Majorca : Palma de Mallorca , Castillo de San Carlos ( 39°32'47.4''N 2°37'16.8''E ), 16m , 1 ♂ 4 ♀♀ , under large stones in pine grove, 29.IV.2014 (CJL). Comments. Dysdera lata is the name giving species of the lata group of Dysdera . Apart from this species, the following are listed as members of this group by Deeleman-Reinhold & Deeleman (1988): D. westringii O.P.- Cambridge, D. spinicrus Simon , D. taurica Charitonov , D. simoni Deeleman-Reinhold and D. gemina Deeleman- Reinhold. The species D. lata , D. westringii and D. taurica have often been confused in the past, and although Řezáč et al. (2008) gave a detailed redescription of D. taurica , the species is considered a synonym of D. lata in the World Spider Catalogue 2016. Distribution. Dysdera lata has a remarkable, perhaps secondary distribution, from Morocco and Algeria in the West to Greece , Bulgaria , Romania , Ukraine , Russia , Turkey and Egypt in the East.
