The first record of Micaria bonneti (Aranei: Gnaphosidae) in Mongolia

Abstract

<p><em>Micaria bonneti</em> Schenkel, 1963, a species known only from China, is reported from Mongolia. Conspecificity of this species with specimens from Hubei Province and the central part of Inner Mongolia (type locality) is doubtful. <em>M. mongunica</em> Danilov, 1997, a species known by the holotype female from Western Tuva, is most likely a junior synonym of <em>M</em>. <em>bonneti</em>. Erroneous data about the type locality of <em>M</em>. <em>bonneti </em>is corrected. The epigyne of <em>M</em>. <em>bonneti </em>is illustrated in detail, and its structure is discussed.<br /></p>
