New euophryine jumping spiders from Southeast Asia and Africa (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae) Author Zhang, Jun-Xia Author Maddison, Wayne P. text Zootaxa 2012 3581 53 80 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.283062 cfe030a1-ca90-4fbb-aa43-778d1d22f3e1 1175-5326 283062 Genus Parabathippus gen. nov. Type species. Bathippus shelfordi Peckham & Peckham, 1907 . Etymology. The generic name is reminiscent of the name Bathippus ; masculine in gender. Diagnosis. Medium sized spiders. Female chelicera with two promarginal teeth and one unident retromarginal tooth. Male chelicera usually elongate. Tegulum of male palp without proximal lobe; retrolateral sperm duct loop usually wide occupying more than half of bulb width; embolus slender and usually coiled for more than a circle; ventral tibial bump absent. Epigynal window large with a median septum. Spermatheca swollen and distinctive from copulatory duct. Parabathippus resembles Bathippus Thorell in body form, color and elongate male chelicera, but differs in the long and coiled embolus with the plane of spiral parallel to the longitudinal axis of the palpal bulb (the plane of the embolic spiral is usually perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the palpal bulb in Bathippus ), the oval embolic disc of the male palp; and the longer and usually less sclerotized copulatory duct. Remarks. The Southeast Asian Bathippus species have different genital structures from the species from Papua New Guinea , Pacific Islands and Australia including the type of Bathippus , B. macrognathus (Thorell) . Unpublished molecular data also indicate that they fall into distinct clades. Thus the new genus Parabathippus is described here and the following species are transferred to Parabathippus from Bathippus : Parabathippus birmanicus ( Thorell, 1895 ) (New Combination) Parabathippus digitalis ( Zhang, Song & Li, 2003 ) (New Combination) Parabathippus macilentus ( Thorell, 1890 ) (New Combination) Parabathippus petrae ( Prószyński & Deeleman-Reinhold, 2012 ) (New Combination) Parabathippus rectus ( Zhang, Song & Li, 2003 ) (New Combination) Parabathippus sedatus ( Peckham & Peckham, 1907 ) (New Combination) Parabathippus shelfordi ( Peckham & Peckham, 1907 ) (New Combination)
