03D387C2FFCAF4527BA9D3CAFD528319.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis The male copulatory organ of S. karigiri sp. nov., is most similar to that of S. triapiculus Yang, W. Liu, P. Liu & Peng, 2017, from which it can be distinguished by the following combination of characters: tibia with four apophyses including one dorsal apophysis (three in S. triapiculus, and without dorsal apophysis); embolus with broad base and pointed tip in ventral view (narrow, slender and relatively longer in S. triapiculus) (cf. Figs 5 D – F, 7 A – C with Yang et al. 2017: figs 9 b – c, 10 a – b). The female genitalia are most similar to those of S. abramovi Logunov & Azarkina, 2008 from which they can be easily distinguished by the laterally aligned copulatory openings (anteriorly aligned in S. abramovi); spermathecae globular and separated (ovoid and contiguous in S. abramovi) (cf. Figs 5 D – F, 7 D – E with Logunov & Azarkina 2008: figs 55 – 56).	en	Caleb, John T. D., Sudhin, Puthoor Pattammal, Nisha, B.

03D387C2FFCAF4527BA9D3CAFD528319.taxon	etymology	Etymology The specific epithet ‘ karigiri ’, a noun in apposition, is derived from the popular name of Devarayanadurga Hill, near which the species was discovered.

03D387C2FFC4F4557828D70CFEBC83EF.taxon	discussion	Remarks This species was described based on a single female collected from Gangasagar Island, near Kapilmuni Ashram, West Bengal. The original description is too short and the illustrations are sketchy, thus not allowing recognition of the species. However, examination of the holotype kept in the Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata, allowed clarification on the taxonomic status of this species. Detailed examination of the holotype revealed that it is identical to Phaeacius fimbriatus. The epigynal structure with large oval windows and a broad median septum; pear-shaped spermathecae placed close to each other along the posterior margin; anterior portion with sclerotized loops of copulatory ducts and lateral membranous pockets with wrinkled appearance unambiguously match with P. fimbriatus (cf. Fig. 8 A – C with Wanless 1981: fig. 4 d). Marpissa gangasagarensis is therefore treated as a junior synonym of P. fimbriatus.	en	Caleb, John T. D., Sudhin, Puthoor Pattammal, Nisha, B.
