Type species. Enyo nitida Audouin, 1826
Comments. With 176 extant species, Zodarion is the largest genus within Zodariinae ( WSC, 2022) . Based on the diverse conformations in the copulatory organs of the species currently noted in this genus, Zodarion does not appear to be monophyletic ( Zamani & Marusik, 2021). Only Z. luctuosum (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1872) and Z. lutipes (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1872) from the Eastern Mediterranean are morphologically similar to the generotype ( Zamani & Marusik, 2021). 30 Zodarion species have been recorded so far in Turkey, although this number is slightly less than Greece (35) but higher than Azerbaijan (7), Bulgaria (14), Cyprus (5), Iran (4), and Israel (Nentwig et al 2022; Otto 2022; Zamani & Marusik 2022; Zamani et al. 2022; Zonstein & Marusik 2013).
