MADDISON 2 1 Department of Zoology, University of British Columbia, 6270 University Boulevard, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6T 1Z4, Canada jxzhang1976@gmail.com 2 Departments of Zoology and Botany and Beaty Biodiversity Museum, University of British Columbia, 6270 University Boulevard, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6T 1Z4, Canada. wmaddisn@interchange.ubc.ca Abstract Twenty four new species and three new genera of euophryine jumping spiders from two Caribbean Islands, Hispaniola and Puerto Rico, are described. The new genera are Corticattus (C. guajataca sp. nov. and the type species C. latus sp. nov.), Popcornella (P. furcata sp. nov., P. nigromaculata sp. nov., P. yunque sp. nov. and the type species P. spiniformis sp. nov.) and Truncattus (T. cachotensis sp. nov., T. dominicanus sp. nov. and the type species T. flavus sp. nov.). The other new species belong to the genera Agobardus (A. bahoruco sp. nov., A. cordiformis sp. nov., A. gramineus sp. nov., A. oviedo sp. nov., A. phylladiphilus sp. nov.), Anasaitis (A. adorabilis sp. nov., A. brunnea sp. nov., A. hebetata sp. nov., A. laxa sp. nov.), Antillattus (A. applanatus sp. nov.), Bythocrotus (B. crypticus sp. nov.) and Corythalia (C. broccai sp. nov., C. bromelicola sp. nov., C. coronai sp. nov., C. peblique sp. nov.). Photographs of living spiders and diagnostic illustrations are provided for all of the new species. Key words: Araneae, Salticidae, Euophryinae, new genera, new species, jumping spider, Caribbean Islands Introduction As one of the most diverse groups in the Salticidae, the subfamily Euophryinae has about 900 described species, with the majority found in the tropics of both the Old and the New World (Prószyński 1976; Maddison & Hedin 2003; Platnick 2011). Euophryine jumping spiders are abundant and diverse in the Caribbean Islands (e.g. Bryant 1940, 1943, 1947a, b, 1950; Galiano 1988; Peckham & Peckham 1901; Petrunkevitch 1930), with a total of 84 species in 27 genera reported (Platnick 2011). However, much of the euophryine jumping spider fauna in the Caribbean Islands remains undiscovered. In expeditions to two of the larger islands, Hispaniola and Puerto Rico in 2009, we collected about 66 euophryine jumping spider species, many of which are undescribed. Of these, 24 species were chosen for description here in order to give names for the taxa included in a forthcoming molecular phylogenetic study on the subfamily Euophryinae. These molecular data also provide evidence for the generic placement of species described below. Thus, we report here three new genera, Corticattus (two species), Popcornella (four species) and Truncattus (three species). An additional 15 new euophryine species are described and included in the genera Agobardus (five species), Anasaitis (four species), Antillattus (one species), Bythocrotus (one species) and Corythalia (four species). Although we do not describe all 66 species, this expedition revealed how much Caribbean euophryine diversity remains to be explored. The collected species in total belong to the described genera Agobardus (ca. 16 species), Anasaitis (ca. 15 species), Antillattus (ca. seven species), Bythocrotus (one species), Compsodecta (two species), Corythalia (six species), Dinattus (one species), Caribbean Emathis (three species), Wallaba (one species), and the newly described genera Corticattus gen. nov. (two species), Popcornella gen. nov. (five species) and Truncattus gen. nov. (ca. seven species). The Agobardus species have radiated into various habitats ranging from the rain Accepted by T. Szűts: 3 Aug. 2012; published: 10 Sept

