Tegenaria hamid Brignoli, 1978 Figs 1 D, 5 A – D Tegenaria hamid Brignoli, 1978 b: 515, fig. 96 (♀). Eratigena fuesslini: Topçu and Demircan 2018: 20, fig. 1 (♀). Type material. Holotype • ♀ (MHNG), Turkiye: Isparta Prov.: Egridir, 18.04.1973 (P. Brignoli). [examined] Other material. Turkiye: Antalya Prov.: • 2 ♀ (ZMUT), Alanya, env. Kestel, Dim Valley, 36°32'34.5"N, 32°06'17.5"E, pine and oak forest, 2–9.01.2013 (Y. M. Marusik); • 1 ♀ (ZMUT), Asmaca, 36°36'32.3"N, 32°03'12.4"E, 686 m, pine and oak forest, 3.01.2013 (Y. M. Marusik). Comment. This species was previously known only from its original description. The single figure of the vulva provided by Brignoli (1978 b) is rather schematic and not depicted from an exact dorsal view. Therefore, we present additional figures from various angles based on newly collected material from Antalya. Additionally, upon checking the record of Eratigena fuesslini (Pavesi, 1873) from Turkiye by Topçu and Demircan (2018), it became evident that the figure presented corresponds to the anteroventral view of the macerated epigyne of T. hamid, rather than E. fuesslini. Consequently, the record of E. fuesslini is hereby removed from the list of Turkish spiders. Distribution. Known only from Isparta and Antalya provinces, southwestern Turkiye.
