Evolution of nuptial-gift-related male prosomal structures: taxonomic revision and cladistic analysis of the genus Oedothorax (Araneae: Linyphiidae: Erigoninae) Author Lin, Shou-Wang Author Lopardo, Lara Author Uhl, Gabriele text Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 2022 2021-11-20 195 417 584 journal article 115951 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab033 75b10efe-a17d-4d10-b46e-094c6a7ebf01 0024-4082 6967774 BE2B3859-8F6A-4543-8A69-91840F82377B ‘OEDOTHORAX’ JAPONICUS KISHIDA, 1910 INCERTAE SEDIS Oedothorax japonicus Kishida, 1910: 6 (Dmf) . Unexamined material: Japan : Honshu , Nagaoka City , 30.v.1908 , coll. Masao Nakamura ( Kishida 1910 ). No type was designated . Diagnosis: The original description does not provide sufficient information for the identification of this species. Distribution: Only known from the type locality in Japan . Remarks: No figures were provided in Kishida (1910) , and according to his description, this species resembles Paratmeticus bipunctis ( Bösenberg & Strand 1906 ) , although no further details were provided to assert such similarity. According to the original description, the palps of ‘ Oe.’ japonicus might resemble that of Erigonella from Denis (1964) and Strand (1905) , but both these species were also described without illustrations. Therefore, the relationship of this species to other taxa is unclear.
