Laufeia View in CoL , Junxattus , Lechia and Orcevia , also Euophrys

Some species transferred recently to the genus Laufeia by Zhang J. & Maddison 2015: 30 (type species Laufeia aenea Simon, 1889 ) require restitution to their original genera because of misinterpreted morphological characters. Compare figures ( Fig. 38 A-C). Also body shape and color pattern are somewhat different ( Figs 39 J-L), For more diversities see also original diagnostic drawings in relevant publications and/or their copies in http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/ Euophryinae _clas-2.html http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/q10-Lauf.html, http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/q10-Junx.html, http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/q10-Orc.html, http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/q10-Lech.html. Fine details of embolus and associated structures in these species are strikingly different, epigyne are different, internal structures of epigyne in Jumxattus, Lechia and Orcevia are strikingly different and exclude possibility of congeneric status of species. Unfortunately epigyne of the protected single known type specimen of Laufeia aenea could not be cleared, relevant drawings by Zhang and Maddison are so diagrammatized that cannot be even taken into consideration. Different case is Euophrys minuta Prószynski, 1992 whose epigyne and its internal structures disagree with that of the type species of Euophrys but resembles closely Lechia squamata Żabka, 1985 (compare Figs 32K, L, 32K, 38A 1 View Figure 1 ). Therefore:

Laufeia daiqini (Prószyński & Deeleman- Reinhold, 2012) = Junxattus daiqini Prószyński &

Deeleman-Reinhold, 2012 (original combination restituted, for documentation compare Figs 38B,

39J with Figs 38A, 39K, also html http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/q10-Lauf.html),

Laufeia kuloni (Prószynski & Deeleman-Reinhold, 2012) = Orcevia kuloni Prószynski & Deeleman-

Reinhold 2012 (original combination restituted, for documentation compare Figs. 34C), [likewise

congeneric species of these genera: - Laufeia keyserlingi (Thorell, 1890) = Orcevia keyserlingi

(Thorell, 1890), Laufeia eucola (Thorell, 1890) = Orcevia eucola (Thorell, 1890) , Laufeia perakensis

(Simon, 1901) = Orcevia perakensis (Simon, 1901) , Laufeia proszynskii Song, Gu & Chen, 1988 =

Orcevia proszynskii (Song, Gu & Chen, 1988) - compare relevant diagnostic drawings, copied in

http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/q10-Orc.html],

Laufeia squamata ( Żabka, 1985) View in CoL = Lechia squamata Żabka, 1985 View in CoL (original combination restituted,

for documentation of epigyne and its internal structures see Fig. 38A 1 View Figure 1 and

http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae/q10-Lech.html,

Euophrys minuta Prószynski, 1992 View in CoL ) = Lechia minuta ( Prószynski, 1992) View in CoL comb. n. (transfer based on

similarities in epigyne and its internal structure with Lechia squamata Żabka, 1985 View in CoL , for

documentation see Figs 32L, compare it with type species of Euophrys Fig. 32K and Lechia

squamata Fig. 39K).
