A review of some species of Ebrechtella Dahl, 1907 (Araneae: Thomisidae) with description of two new species

The crab spiders of the genus Ebrechtella Dahl, 1907 are small to medium-sized, foliage and canopy dwellers, predominantly known from the Oriental region. Ebrechtella currently contains 12 valid species. However, it is badly in need of revision and circumscription. Here we provide new locality data for E. concinna (Thorell, 1877) and E. pseudovatia (Schenkel, 1936) and describe two new species: E. nigripuncta sp. nov. (♂♀) and E. ornatissima sp. nov. (♂). The placement of the new species is considered provisional pending a revision of the genus.

Abstract

The crab spiders of the genus Ebrechtella Dahl, 1907 are small to medium-sized, foliage and canopy dwellers, predominantly known from the Oriental region. Ebrechtella currently contains 12 valid species. However, it is badly in need of revision and circumscription. Here we provide new locality data for E. concinna (Thorell, 1877) and E. pseudovatia (Schenkel, 1936) and describe two new species: E. nigripuncta sp. nov. (♂♀) and E. ornatissima sp. nov. (♂). The placement of the new species is considered provisional pending a revision of the genus.
