Abstract Patelloceto Lyle & Haddad, 2010 is a small genus of dark sac spiders from the Afrotropical region, diagnosed by very distinct morphology of the genitalia, males with femoral, patellar, and tibial apophyses, females with a broad membranous median septum separating the small lateral spermathecae, and long, oblique, lateral epigynal hoods flanking copulatory openings. Here, two new species of Patelloceto are described from Kenya, from material collected by John and Frances Murphy almost half a century ago. Both new species are diagnosed and illustrated, an updated map of the distribution of the genus is provided, as well as an updated key to species of the genus. The number of Patelloceto species is increased from three to five, and the number of trachelid spiders recorded from Kenya is increased from four to six.

Abstract A new palpimanid genus, Sceliraptor gen. n., and two new species, S. murphiorum gen. n. et sp. n. (♂; type species) and S. jaegeri gen. n. et sp. n. (♂), are diagnosed and described from Kenya. In the shape of the anterior part of the carapace, and the structure of the eye group and legs, the new genus seems to be related to the chedimine genera Scelidocteus Simon, 1907, Sceliscelis Oketch & Li, 2020 and, especially, to Sarascelis Simon, 1893; it reliably differs from them in the structure of a gently and gradually descending posterior part of the carapace and by a very deep and narrow slit-like thoracic fovea (compared to a respectively sharply sloping posterior carapace and a wider fovea in the related genera). Additionally, the male palp structure in Sceliraptor gen. n. species is distinct from that of all the related genera. The two newly described species can be distinguished by the palp structure, configuration of the embolus and supporting structures of the bulb, and by the shape of abdominal sclerites. Distribution records of Sarascelis chaperi Simon, 1887, Scelidocteus vuattouxi Jézéquel, 1964, and Sceliscelis marshi Oketch & Li, 2020 are updated.
[摘要]掌类动物Sceliraptor gen. n.一新属和S. murphiorum gen. n. et sp. n.(♂;型种)和S. jaegeri gen. n. et sp. n.(♂)，在肯尼亚被诊断和描述。从甲壳前部的形状、眼群和腿的结构来看，新属似乎与chedimine属(Scelidocteus Simon, 1907)、scelidocelis Oketch & Li, 2020，尤其是Sarascelis Simon, 1893)有关;它与它们的不同之处在于甲壳后部缓慢而逐渐下降的结构，以及一个非常深而狭窄的狭缝状胸椎中央窝(与相关属中分别有陡峭的后甲壳和更宽的中央窝相比)。此外，龙属的雄性触须结构与所有相关属不同。这两个新描述的物种可以通过触须结构，栓子的配置和球的支撑结构以及腹部硬膜的形状来区分。更新了Sarascelis chaperi Simon(1887)、Scelidocteus vuattouxi jsamzsamuel(1964)和Sceliscelis marshi Oketch & Li(2020)的分布记录。

Abstract New faunistic and taxonomic data are provided for 15 families of Iranian spiders. Two lycosid species, Alopecosa murphyorum sp. n. (♂, Semnan Province) and Alopecosa robertsi sp. n. (♂, Zanjan Province), are described as new to science. Nine species are recorded from Iran for the first time, and 182 new provincial records are provided for 53 species. Among new distributional data, the first confirmed record of the family Leptonetidae in Iran, representing its easternmost record in the West Palaearctic, is provided, as well as a redescription of the recently described Evippa amitaii Armiach Steinpress, Alderweireldt, Cohen, Chipman & Gavish-Regev, 2021 (Lycosidae), and illustrations for the examined type material of Evippa luteipalpis Roewer, 1955 (Lycosidae). Two species, Aulonia albimana (Walckenaer, 1805) (Lycosidae) and Tetragnatha javana (Thorell, 1890) (Tetragnathidae) are removed from the list of Iranian spiders, while Piratula insularis (Emerton, 1885) (Lycosidae) is removed from the list of Turkish spiders. Furthermore, Steatoda paykulliana (Walckenaer, 1806) (Theridiidae) is recorded from India for the first time. The newly described and some other species representing new country or provincial records are illustrated.

