of the corresponding male it is difficult to unambiguously place the species into any genus.	en	Tanasevitch, Andrei V.

03FA87DBFF9E460E2D9CAD4CD08523A8.taxon	description	DESCRIPTION: Male paratype. Total length 4.35. Carapace 2.00 long, 1.55 wide, reddish brown, with a narrow grey margin. Chelicerae 0.75 long. Leg I 6.90 long FIGS 84 - 86 Stemonyphantes serratus sp. n., Ƌ paratype, from Uludağ, Turkey. (84, 85) Metatarsus I and II, respectively. (86) Right palp, retrolateral view. (1.75 + 0.65 + 1.60 + 1.75 + 1.15), IV 7.45 long (2.00 + 0.55 + 2.00 + 1.90 + 1.00). Chaetotaxy: FeI: 2 - 1 - 0 - 0; II-IV: 2 - 0 - 0 - 0; TiI-II: 2 - 1 - 1 - 4, III-IV: 2 - 1 - 1 - 3 (4 - 2); MtI-II: 0 - 0 - 0 - 2, III- IV: 0 - 1 - 1 - 4. MtI twice as thick as MtII, with a narrow groove on dorsal side (Figs 84 & 85). Metatarsus I-IV with a trichobothrium. TmI 0.28. Palp (Figs 86 - 92): Upper branch of cymbium slightly curved. Paracymbium relatively small, J-shaped, with a row of long stout spines on upper edge. Anterior tegular apophysis with hook-shaped apex and saw-toothed lower edge distally. Radix flattened, with a thin outgrowth anteriorly. Radical apophysis situated near base of embolus, long and stout, highly sclerotized. Embolus slightly shorter than radix, flattened. Abdomen 2.50 long, 1.55 wide, dorsally grey, with a dark median band flanked by paramedian spots connected to it with thin bands. FIGS 87 - 92 Stemonyphantes serratus sp. n., Ƌ paratype, from Uludağ, Turkey. (87) Left palp, retrolateral view. (88) Paracymbium, lateral view. (89, 90) Tegulum, prolateral and retrolateral view, respectively. (91, 92). Embolic division, different aspects. TAXONOMIC REMARKS: The new species is similar to S. abantensis Wunderlich, 1978 and S. agnatus Tanasevitch, 1990, but differs well by its curved upper branch of the cymbium, as well as by its saw-shaped anterior tegular apophysis. S. serratus sp. n. together with S. abantensis, S. agnatus and S. montanus Wunderlich, 1978 form the abantensis species-group, which is characterised by a bifid cymbium, a relatively short and stout embolus, the presence of a spear-shaped apophysis on the radix at the base of the embolus (except for S. montanus). The abantensis species-group is restricted to the Anatolian-Caucasian region.	en	Tanasevitch, Andrei V.

03FA87DBFFA1460C2D8DA98DD09C219C.taxon	discussion	REMARKS: The lamella characteristica in a male from the Peloponnese, Greece differs in shape from those illustrated in the literature (Simon, 1884, 1929; Helsdingen et al., 1977). A small material of T. herbicola from Tuscany and Corsica has shown that the shape of the lamella characteristica is really somewhat variable, but the main reason of variation for such differences lies in the different angles at which the specimens were illustrated. The shape of the posterior median plate of the epigyne is indeed different in two samples from the same population. This species is here reported for the first time for the Greek fauna.	en	Tanasevitch, Andrei V.
