Comments.
The species was described according to a female collected in
Nepal
. “Nach der Epigynum bestehen Beziehungen zu
Porrhomma kulczynskii
,
nunamo
und
pallidum
” (
Wunderlich, 1983
). The vulva of
P. boreale
(=
nunamo
,
kulczynskii
) is fundamentally different. The examined vulva is similar to those of
P. pallidum
or
P. egeria
. However, a male is unknown, and it is impossible to decide on the species identity without a male. At present, we must consider this species as
species inquirenda
and the name
Porrhomma marphaense
to be a
nomen dubium
.
