FE21624E098051DDA2F0C0029F70100D.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of this species can be readily distinguished from congeners by the thick and bent embolus, with transverse ridges (pine cone-like pattern in Fig. 5 A – B) near the tip. The thick embolus makes it similar to that of S. striatipes but differs by the bent embolus (straight in S. striatipes; see Figs 3, 4), the less pronounced indentations (deep indentations in S. striatipes; see Fig. 6), the absence of the large triangular-shaped tutaculum (present in S. striatipes; see Fig. 6), and the slightly pointing outward RTA (curved towards the cymbium in S. striatipes; see Figs 3, 4) as seen from the ventral side (compare Fig. 6 A vs. Fig. 6 D). The bent embolus is present in Xysticus mongolicus, and the bulb shows an overall similarity. However, the indentations (absent in X. mongolicus), the tegular bump Fig. 3 C (absent in X. mongolicus; see Fig. 3 F), and the twisted embolus as seen from the side (strongly bent in X. mongolicus) separate S. lendli from X. mongolicus. Female epigyne of S. lendli with an upside-down heart-shaped median septum (see Fig. 8 B), which is seemingly a plate with a pronounced anterior border (Fig. 8 A, C) with a clear indention on the posterior margin (Fig. 8 B, C, F), probably to accommodate the thin tip of the RTA (Figs 3 C, 7 A).	en	Gallé-Szpisjak, Nikolett, Gallé, Róbert, Szabó, Krisztián, Szűts, Tamás (2024): On the identity and placement of Xysticus lendli Kulczyński, 1897 (Araneae, Thomisidae): an integrative approach.

Hindlegs light in colour, almost white, with black dots mottled on the appendage. The proximal end of tibia IV and the distal end of the femur, patella, tibia, and metatarsus IV with dark rings.

3ACBEED5C9BF5EFBAE6A77472043AFF4.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males can be recognised by the bulb lacking apophyses (Fig. 6 A, D) or tegular apophysis (Gertsch 1953; Menge 1876; Lehtinen 2002). The tutaculum is triangle-shaped in this type of species. Tibia with two or three apophyses; VTA is simple and rounded; and RTA has a distinct pointed hook (Lehtinen 2002). Females can be recognised by the prominent septum (but can be absent; see Gertsch 1953). Both sex lateral eyes are 1.5 times larger than the median eyes and have light elevation (Menge 1876).	en	Gallé-Szpisjak, Nikolett, Gallé, Róbert, Szabó, Krisztián, Szűts, Tamás (2024): On the identity and placement of Xysticus lendli Kulczyński, 1897 (Araneae, Thomisidae): an integrative approach.

752F26E105205F228C6AEFA540282D22.taxon	distribution	Distribution. Nentwig et al. (2024) report this species from Europe to Central Asia. So far, all Central European records have turned out to be S. lendli. We could not examine the specimens used for the Ukrainian records by Polchaninova N., Prokopenko E. (2019), or the Russian records (Ponomarev 2022). Both ML and BI phylogenetic trees (Fig. 9, Suppl. material 1, respectively) place Spiracme lendli grouping with the type species of the genus, S. striatipes. In that group, S. triangulosus is a sister. We were unable to recover a monophyletic Spiracme, as S. durus and S. nigromaculatus grouped together but not with the type species. Given the limited use of a single mitochondrial gene in systematics and the low support values on the tree, we would not draw further conclusions regarding the genus limits.	en	Gallé-Szpisjak, Nikolett, Gallé, Róbert, Szabó, Krisztián, Szűts, Tamás (2024): On the identity and placement of Xysticus lendli Kulczyński, 1897 (Araneae, Thomisidae): an integrative approach.