Abstract The spider family Pholcidae includes several species that have followed humans to other continents and around the world. Negative impacts of these species on the local faunas have never been reported. Here, we present results of a short collecting trip to Galápagos in 2019, focusing on two species that have been introduced to the archipelago by humans and whose spread appears correlated with, if not causally linked to, the decline or disappearance of two native species occupying the same micro-habitats: 1) the local abundance of the introduced Modisimus culicinus (Simon, 1893) appears negatively correlated with the abundance of the native Galapa bella (Gertsch & Peck, 1992), and 2) the recently introduced Smeringopus pallidus (Blackwall, 1858) is now abundant in caves where a few decades ago the native Aymaria jarmila (Gertsch & Peck, 1992) was present. The last species was not found in any of the six caves visited on Santa Cruz Island in 2019, suggesting that it may be seriously threatened. In addition, we present new records of Pholcidae from Galápagos and re-emphasize the need to reconsider the distinction between the two epigean Aymaria species on Galápagos: A. conica (Banks, 1902) and A. insularis (Banks, 1902).

Abstract The paper is the first attempt to summarize and analyse the scientific legacy of the notable British arachnologist John Alan Murphy (1922–2021) based on his publications and archival materials available at the Manchester Museum, UK. It presents a brief biography of J. Murphy, a critical analysis of his publications, particularly of his three substantial books, details of field trips undertaken with his wife Frances Murphy (1926–1995) in over 45 years and a short description of the rich, worldwide spider collection assembled by John and Frances. The paper is richly illustrated by photos obtained from colleagues who personally knew John Murphy and copies of archival items from the Manchester Museum.

Abstract Spiders of genus Zelanda Özdikmen, 2009 are represented by six species from New Zealand: Z. erebus (L. Koch, 1873), Z. elongata (Forster, 1979), Z. kaituna (Forster, 1979), Z. obtusa (Forster, 1979), Z. miranda (Forster, 1979), and Z. titirangia (Ovtsharenko, Fedoryak & Zakharov, 2006). These species are revised, redescribed, and illustrated. The new genus Avstroneulanda gen. n. is described. Both genera appear to represent the sister groups of the taxa that are characterized by the strongly procurved posterior eye row, the large and flattened posterior median eyes of rhomboid or irregular shape, the antero-lateral spinnerets with long pyriform gland spigots and a hood (which is unique for gnaphosoid spiders), and deeply notched trochanters. The genus Avstroneulanda gen. n. is diverse and common in Australia, Tasmania, and Papua New Guinea and represented by 13 new species belonging to two groups: the grayi group with five species: A. grayi gen. n. et sp. n. (♂♀), A. robertsi gen. n. et sp. n. (♂♀), A. julianneae gen. n. et sp. n. (♂♀), A. johnmurphyi gen. n. et sp. n. (♂♀), and A. joyae gen. n. et sp. n. (♂), and the harveyi group with eight species: A. harveyi gen. n. et sp. n. (♂♀), A. raveni gen. n. et sp. n. (♂♀), A. mariya gen. n. et sp. n. (♂♀), A. serratta gen. n. et sp. n. (♂), A. yarraman gen. n. et sp. n. (♀), A. lawless gen. n. et sp. n. (♀), A. hostosi gen. n. et sp. n. (♂♀), and A. kokoda gen. n. et sp. n. (♂). The species A. hostosi gen. n. et sp. n. and A. kokoda gen. n. et sp. n. are described from Papua New Guinea, while the remainder are from Australia and Tasmania.

Abstract A new species of trechaleid spider, Paratrechalea murphyi sp. n. (♂♀), is diagnosed, described. and illustrated. The species is based on the male and female specimens collected 20 years ago in a conservation unit in the Cerrado biome of Brazil. An attempt to find new specimens in the type locality and in a few nearby locations failed, raising the possibility that the species is threatened with extinction. We provide a complete picture of the distribution of Paratrechalea, including new records for all previously known species, and discuss the implications of our results in face of current threats to the Cerrado biota.
