Types
Paratypes. Bulgaria: Pirin Mountains, Vasilachliezera, 1 ♂, 1 ♀ (NHMW), 25.vii.1985, Deltshev.
Diagnosis
Several details and measurements were provided by Deltshev (1993). All examined characters mentioned for Teg. campestris were identical to this species except for slight differences in the genital morphology.
Distribution
Reported from Bulgaria (Pirin Mountains) (Deltshev, 1993).
Discussion
Tegenaria montana belongs, together with Teg. bozhkovi, Teg. campestris, and Teg. rilaensis, to a ‘super species’ described by Deltshev (2008b). Based on the material available for examination, we cannot judge the relationships within this species complex.
