New taxonomic and faunistic data on the funnel-weavers (Araneae, Agelenidae) of Turkiye and the Caucasus, with five new species

New taxonomic and faunistic data on the agelenid spiders of Turkiye and the Caucasus are provided. Five species are described as new to science: <i>Maimunaantalyensis</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> (♂♀; Turkiye: Antalya), <i>Tegenariaballarini</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> (♂♀; Turkiye: Antalya), <i>T.beyazcika</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> (♂; Turkiye: Antalya), <i>T.egrisiana</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> (♂♀; Georgia: Imereti), and <i>T.hoeferi</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> (♂♀; Armenia: Kotayk). <i>Tegenarialazarovi</i> Dimitrov, 2020, <b>syn. nov.</b> is proposed as a new junior synonym of <i>T.averni</i> Brignoli, 1978. <i>Persiscapecaucasica</i> (Guseinov, Marusik & Koponen, 2005) is newly reported from Armenia, and <i>T.chumachenkoi</i> Kovblyuk & Ponomarev, 2008 is reported for the first time from Turkiye. New distribution records for <i>T.dalmatica</i> Kulczyński, 1906, <i>T.hamid</i> Brignoli, 1978, <i>T.longimana</i> Simon, 1898 and <i>T.percuriosa</i> Brignoli, 1972, and topotype material for <i>T.tekke</i> Brignoli, 1978 are reported. The record of <i>Eratigenafuesslini</i> (Pavesi, 1873) from Turkiye is found to be based on a misidentification, and is herein attributed to <i>T.hamid</i>. The presence of an embolic spine, unknown in any other species of <i>Tegenaria</i>, is documented in <i>T.anhela</i> Brignoli, 1972 for the first time. Photographs are provided for all treated species.
