Data from: Jerzego, a new hisponine jumping spider from Borneo (Araneae: Salticidae)

A new genus and species of hisponine jumping spider from Sarawak, Jerzego corticicola Maddison sp. nov. are described, representing one of the few hisponine jumping spiders known from Asia, and the only whose male is known. Although similar to the primarily-Madagascan genus Hispo in having an elongate and flat body, sequences of 28s and 16sND1 genes indicate that Jerzego is most closely related to Massagris and Tomomingi, a result consistent with morphology. Females of Jerzego and other genera of Hisponinae were found to have an unusual double copulatory duct, which appears to be a synapomorphy of the subfamily. Two species are transferred from Hispo, Jerzego bipartitus (Simon) comb. nov. and Jerzego alboguttatus (Simon) comb. nov. Diagnostic illustrations and photographs of living spiders are provided.

本文记述了产自沙捞越的喜帕跳蛛亚科（Hisponinae）跳蛛1新属新种：Jerzego corticicola Maddison, sp. nov.。该类群为目前已知分布于亚洲的少数喜帕跳蛛亚科跳蛛之一，同时也是该亚科中唯一雄性被记录的类群。尽管该新类群与主要分布于马达加斯加的Hispo属相似，均具有长而扁平的躯体，但通过28S及16S ND1基因的序列分析可知，Jerzego属与Massagris属、Tomomingi属的亲缘关系最近，这一结果与形态学证据相吻合。研究发现，Jerzego属及喜帕跳蛛亚科其他类群的雌性个体具有罕见的双交配导管结构，该特征疑似为该亚科的共有衍征。此外，本文将原隶属于Hispo属的2个物种组合至Jerzego属：Jerzego bipartitus (Simon) comb. nov. 及Jerzego alboguttatus (Simon) comb. nov.。文中附有该类群的鉴别特征插图及活体蜘蛛照片。
