Spadera Peckham & Peckham, 1894 [combination reinstated]

Intensive revision of the genus Pseudicius s. l. by Prószynski (1987: 51, 1992a, b, 1994, 2002, 2016) confirmed similarities of Spadera unica to some PSEUDICIINES (especially Rudakius spp ) in the general plan of palp, but also disclosed significant differences, especially in tibial apophysis shape, incompatible with other Pseudicius s. l. It is apparently separate genus. Therefore:

Pseudicius unicus (Peckham & Peckham, 1894) = Spadera unica Peckham & Peckham, 1894

(restituted original combination, see documentation Fig. 19K, compared with Fig. 19J, also file:
