    Two species of genus Stygothrombium are newly described from central Japan under the name of S. grandispinigerum sp. nov. and S. monotrichum sp. nov. S. grandispinigerum is distinguishable from congeners by the shape and position of the harpagones, odonti, parodonti, lanceae, and gladii on the palp and the existence of a central glandularium on the idiosoma. S. monotrichum is distinguished from congeners by the inverted condition of the second ventral glandularia placed at the back of the posterior genital acetabula, the existence of a glandularium on the center of the posterior dorsal side of the idiosoma, and the posterior associate seta with glandularia on the skin. Morphologies of glandularia on the idiosoma, distal segment of the palp, and stomatoids on the first leg are first observed in detail using SEM.
