COMMENTS. Agelenopsis is a Nearctic genus.A. potteri is known to be distributed from Pacific to Atlantic coasts of North America [ Chamberlin & Ivie, 1941] as well as intro duced in Kirghizia [ Zonstein et al., 1996], It has been also introduced in the M aritime Province from western USA. First male was found less than a hundred meter from “American V illage”, built for employers o f American Consulate and trade center in the vicinity o f Vladivostok.
There seems to be two species in Nearctic treated under the same name. W ithin 3 males studied from W ashington State (see material) two are similar as illustrated by Chamber lin & Ivie [1941] while male from, Jefferson Co, is different and has similar palp as specimens from the Maritime Province (with wider course o f embolus).
