Observations on the running spider Suemus punctatus Lawrence, 1938 from South Africa (Araneae: Philodromidae)

Suemus punctatus Lawrence, 1938, is known from Eswatini, Mozambique, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. They are free-living plant dwellers found on grasses and occasionally on shrubs. Their movements are erratic, and using their claw tufts and scopulae, they can move about swiftly on the vegetation. Information on their general morphology, behaviour, and distribution in South Africa, with photographs of live specimens, is provided.

Abstract

Suemus punctatus Lawrence, 1938, is known from Eswatini, Mozambique, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. They are free-living plant dwellers found on grasses and occasionally on shrubs. Their movements are erratic, and using their claw tufts and scopulae, they can move about swiftly on the vegetation. Information on their general morphology, behaviour, and distribution in South Africa, with photographs of live specimens, is provided.
