Remarks.

Rubrius paganus Simon 1902 was synonymised under Rubrius annulatus F.O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1899 by Lethinen (1967: 263) based on a ♂♀ " Rubrius paganus " held at the Paris Museum. Roth (1967: 332) redescribed Rubrius paganus from some specimens "(male lectotype, six female lectoparatypes, and two immature specimens from Valdiva, Chile, No. 18228)" at the MNHN. It is difficult to know if the specimens examined by Lethinen and Roth were part of the type series since the locality data are incomplete. Nonetheless, since Roth designated a lectotype for the species Rubrius paganus Simon 1902 from the Paris Museum.
