Treatment

Colyttus View in CoL and Donoessus

Synonymy of these genera not accepted due to misinterpretation of structure of spermathecae, palps and color pattern by Zhang & Maddison (2015: 31) - compare Figs 38Q, 39R of Colyttus bilineatus Thorell, 1891 (type species) with Figs. 38P, 39Q of Donoessus nigriceps and D. striatus , for more documentation of relevant diversity see http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/q10-Dono.html. This results in following corrections:

Colyttus kerinci (Prószyński & Deeleman- Reinhold, 2012) = Donoessus kerinci Prószyński &

Deeleman-Reinhold, 2012 (return to the previous combination due to misinterpretation of diagnostic

characters of these genera),

Colyttus nigriceps (Simon, 1899) = Donoessus nigriceps (Simon, 1899) (return to the previous

combination due to misinterpretation of diagnostic characters of these genera),

Colyttus striatus (Simon, 1902) = Donoessus striatus (Simon, 1902) (return to the previous

combination due to misinterpretation of diagnostic characters of these genera).
