2000
Four new species of the spider family Sparassidae are described from Japan under the names Olios japonicus sp. nov., Heteropoda simplex sp. nov., Sinopoda okinawana sp. nov. and S. tanikawai sp. nov. The genus Olios is recorded for the first time from Japan. Taxonomical notes and new records of some known species and comments on diagnostic characters of the subfamilies and genera of the Japanese Sparassidae are presented.
Sparassidae in China. 1. Revised list of known species with new transfers, new synonymies and type designations (Arachnida: Araneae)
2001
This paper starts a revisional study of Chinese Sparassidae. A total of three subfamilies, eight genera and 53 species is known so far from China. Detailed data on type material of each species with references and known distribution are given. Following species are transferred to other genera: Olios menghaiensis (Wang 1990) COMB. NOV. (from Heteropoda), Olios nanningensis (Hu & Ru 1988) COMB. NOV. (from Micrommata), Olios tiantongensis (Zhang & Kim 1996) COMB. NOV (from Heteropoda), Pseudopoda bibulba (Xu & Yin 2000) COMB. NOV. (from Heteropoda), Pseudopoda marsupia (Wang 1991) COMB. NOV. (from Sinopoda), Sinopoda dayong (Bao, Yin & Yan 2000) COMB. NOV. (from Heteropoda), and Sinopoda himal…
Molecular phylogeny of the spider family Sparassidae with focus on the genus Eusparassus and notes on the RTA-clade and ‘Laterigradae’
2013
The phylogeny of the spider family Sparassidae is comprehensively investigated using four molecular markers (mitochondrial COI and 16S; nuclear H3 and 28S). Sparassidae was recovered as monophyletic and as most basal group within the RTA-clade. The higher-level clade Dionycha was not but monophyly of RTA-clade was supported. No affiliation of Sparassidae to other members of the 'Laterigradae' (Philodromidae, Selenopidae and Thomisidae) was observed, and the crab-like posture of this group assumed a result of convergent evolution. Only Philodromidae and Selenopidae were found members of a supported clade, but together with Salticidae and Corinnidae, while Thomisidae was nested within the hig…
