Dendrolycosa spadicaria
(
Simon 1897
)
comb. nov.
nomen dubium
Sphedanus spadicarius

Nilus spadicarius
,—
Simon 1898a
: 289
.
Both immatures are considered to belong to the
type
series, although only one total length is given in the original description (
10 mm
). This would fit best the larger specimen. From the opisthosomal pattern, it should belong to
Dendrolycosa
and is transferred here provisionally. Until adult specimens are found it is treated as nomen dubium.