2 forest to the desert dry forest, and can be found in different microhabitats such as foliage, on ground (leaf litter, grass clumps or on rocks) and tree trunks. Typical Antillattus species (e.g. A. gracilis Bryant) are foliage dwellers, but a few species are found on tree trunks (e.g. A. applanatus sp. nov.). Most species of Anasaitis, Corythalia, Dinattus and Wallaba are ground dwellers, but a few species are associated with lower foliage. Both Bythocrotus and Compsodecta are foliage-dwelling, but the Bythocrotus species described here is found in the relatively dry areas while the Compsodecta species are found in moist forests. The Caribbean Emathis species are collected from foliage or tree trunks. Species of Corticattus and Truncattus are exclusively tree-trunk dwellers, while the Popcornella species are found in leaf-litter in forest. Material and methods During an expedition to the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico in 2009, we explored various habitats ranging from the highland pine forest and cloud forest to the lowland humid forest and desert dry forest. Multiple collecting techniques, including beating foliage, brushing tree trunks and searching by eye on the ground and leaf-litter, were used. Photographs of living specimens were taken with a Pentax Optio 33WR digital camera. For macro capability, a small lens was glued to it. Photographs of preserved specimens were taken under a Leica MZ16 dissecting microscope with Leica Application Suite version Preserved specimens were examined under both dissecting microscopes and a compound microscope with reflected light. Drawings were made with a drawing tube on a Nikon ME600L compound microscope. Terminology is standard for Araneae. All measurements are given in millimeters. Descriptions of color pattern are based on the alcohol-preserved specimens. Carapace length was measured from the base of the anterior median eyes, not including the lenses, to the rear margin of the carapace medially; abdomen length to the end of the anal tubercle. The following abbreviations are used: ALE, anterior lateral eyes; AME, anterior median eyes; PLE, posterior lateral eyes; PME, posterior median eyes (the "small eyes"). Specimens are deposited in the Spencer Entomological Collection at the Beaty Biodiversity Museum, University of British Columbia (UBC-SEM). Taxonomy Genus Agobardus Keyserling, 1885 Small to medium sized spiders. Body is usually relatively robust, not elongate. Male cheek is strongly swollen in some species. Chelicera usually has two promarginal teeth and one bicuspid retromarginal tooth. Male chelicera of some species is relatively enlarged with modifications. Tibia and metatarsus of first leg usually have three pairs of ventral macrosetae each. Embolus usually coils for no more than one circle. Tegulum lacks proximal lobe. Epigynum has two circular areas of relatively transparent and flat integument framed by two spiral grooves, which is typical in euophryine jumping spiders and referred to here as the epigynal window. Window of epigynum is large or relatively small, with a median septum. Spermatheca is strongly swollen. Agobardus shows similar body form as Bythocrotus, Compsodecta and some species of Antillattus, but differs from them by the bicuspid retromarginal tooth on chelicera. It also differs from Bythocrotus by the absence of stout macrosetae on the male palpal tibia, and from most species of Compsodecta by the absence of additional apophysis on the male palpal tibia or patella besides the retrolateral tibial apophysis. Eleven species and one subspecies have been reported from the Caribbean Islands (Platnick 2011). However, some species described from Cuba (Bryant 1940) appear to belong to Antillattus Bryant, 1943 based on their diagnostic drawings. Also, some species described as Siloca Simon, 1902 (Galiano 1963) from Cuba may actually belong to Agobardus. Five new species from the Dominican Republic are described here. Placement of these new species in Agobardus is supported by unpublished molecular data. 2 Zootaxa Magnolia Press ZHANG & MADDISON

Figures Agobardus cordiformis sp. nov male holotype; female paratype. Figures are copyright 2012 W. P. Maddison, released under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY) 3.0 license. Etymology. The specific epithet is an adjective from the combination of the Latin cordis (heart) and formis (shaped), and refers to the dark heart-like marking on the front face of male chelicerae. Diagnosis. Resembles Agobardus oviedo in markings, but differs from it by the heart-like marking on the front face of the male chelicerae (Fig. 12), the non-modified male chelicera, and the spermathecae which are further away from each other (Fig. 20). It resembles A. gramineus in color pattern and markings, but differs from that species by the narrower median septum of the epigynum (Fig. 19) and the wider embolic disc of the male palp (Fig. 17). Description. Male (holotype, UBC-SEM AR00032). Carapace length 1.3 (variation , n=2); abdomen length 1.2. Chelicera: dark; proximal part covered with yellow scales; not elaborate. Palp (Figs 17 18): light yellow. Embolus curved for less than half a circle. Retrolateral tibial apophysis finger-like. Measurements of legs: I 2.9, II 2.8, III 3.4, IV 3.6.

Similar to Agobardus brevitarsus Bryant, 1943 in the shape of male chelicera (Fig. 40), and to A. perpilosus Bryant, 1943 in the shape of male palp (Fig. 39). It differs from A. brevitarsus in the shorter embolus (Fig. 39), the dentition on the male chelicera (Fig. 40), and the smaller epigynal window (Fig. 41). It can be distinguished from A. perpilosus by the teeth pattern and the presence of a cusp on the fang of the male chelicera (Fig. 40).

