Pardosa lugubris group

MATERIAL. — Chemin de Gaudissard, stream, 1230 m,‰ 1.VII.2017, Isaia, Mammola & Milano leg., 2 ♀, coll. MI; La Salce, mixed forest of Populus and Pinus, 1406 m, 01.VII.2017, Isaia, Mammola & Milano leg., 1 ♀, coll. MI ; Peiroulier, broadleaved forests, 1357 m, 01.VII.2017, Isaia, Mammola & Milano leg., 3 ♀, coll. MI .

MACROHABITAT. — Riparian habitats, mixed forests, broadleaved forests.

NOTE. — The identification of species within the lugubris group based on morphological characters is hardly feasible. In particular, even with a certain degree of uncertainty due to potential species co-occurrence, females can only be identified when collected in association with male. Nevertheless, the species of this group are reproductively isolated, so the only reliable means of separating them at present is their courtship behaviour (Nentwig et al. 2018).
