Abstract

We report Gnaphosa jodhpurensis Tikader & Gajbe, 1977 (Araneae, Gnaphosidae) from Iraq and the Middle East for the first time, based on material collected from Karbala, Babylon, and Dhi Qar provinces. Identification was based on morphological comparison with the original description and further supported by DNA barcoding of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene. Known distribution records of the species across its range are mapped.
