Description

Table 2 (continued on next page). This list contains all species that belonged to Araeoncus Simon, 1884, including those that are newly assigned to Araeoncus marked as comb. nov. Species that were scored for the cladistic analyses are marked with an asterisk (and the citation refers to figures illustrating the diagnostic characters). The remaining species are assigned to Araeoncus based on the figures cited showing the long, robust and widely curved embolus, the retrolateral distal lobe and the typical cephalic lobe. The different species groups are indicated in brackets, victorianyanzae -group (V), dentatus -group (D), galeriformis - group (G), humilis -group (H) and anguineus -group (A) with two subgroups a and b. “” = ambiguous species group assignments;??? = of uncertain assignment and probably misplaced within Araeoncus.
