REMARKS. This species was originally described from Kamchatka [Kulczyṅski, 1885]. Recently, the species was re-exanimate and redescribed by Logunov [1992] on the basis of the materials collected in Khabarovsk Province and Tuva Republic. Later, it has been found in some regions of Siberia and the Russian Far East (see map in Marusik et al. [2000]): Magadan Region [Marusik et al., 1992], Yakutia Republic [Koponen & Marusik, 1992; Marusik et al., 1993, 2004], Buryatia [Danilov, 1995] and Amur Region [Seyfulina, 2006]. The Pechoro-Ilychskiy Reserve is the westernmost locality of the species. New to the Urals. The Siberian P. praedo is vicarious to the West-Eurasian nemoral P. tenuitarsis Simon, 1876, which is extremely similar to the former species. Besides, small but clear difference in the copulatory organs [see Logunov, 1992], P. praedo differs from the latter one in the body colour and pattern: the carapace of P. praedo with yellow lateral stripes (absent in P. tenuitarsis) and the abdomen grey without dark cross spots.
