Theridion margaritum: Zhu, 1998: 177 , figs 113A-F (♂♀). Neottiura margarita: Yoshida, 2009a: 376 , figs 180-181 (♂♀).

MATERIAL EXAMINED. Russia: Primorskii krai, Lazo Reserve, Korpad' Gorge , 23–30. VI 2006, 1♂, coll. M. Smirnov ( ZMMU) .

NOTES. Previously this species has been reported from Kamenushka (Ussuriyskii District) based on female specimens ( Marusik, 1989). It is very similar to the West Palaearctic N. herbigrada (Simon, 1873) known from Madeira to Crimea and Israel ( WSC, 2016). Both species have a similarly shaped cymbium, and the female abdominal pattern comprises 7 dots on a white background. Neottiura herbigrada is also reported from East Asia (northeastern Eastern China and Korea) based exclusively on females. It is very likely that records of this species from Far East Asia refer to N. margarita . Here we provide diagnostic figures of the male of this species ( Figs 50–53 View Figs 50 - 53 ). The record of this species from the Lazo Reserve is the northernmost in the range.
