Re-description of Sinopoda curva Zhong, Jäger, Chen & Liu, 2019 (Araneae, Sparassidae), with a first description of the female
Recently, new materials of huntsman spiders have been collected from Mt. Wuyishan, including specimens of both sexes. Several males were identified as <i>S.curva</i>, based on morphological comparison with the holotype. Based on morphological characters and DNA barcodes, we confidently matched the females and males as <i>S.curva</i>. Herein, <i>S.curva</i> is re-described, based on these new materials and the female is described and illustrated for the first time.
