A NEW GENUS AND SPECIES OF GNAPHOSID SPIDER FROM KOREA

Abstract

Coreodrassus coreanus, a new genus and species, is described from Korea. This new genus is very closely allied to Orodrassus and Haplodrassus, but can be easily distinguished from them by presence of a patellar apophysis on the male palp, by having a dorsal spine on the tibia III, and by absence of ventral spines on the tibiae I and II. Type species: Coreodrassus coreanus sp. n.
