Thiania , Thianitara and Nicylla

Distinct differences in structure of spermathecae, ducts and palps are overlooked by Zhang J. & Maddison 2015: 30, also external appearance of Thiania and Thianitara are different, the latter being flatter, with carapace broader and legs I proportionally longer – see Figs 38 D-F, 39S-T. Therefore:

Thiania sundevalli (Thorell, 1890) = Nicylla sundevalli Thorell, 1890 (original combination restituted, compare Figs 38D with 38E)

Thiania spectrum ( Simon, 1903) = Thianitara spectrum Simon, 1903 (original combination restituted, compare Figs 38F with 38E, 39S with 39T)

Thiania thailandica (Prószyński & Deeleman-Reinhold, 2012) = Thianitara thailandica Prószyński & Deeleman-Reinhold, 2012 (original combination restituted, likewise the above, compare Prószyński & Deeleman- Reinhold, 2012: 58, f 183-186).
