Revision of the pseudo-orbweavers of the genus Fecenia Simon, 1887 (Araneae, Psechridae), with emphasis on their pre-epigyne
Bayer,Steffen
The present paper provides a taxonomic revision of the genus Fecenia with emphasis on the characteristics of the pre-epigynes which are integrated for the first time into an identification key. As a result, one species is revalidated, F. protensa Thorell, 1891, stat. n., and two new junior synonyms for F. protensa are recognised: F. sumatrana Kulczyński, 1908, syn. n. and F. nicobarensis (Tikader, 1977), syn. n. New records are reported: F. ochracea (Doleschall, 1859) from Malaysian Borneo, F. macilenta (Simon, 1885) from Sumatra, Indonesia, F. protensa from Thailand and Malaysia, F. travancoria Pocock, 1899 from Sri Lanka and Thailand, and F. cylindrata Thorell, 1895 from Thailand and Laos. Additional information on the biology of Fecenia is provided and the validity of characters for identifying Fecenia species is discussed.
