Abstract

The male and female of Lepthyphantes christodeltshev sp. n. are described from mainland Greece. The presently accepted subdivision of Lepthyphantes s.l. into separate genera is commented upon and criticized as user-unfriendly. Possible functional aspects of the epigyne and male palp are discussed.
