TEGENARIA LAPICIDINARUM SPASSKY, 1934

Tegenaria lapicidinarum Spassky, 1934: 2–4 , pl. 1, figs 3–5.

Tegenaria spasskyi Guryanova, 1992: 13 , figs 1.1–2, 2.1–2; synonymized by Kovblyuk (2004).

Types

Lectotype. Russia: Rostov Oblast, Novocherkassk , ♂, vii.1914, Spasskaja . Lectotype designation by Kovblyuk (2004).

Description

A detailed description, including measurements and figures, was provided by Kovblyuk (2004).

Distribution

Reported from Eastern Europe.

Discussion

Recently, a detailed redescription of this species was provided by Kovblyuk (2004), with drawings of male and female genitalia. Kovblyuk showed that the body measurements, including the size of legs and male palp, vary considerably. As a result of comparing this species with Teg. mirifica Thaler, 1987 , and Teg. taurica Charitonov, 1947 , he stated that the spination pattern of legs is insufficient to distinguish Tegenaria species.