Scale bars: 47, 1.0 mm; 48, 2.0 mm; 51, 0.2 mm; 49 50, 52 53, 0.1 mm. Etymology. The specific epithet means "leaf litter loving", based on the Greek "phyllas" for leaf litter, and refers to its habitat. Diagnosis. Male chelicerae are not modified (Fig. 51), as in Agobardus cordiformis and A. gramineus. Differs from A. cordiformis by the wider retrolateral sperm duct loop (Fig. 49), and the pear-shaped spermathecae, which are closer to each other (Fig. 53). Differs from A. gramineus by the narrower median septum of the epigynum (Fig. 52), and the pear-shaped spermathecae, which are closer to the epigynal groove (Fig. 53). 12 Zootaxa Magnolia Press ZHANG & MADDISON

13 Description. Male (holotype, UBC-SEM AR00038). Carapace length 1.6 (variation , n=6); abdomen length 1.6. Chelicera (Fig. 51): yellow brown; not elaborate. Palp (Figs 49 50): light brown. Embolus slightly curved. Retrolateral tibial apophysis finger-like. Palpal femur and patella with long white hairs. Measurements of legs: I 3.7, II 3.4, III 3.7, IV 4.4. Color in alcohol (Fig. 47): carapace dark brown, with wide lateral margins and a central stripe behind fovea covered with white setae; abdomen light brown, with a pair of dark brown irregular stripes; venter with dark brown speckles; legs I and II dark brown, legs III and IV light brown. Female (paratype, UBC-SEM AR00039). Carapace length 1.6 (variation , n=3); abdomen length 1.7. Measurements of legs: I 3.6, II 3.4, III 3.9, IV 4.7. Epigynum (Figs 52 53): window occupying about half of the epigynal plate; opening of copulatory duct at the posterior margin of the window. Copulatory ducts short and with accessory gland; spermathecae pear-shaped and close to each other. Color in alcohol (Fig. 48): similar to that of the male, but the white lateral margins on carapace narrower, and the dark colored stripes on abdomen more obvious. Natural history. Specimens were found in leaf litter in a pine forest, usually beneath the litter. Genus Anasaitis Bryant, 1950 Small to medium sized, usually with iridescent scales. They are mainly ground dwellers and can be found in leaf litter, on rocks or in grass clumps. Chelicera usually has one bicuspid promarginal tooth and one retromarginal tooth. First tibia usually has three pairs of ventral macrosetae; first metatarsus has two pairs. Embolus usually is very short and not coiled. Tegulum usually has distinct proximal lobe. Epigynum usually lacks obvious window. Copulatory duct is short. Spermatheca is swollen. As indicated by Bryant (1950: 169), this genus is probably close to Corythalia C. L. Koch and can be distinguished from it mainly by the genitalic structure: the embolus of the male palp is usually short with the spiral highly reduced, and the female epigynum usually lacks a distinct window. The reduced embolic spiral is also seen in Soesilarishius Makhan 2007 (see Ruiz 2011) and Popcornella, both of which are small leaf-litter dwelling euophryines, with Soesilarishius found in South America and Popcornella endemic to Caribbean. Anasaitis can be distinguished from Soesilarishius by the presence of iridescent scales on the body and the highly reduced copulatory duct. It differs from Popcornella in the hairy appearance, the presence of iridescent scales on the body, and the extremely short embolus of the male palp. Unpublished molecular data also suggest that Anasaitis, Soesilarishius and Popcornella fall into three distinct clades and the reduced embolic spiral may have evolved independently in these genera. Five species have been recorded from the Caribbean Islands and USA (Platnick 2011). Some other Caribbean species presently placed in Corythalia undoubtedly belong in Anasaitis instead based on their genitalic structures. Four new species from the Dominican Republic are described here. Anasaitis adorabilis sp. nov. Figs Type material.

Similar to Anasaitis brunnea in the color pattern and markings, but its carapace has a U -shaped marking behind PLEs (Figs 58 59), unlike A. brunnea. It can also be distinguished from A. brunnea by the shape of the genitalia, in which the proximal tegular lobe of the male palp is larger and the palpal bulb is narrower (Fig. 60); the copulatory ducts of vulva are shorter (Fig. 62).

