Four new species of the trapdoor spider genus Conothele Thorell, 1878 (Araneae, Halonoproctidae) from China

Abstract. Herein four species of the trapdoor spider genus Conothele Thorell, 1878 collected from China are described as new to science based on the female genital morphology: C.baishasp. n. (Hainan Province), C.baotingsp. n. (Hainan Province), C.linzhisp. n. (Tibet), and C.jinggangshansp. n. (Jiang...

Sumario:Abstract. Herein four species of the trapdoor spider genus Conothele Thorell, 1878 collected from China are described as new to science based on the female genital morphology: C.baishasp. n. (Hainan Province), C.baotingsp. n. (Hainan Province), C.linzhisp. n. (Tibet), and C.jinggangshansp. n. (Jiangxi Province). For two Hainan species, C.baishasp. n. and C.baotingsp. n., between which it is difficult to distinguish solely based on female genital morphology, additional diagnoses derived from species-specific nucleotide substitution information and genetic distances using the mitochondrial gene, cytochrome c oxidase subunit I are provided.
