Abstract

Zaitunia arabica n. sp., the southernmost member of the genus, is described from Rub ‘Al Khali Desert, the United Arab Emirates. The new species is assigned to Z. persica species-group, and it is most similar to Z. medica Brignoli, 1982 in having solid receptacles, which are wider than long and have no stalks. Zaitunia arabica n. sp. differs from the latter species by the lack of a carapace pattern, having no leg annulation, by much smaller size, as well as by a different shape of the receptacles and by a smaller distance between them. Keywords: Arabian Peninsula, Aranei, Asia, Filistatinae, spiders, taxonomy.