21 Female (paratype, UBC-SEM AR00046). Carapace length 1.4; abdomen length 1.5. Tibia of first leg with three ventral macrosetae retrolaterally and two prolaterally. Measurements of legs: I 2.2, II 2.1, III 2.8, IV 2.8. Epigynum (Figs 88 89): no obvious window or median septum; opening to copulatory duct at posterior end of epigynum. Copulatory ducts short; spermathecae spherical. Color in alcohol (Fig. 85): similar to that of male, but light colored markings on carapace and abdomen more distinct. Natural history. Specimens were found in grass clumps in dry desert forest. Genus Antillattus Bryant, 1943 Medium sized spiders. Male chelicerae are usually elongate or enlarged with modifications such as projections on the front and/or ectal surface. Endites are usually enlarged distally. Chelicera usually has a fissident retromarginal tooth with more than two cusps or a unident retromarginal tooth (e.g. Antillattus applanatus). Embolus of the male palp is usually short with a simple curve. Epigynum has an obvious window with a median septum. Vulva usually has a pair of secondary spermathecae in addition to the primary spermathecae. Antillattus differs from Agobardus in the dentition of the female chelicera (Agobardus has one bicuspid retromarginal tooth in female) and the presence of the secondary spermatheca in vulva (Agobardus lacks secondary spermatheca). Although some species of Agobardus also have enlarged chelicerae in male, they usually lack a projection on the front or ectal surface of the chelicera as seen in Antillattus. Only two species have been reported from Hispaniola (Bryant 1943; Platnick 2011). However, some species placed in Agobardus, Pensacola and Siloca may actually belong to Antillattus. The new species is placed in Antillattus mainly because unpublished molecular data indicates that it is closely related to the type species of Antillattus, A. gracilis Bryant, Figures Antillatus applanatus sp. nov male holotype; 93 female paratype.

26 Diagnosis. Small tree trunk dwelling spiders. Body is flattened. Chelicera has one bicuspid promarginal tooth and one unident retromarginal tooth. First pair of legs in male sometimes are widened. Embolus is long and coiled. Tegulum has distinctive proximal lobe and small distal triangular projection. Epigynum has window with a median septum. Corticattus is similar to the marpissoids Balmaceda (see Edwards 2006) and Metacyrba (see Edwards 2006) in the body form, but can be easily distinguished by the genitalia. Corticattus differs from other euophryine genera by the flattened body, the absence of retrolateral sperm duct loop and the presence of prolateral sperm duct loop on the bulb, the presence of a triangular projection at the distal end of the tegulum, and the presence of a large accessory gland on the copulatory duct.

Corythalia can usually be distinguished from the closely related genus Anasaitis by the long and coiled embolus, the presence of a distinct epigynal window with median septum, and the longer copulatory duct. Corythalia is one of the most diverse although poorly studied euophryine genera in the New World, with 73 species described (Platnick 2011). The monophyly of this genus has never been tested and some species reported from the Caribbean Islands may be misplaced. The new species described here are placed in Corythalia because unpublished molecular data indicate that they fall into a clade with the other Corythalia species from the South and Central America.

36 Corythalia coronai sp. nov. Figs Type material. Holotype: male, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC: Pedernales: Rio Mulito, N, W, elev. 270 m, 16 July 2009, coll. W. Maddison, G. B. Edwards, J. Zhang, G. Ruiz, N. Corona, WPM# (UBC-SEM AR00057). Paratypes: 1 female, same data as holotype (UBC-SEM AR00058); 13 males and 8 females in three vials, same data as holotype. Etymology. The specific epithet is a patronym in honor of Mr. Nicolas Corona, who helped in collecting specimens during the expedition to the Dominican Republic in Diagnosis. Unlike Corythalia broccai and C. bromelicola, the carapace is not swollen behind the ALEs (Fig. 171), and the copulatory duct openings are more anterior (Figs ). It can be distinguished from Wallaba decora Bryant, 1943 by the shorter embolus and the narrower retrolateral sperm duct loop of the male palp (Fig. 173), and the more widely spread iridescent scales on the male carapace (Fig. 165). See also the diagnosis of C. peblique for differences with that species.

