INTRODUCTION
The genus AlloclubionoidesPaik, 1992 was described based on the male with sclerotized tegulum, tegular apophysis, tibia length of male palp, interdistance between posterior median eye and posterior lateral eye, spiniation of legs and length of posterior spinneret from Korea (Paik 1992). A total of thirty-two Alloclubionoides species are distributed over a restrictive group of endemic species in Far East areas: seven in China, one in Japan, twenty in Korea and four in Russia (World Spider Catalog 2018).
During a intensive survey of the epigeic spider fauna in various ecosystems, a large number of the spiders in subfamily Coelotinae was collected by pitfall traps. Among them, four new species belonging to the genus Alloclubionoides were recognized. In this paper, A. hwaseongensis sp. nov., A. imi sp. nov., A. namhansanensis sp. nov. and A. nasuta sp. nov. are described with measurements and morphological illustrations as new species.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The external morphology was examined using a stereoscopic dissecting microscope (LEICA, S8APO) and illustrated. Photographs of body were taken with a CANON 650D with 60 mm macro-lens. Measurements of each part of the body were taken with an ocular micrometer scale and are recorded in millimeters. Scale bars in the figures are also recorded in millimeters. Leg and palp (left) measurements are given as “leg number - total length (femur, patella, tibia, metatarsus, tarsus)”. Leg spiniation was examined with left side. The internal genitalia of females were prepared with 10% of KOH solution for 6 hours and tissue pieces around it were removed with brushes and needles.
The descriptive terminology of male palp and epigyne and internal genitalia in the description follows Wang (2002) and Kim and Lee (2006). Abbreviations used are as follows: ALE=anterior lateral eye, AME=anterior median eye, PLE=posterior lateral eye, PME=posterior median eye, AER=anterior eye row and PER=posterior eye row in eye region; d=dorsal surface, v=ventral surface, p=prolateral surface and r=retrolateral surface in leg spiniation; AF=atrial hood; AS=atrial septum; CD=copulatory duct; CF=cymbial furrow; Co=conductor; EA=epigynal atrium; EH=epigynal hood; Em=embolus; EmT=embolus tip; FD=fertilization duct; RTA=retrolateral tibial apophysis; Sp=spermatheca; SpH=spermathecal head and Tr=trichobothrium in the figures. The examined specimens of this study were deposited in the collection of National Institute of Biological resources (NIBR), Korea.
