Diagnosis and description.

See Mikhailov (1995).

Composition and distribution.

According to Mikhailov (1995), the group includes only two species: C. japonicola Bösenberg & Strand, 1906 widespread from the Far East of Russia to the Philippines and Indonesia, and C. yasudai Ono, 1991, endemic to Hokkaido, Japan.

Comments.

Morphological characters and our unpublished molecular data (pers. obs.) strongly suggest a close relationship between C. japonicola and C. riparia L. Koch, 1866 (assigned to the Clubiona lutescens group by Mikhailov (1995)).
