Transferred to Arctosa by Tikader & Malhotra (1980: 373) , though based on misidentified specimens. Type material. Types (male and female) from PAKISTAN : Mojpur ; collector unknown; 1928-29; repository unknown, probably Zoological Laboratory , Government College , Lahore , not examined. Neotype material (designated by Tikader & Malhotra (1980)) : 2 males and 6 females from INDIA : Maharashtra : Satara : Near Pratapgad rest house; B.K. Tikader leg.; 26 March 1976 ; repository unknown, probably NZC-ZSI, Kolkata , not found. It may either be lost or misplaced elsewhere in the collection or may not have been deposited in ZSI. Remarks. Dyal (1935) described A . mulani based on male and female specimens collected in Pakistan . Even though it was originally described under Pardosa C.L. Koch, 1847 , the illustration of the female epigynum ( Dyal 1935 : fig. 46) clearly indicates it is a member of Arctosa . However, as mentioned above, Tikader & Malhotra (1980) and Lu et al. (2016) probably misidentified this species. Thus, the neotype designation by Tikader & Malhotra (1980) is doubtful and we herein consider A. mulani as a species inquirenda .
