Ordo: Araneae
Familia: Salticidae
Genus: Eupoa
Name
Eupoa pappi Logunov & Marusik, 2014 sp. n. – Wikispecies link – ZooBank link – Pensoft Profile
Type
Holotype ♂ (HNHM) from Thailand Trang Prov., Thung Khai Botanic Garden, primary lowland rainforest, 12.11.2004, L. Papp & M. Földvári.
Etymology
The species is named after Dr. László Papp (Budapest, Hungary), who collected the holotype.
Diagnosis
By having the massive compound terminal apophysis with a deep longitudinal groove on its apical edge (Fig. 67), the male of Eupoa pappi sp. n. is most similar to that of Eupoa thailandica sp. n. (Figs 109, 115), from which it differs in having the larger open cavity of tegulum and the shape of tegular and compound terminal apophyses. The female of Eupoa pappi sp. n. remains unknown.
Distribution
The type locality only.
