Ein Beitrag zur Springspinnenfauna (Araneae: Salticidae) der griechischen Insel Korfu mit vier Erstnachweisen für die Insel und Anmerkungen zur Gattung Salticus
A contribution to the jumping spider fauna (Araneae: Salticidae) of the Greek Island of Corfu with four new records for the island and a note on the genus Salticus
Heft 61
During a survey of the jumping spider fauna of the Greek island of Corfu, 30 species in 18 genera were recorded. Four species, Heliophanus equester L. Koch, 1867, Neaetha absheronica Logunov & Guseinov, 2002, Pellenes florii Schäfer, 2020 and Talavera aequipes (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1871) were recorded on the island for the first time. In addition, the previously unknown female of Salticus unicolor (Simon, 1868) is described and three new synonymies are proposed within the genus Salticus: Salticus mandibularis (Simon, 1868) = S. unciger (Simon, 1868) syn. nov., Salticus olivaceus (L. Koch, 1867) = S. propinquus Lucas, 1846 syn. conf. and Salticus quagga Miller, 1971 = S. unicolor syn. nov. Moreover, a number of taxonomic problems regarding the genus Pellenes are briefly discussed.
