Subscribe/Renew Journal
Thorell established the family Oxyopidae in 1870 consisting of the type genus Oxyopes which was established by Latrielle in 1804. Walckenaer for the first time recorded the genus from Indian sub-continent in 1805. Remarkable works in India on the family Oxyopidae were done by Thorell (1887), Tikader (1965), Gajbe (1999,2000, and 2008), Biswas and Roy (2005). While examining the collections from plateau region of Satara Dist (Maharashtra), we found an Oxyopes species that is new to science. We diagnosed it and describe, illustrate here as sp.nov. in the present study under the name Oxyopes sataricus.
