Abstract

A new genus, Karakumosa gen. nov., is established to accommodate nine central Asian species of burrowing wolf spiders, of which seven are diagnosed and described as new: K. badkhyzica sp. nov. (♂♀, southern Turkmenistan), K. gromovi sp. nov. (♂♀, southern Uzbekistan), K. repetek sp. nov. (♂♀, eastern Turkmenistan), K. shmatkoi sp. nov. (♂♀, northern Ciscaspian region and Azerbaijan), K. tashkumyr sp. nov. (♂, Kyrgyzstan), K. turanica sp. nov. (♂♀, Turkmenistan), K. zyuzini sp. nov. (♂♀, Uzbekistan). Two generic transfers are proposed: Karakumosa alticeps (Kroneberg, 1875), comb. nov. and K. medica (Pocock, 1889), comb. nov. (both ex HognaSimon, 1885). Lectotypes are designated for Tarentula alticepsKroneberg, 1875 (♂) and T. medicaPocock, 1889 (♂). The localities of all Karakumosa species are mapped, and an identification key is provided as well. A short overview of the fauna and diversity of the fossorial Lycosidae of Central Asia is given.
