Synonyms of jumping spider genera 91 1963) was synonymized with Nigorella Wesołowska &Toma- siewicz, 2008 (type N. aethiopica Wesołowska &Tomasiewicz, 2008) by Prószyński (2018b: 157), without recognizing, that Hasarina is older than Nigorella and would become the valid generic name (not accepted in the WSC 2019).We compared published figures of N. aethiopica (Wesołowska & Tomasie- wicz 2008: figs 130-143) with figures of H. contortospinosa (Peng et al. 1993: figs 254-263) and do not believe them to be congeneric. Furthermore, Nigorella was described from Africa and was restricted to Africa until Prószyński (2018) transfer- red several Asian species from Evarcha to Nigorella , which in our opinion needs revision. Note on Iberattus Prószyński, 2018 Iberattus Prószyński, in Prószyński et al. 2018: 83 (type Attus semi-glabratus Simon, 1868). Iberattus semiglabratus (Simon, 1868) Attus semi-glabratus Simon, 1868: 561 ( ) ). Euophrys semiglabrata Hęciak & Prószyński 1984: 378, figs 1-14 ( ) ( ). Euophrys semiglabrata Barrientos et al. 2014: 36, figs 15-17 ( ) ). Iberattus semiglabratus Prószyński et al. 2018: 85, fig. 1A-T ( ) ( ). Comments . Attus semi-glabratus Simon, 1868 was descri- bed based on the holotype male: “Un seul individu ) pris à Reynosa dans les Asturies” [“A single ) taken at Reynosa in Asturias” now spelled ‘Reinosa’, NW Spain]. In the material examined Prószyński et al. (2018) wrote “Lectotype male, pa- ralectotypes: 4 males and 4 females, original collection label is: “902. Phl .[ egra ] semiglabrata E. S. Astur., Portug., la Rhu- ne” – collection Simon – MNHN Paris (lectotype designated by Hęciak & Prószyński 1984)”. So, Hęciak & Prószyński (1984) and Prószyński et al. (2018) were not dealing with the holotype male, but with a sample possibly containing the ho- lotype and other specimens collected after the species was de- scribed. In addition, Prószyński et al. (2018) mentioned that the authors were not sure if males and females belong to the same species “Matching of sexes and conspecificity not veri- fied”.This is not a proper basis to separate a new genus from the genus Euophrys , but we leave it to a revision to clarify this situation.
