Zodarion trianguliferum Denis, 1952

Figures 68–69, 106–109

Zodarion trianguliferum Denis, 1952: 61, fig. 6 (Holotype ♀, deposited in MNHN: MOROCCO: Marrakech-Safi, Marrakech, Tizi n’Test, 30°51’52’’N, 08°22’40’’W, 2100 m a.s.l., leg. L. Berland, 1939—examined).

Remarks. At first, the type material of Z. trianguliferum was not found in the MNHN, but a tube containing one female and with a label corresponding with the name of the type locality of the species was present. The epigyne of the single specimen in the tube also corresponds with Denis’ figure and, as in similar cases, we therefore consider this to be the female holotype. Zodarion jeanclaudeledouxi sp. nov., Z. ogeri sp. nov. or Z. wesolowskae sp. nov. are possibly the unknown male of Z. trianguliferum .

Diagnosis. The species is recognized by the epigyne with a single antero-median pocket.
