Description

Nesioneta mingshengzhui (Barrion, Barrion-Dupo & Heong, 2013), comb. nov.

Figs 5A, B, 6A–C

Meioneta mingshengzhui Barrion, Barrion-Dupo & Heong, in Barrion et al., 2013: 11, fig. 11A–D (♀).

Agyneta mingshengzhui Dupérré, 2013: 16.

Type material examined. Holotype ♀ (coll. no. S043), CHINA: Hainan Island, Panja Town, Songtao Reservoir, 3.IV.2011, leg. A. T. Barrion et al.; Paratypes: 2♀ (coll. nos. 48, 51), same data as holotype.

Description and diagnosis. See Barrion et al. (2013) for the original description and illustrations. The general habitus of the holotype is given in Fig. 6 and its epigynal morphology is given in Fig. 5.

Distribution. China (Hainan).

Comments. Identification of Agyneta mingshengzhui is difficult because the male is unknown (A. Tanasevitch, personal communication). Its collection at the type locality in future is necessary to confirm the generic placement of the species, although the female morphology is more consistent with a placement in Nesioneta Millidge, 1991 than in Agyneta Hull, 1911, where it is currently placed; we thus propose its transfer to Nesioneta.