A noun in apposition taken from the type locality. Diagnosis. Similar to Corythalia coronai, but can be distinguished by the markings on the carapace and abdomen (Figs , ), the longer male legs (Figs ), the curved ridge on the front surface of the male chelicera (Fig. 187), and the wider embolus (Fig. 186). Description. Male (holotype, UBC-SEM AR00059). Carapace length 2.5 (variation , n=8); abdomen length 2.4. Chelicera (Figs ): dark brown; with one bicuspid promarginal tooth and one retromarginal tooth; anterior surface with a ridge. Palp (Fig. 186): dark brown. Embolus wide with a simple and short curve.

39 Female (paratype, UBC-SEM AR00060). Carapace length 2.5 (variation , n=11); abdomen length 3.0. Chelicera: with one bicuspid promarginal and one retromarginal tooth. First leg with three pairs of ventral macrosetae on tibia and metatarsus each. Measurements of legs: I 4.9, II 4.5, III 5.2, IV 5.4. Epigynum (Figs ): window occupying more than half of epigynal plate, with opening to copulatory duct close to the anterior margin. Copulatory ducts with accessory gland near the opening; spermathecae oval and located within the window. Color in alcohol (Fig. 185): similar to that of the male but legs yellow brown. Natural history. Specimens were found on leaf litter or on rocks in a relatively dry forest. This species seems to become active in the late afternoon. Several hours of collecting in the forest yielded many salticids, including many from leaf litter and rocks, but none (or very few) of this species until approximately 6:00 pm, when over the span of about 15 minutes they became commonly seen. Figures Popcornella furcata sp. nov male paratype; 194 female paratype. Figures are copyright 2012 W. P. Maddison, released under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY) 3.0 license. Genus Popcornella new genus Type species: Popcornella spiniformis Zhang & Maddison, sp. nov. Etymology. The generic name is derived from the English popcorn, inspired by the nature of the spiders to jump away quickly in apparently random directions when disturbed; feminine in gender. Diagnosis. Small leaf-litter dwelling spiders. They are usually brown or dark brown in color. Chelicera has two promarginal teeth and one retromarginal tooth. First tibia has three pairs of ventral macrosetae; first metatarsus has NEW EUOPHRYINE JUMPING SPIDERS Zootaxa Magnolia Press 39

40 two pairs. Embolus of the male palp is short and uncoiled. Epigynum has no distinct window structure, which is similar to Anasaitis Bryant, 1950, another leaf-litter associated genus mainly from the Caribbean. However, Popcornella differs from Anasaitis in lacking iridescent scales on the carapace and abdomen, and fringes on male legs; the retrolateral tibial apophysis of male palp is usually short. Popcornella is also distinguishable from Soesilarishius Makhan 2007 (see Ruiz 2011) by the short retrolateral tibial apophysis of the male palp and the usually highly shortened copulatory duct of the female vulva. Unpublished molecular data indicate that Popcornella falls into a clade distinct from both Anasaitis and Soesilarishius.

Genus Truncattus new genus Type species: Truncattus flavus Zhang & Maddison, sp. nov. Etymology. The generic name is from the combination of truncus (tree trunk, where the species is usually found) and -attus (a common ending for salticid genera); masculine in gender. Diagnosis. Small tree trunk dwelling spiders. Chelicera has two promarginal teeth and one bicuspid retromarginal tooth. First tibia has three pairs of ventral macrosetae; first metatarsus has two pairs. Male chelicerae are not modified. Embolus is usually not very long but curved. Tegulum has an obvious proximal lobe, and palpal tibia has a ventral bump. Epigynum has a window with median septum. Some species have obvious secondary spermathecae in addition to the primary spermathecae. Genitalia organs are similar to those of Antillattus Bryant, 1943 and the Emathis species from Puerto Rico (Petrunkevitch 1930). It differs from Antillattus by the nonmodified male chelicerae and endites; and from Puerto Rican species presently included in Emathis by the bicuspid NEW EUOPHRYINE JUMPING SPIDERS Zootaxa Magnolia Press 47

48 retromarginal tooth on the chelicera (three or more cusps in Emathis species from Puerto Rico). This genus is also similar to Caribattus (see Peckham & Peckham 1901) in color pattern, but can be distinguished by the bicuspid retromarginal tooth (Caribattus has one unident retromarginal tooth), and the presence of a proximal tegular lobe on the male palp (the tegular lobe is absent in Caribattus).
