Aname, L. Koch, 1873

Wilson, Jeremy D., Harvey, Mark S., Simmons, Leigh W. & Rix, Michael G., 2025, An integrative systematic revision of the wishbone spiders (Araneae: Anamidae: Aname L. Koch, 1873) of subtropical and tropical eastern Australia, with the description of 55 new species, European Journal of Taxonomy 985, pp. 1-298 : 146

Minor Aname complexes from eastern Australia

Figs 1 , 4 , 13 , 94–104

Remarks

Here, we define minor complexes as those containing no more than three species, for which we have very little information. Minor complexes identified in this study include the callitra -complex (two species), the aurantella -complex (three species), the mariala -complex (two species), the flexicaudula - complex (two species), and the savannella -complex (two species). Only male specimens are known for these minor complexes. Because each contains so few species, we have not provided diagnostic keys to individual species within these complexes.

Fig. 1. Phylogeny and general map of eastern Australian Aname L. Koch, 1873. Left: IQ-TREE Maximum Likelihood phylogeny for the genus Aname with species groups sensu Rix et al. (2021) highlighted in grey, species complexes as defined in this study highlighted in colour, and showing the phylogenetic position of many of the species described herein, as well as some potential species (those with nicknames in quotation marks) that may turn out to be distinct, but did not meet our standards for description. Species groups that are not represented in eastern Australia are collapsed. Support values on the phylogeny show the results of 1000 ultrafast bootstrap replicates, and are only shown in cases where support was below 90%. Top-right: a map of subtropical and tropical eastern Australia, showing the locality of all Aname specimens included in this study. Bottom-right: a smaller phylogeny highlighting the higher-level relationships between species groups of Aname as recovered in this study.
