Comparative material
Haplodrassus pugnans (Simon, 1880): RUSSIA, Magadan Area: 1 ♂, 3 ♀♀ (ISEA, БИ-930), Ten’kynskyi Distr., env. Sibit-Tyellakh, Aborigen Field Station, Betula, 12–22.06.1983, A.V. Avershin.
Diagnosis
Haplodrassus bohemicus is most similar to Haplodrassus pugnans (Simon, 1880), Haplodrassus signifer (C.L. Koch, 1839) and Haplodrassus pseudosignifer Marusiket al. 1996, but differs: 1) by the shape of RTA having a “step”-like dorsal margin (RTA dorsal margin without “step” in Haplodrassus pugnans, Haplodrassus signifer and Haplodrassus pseudosignifer); 2) by the apically directed embolus lacking a tooth (retrolaterally directed embolus with a tooth in Haplodrassus pugnans, Haplodrassus signifer and Haplodrassus pseudosignifer); 3) by the outlines of epigynal sclerites and relative proportions of the epigynal fovea (cf. Figs 10, 12 and 13, 75, 78).
Description
Male measurements (n = 5). Total length 5.8–7.5 (6.7); carapace 2.7–3.2 (3.0) long, 2.0–2.6 (2.3) wide. Diameters of eyes and distances between them: AM 0.10–0.15 (0.12), AL 0.10–0.16 (0.13), PM 0.15–0.22 (0.19), PL 0.10–0.14 (0.12), AM-AM 0.09–0.12 (0.10), AM-AL 0.03–0.04 (0.04), PM-PM 0.03–0.04 (0.03), PM-PL 0.12–0.16 (0.14), AM-PM 0.12–0.18 (0.15), AL-PL 0.10–0.16 (0.14). Distances between anterior eyes and margin of clypeus: AM-clypeus 0.18–0.22 (0.20), AL-clypeus 0.10–0.18 (0.15).

Cheliceral teeth: anterior – 2 (little; proximal tooth connected with keel of cheliceral groove), posterior – 2. Abdomen 2.9–4.0 (3.6) long, 1.8–2.2 (2.0) wide. Scutum is absent.
