DAB0FA7E929F78586EA862F82C43C4AA.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Members of this genus can be easily separated from otherEvippinae genera by the fewer number of ventral tibial spines on leg I (3 pv & 2 rv, or 2 - 2 v), carapace lacking transverse depression (present in Evippa Simon, 1882) and lack of pseudo-articulation of tarsi (Fig. 13). Xerolycosa can be differentiated by the shape of their copulatory organs. Females have a short droplet-shaped septum (about as long as wide), while in Evippa the septum is long and has a well developed septal stem. The male palp in Xerolycosa has a shorter course of the seminal duct and a shorter embolus, which is only partly hidden by the tegulum.	en	Marusik, Yuri M., Kovblyuk, Mykola M., Koponen, Seppo (2011): A survey of the East Palaearctic Lycosidae (Araneae). 9.

DAB0FA7E929F78586EA862F82C43C4AA.taxon	description	Description. Medium-sized (5.5 - 7.5) dark coloured or spotty lycosids. Carapace spotty or dark coloured with lighter median band and two lateral stripes. Cephalic region not elevated. Chelicerae with 3 promarginal and 2 retromarginal teeth. Inner side of chelicerae with a kind of stridulatory file (Fig. 12). Femora with 3 dorsal spines, tibia and metatarsus with 2 dorsal spines, sometimes poorly developed, tibia and metatarsi with four or five ventral spines (3 pv- 2 rv or 2 - 2 v). Tarsi without transverse furrow. Male palp: cymbium with several apical spines; tegular apophysis shifted retrolaterally, with bill-like extension directed ventrally. Palea absent, embolus forming almost a circle, only partly hidden by tegulum. Epigyne: fovea (depression) absent, septum droplet-shaped, covered with hairs, almost as wide as high; stem short. Weakly sclerotized parts of epigyne are referred to here as windows (Wi).	en	Marusik, Yuri M., Kovblyuk, Mykola M., Koponen, Seppo (2011): A survey of the East Palaearctic Lycosidae (Araneae). 9.

3EDB9FC90D2A2153B8447F288EA86FB3.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The species differs distinctly from Xerolycosa mongolica by the carapace pattern, having a light longitudinal band and stripes. Males can be distinguished from those of Xerolycosa nemoralis by the shorter seminal duct, a bent free part of the embolus and a bent tip, a rounded (not pointed) process of the tegular apophysis, basal part higher than apical (equal in Xerolycosa nemoralis), and the lack of a tegular ridge. Females can be distinguished by the proportions of the epigyne (windows longer than wide, whereas in Xerolycosa nemoralis they are wider than long).	en	Marusik, Yuri M., Kovblyuk, Mykola M., Koponen, Seppo (2011): A survey of the East Palaearctic Lycosidae (Araneae). 9.

EF12B081435156BEFC715E397D8A270A.taxon	distribution	Distribution. The exact distribution of this species is unknown because the type locality is uncertain (Urga-Tsitsikar), and because of incorrect synonymisation its distribution in China is unclear. Xerolycosa mongolica is well documented from Tuva only.	en	Marusik, Yuri M., Kovblyuk, Mykola M., Koponen, Seppo (2011): A survey of the East Palaearctic Lycosidae (Araneae). 9.

261A9C5B9337D2AF6BF8EEE5C58FCEA9.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The species differs distinctly from Xerolycosa mongolica by the pattern of its carapace, having longitudinal bands and stripes, and by having the anterior median eyes situated more closely together (less than one diameter of AME, more than one diameter in Xerolycosa mongolica). From Xerolycosa miniata, males can be distinguished by their longer seminal duct, rounded embolus, the sharply pointed process of the tegular apophysis and by the proportions of the epigyne (windows wider than high, whereas in Xerolycosa miniata they are higher than wide). Xerolycosa nemoralis females possess 2 retrolateral spines on femur I whereas the other species have only 2 prolateral spines.	en	Marusik, Yuri M., Kovblyuk, Mykola M., Koponen, Seppo (2011): A survey of the East Palaearctic Lycosidae (Araneae). 9.
