New record of Ischnothele annulata (Mygalomorphae: Ischnothelidae) in San Juan extends its known western range
We report the first record of Ischnothele annulata (Mygalomorphae: Ischnothelidae) for the province of San Juan, Argentina. This finding extends its known distribution, marking a new western limit with the nearest locations being Chepes and Quines in La Rioja and San Luis, respectively. The observed population is within the arid region of central-western Argentina, at the ecotone between the Arid Chaco and the Monte Desert.
