Panamomops sulcifrons (Wider, 1834)

( Figs 7, 8 )

Material: Izera Mts. , Izera Valley by the stream Kobyła, 50°50'11"N, 15°22'26"E, 835 m a.s.l., sweep net, 1 female, 9 May 2010; a transition mire on a mild slope, by the spruce forest .

Distr ib utio n: P. sulcifrons is widespread, but not a common species. Recording this spider in Poland was expected, as P. sulcifrons was known – among many others – from Germany, Slovakia and the Czech Republic (van Helsdingen 2016), including a few records from the Giant Mountains ( Kůrka & Szymkowiak 2007) and the Izera Mountains ( Kůrka 1999).

Remar ks: The female may be readily identified by the form of epigyne ( Fig. 8 ).
