The spider family Micropholcommatidae (Arachnida: Araneae: Araneoidea): a relimitation and revision at the generic level Author Rix, Michael Western Australian Museum, Welshpool DC, Perth, Australia Author Harvey, Mark Western Australian Museum, Perth, Welshpool, Australia text ZooKeys 2010 2010-02-22 36 36 1 321 journal article 10.3897/zookeys.36.306 4db6b327-7482-432e-a5f6-36f91c79fef3 1313–2970 576620 ADCACC88-6C78-4386-8E33-3F98234ECE92 Micropholcomma linnaei Rix, 2008 Micropholcomma linnaei Rix, 2008: 343 , figs 1–11. Platnick, 2009 . Type material. Holotype male: Walpole-Nornalup National Park , Giant Tingle Area , 8 km NE. of Walpole , Western Australia , Australia , mixed Eucalyptus litter, 19.XII.1976 , J. Kethley ( WAM T85552 ). Paratypes : Allotype female, same data as holotype ( WAM T85553 ); 33 males and 51 females , same data as holotype ( WAM T85554 ); 1 male and 3 females , same data as holotype ( FMC ); 5 males and 2 females , same data as holotype except Karri and Acacia litter ( FMC ) . Remarks . Micropholcomma linnaei is the only species of Micropholcomma currently described from Western Australia , and is most similar to M. turbans from Tasmania (Rix 2008). Main (1974) recorded two other micropholcommatid species from Western Australia ( M. longissimum and M. bryophilum ), although the exact identity of these species cannot be confirmed given the lack of voucher specimens. Western Australia is now known to have a large diversity of Micropholcomma , with several species clearly similar to M. longissimum and M. bryophilum (see Remarks for M. longissimum , below), and the true identity of the Main (1974) specimens will require further testing.
