D.-X. Song’s research while affiliated with Inner Mongolia University and other places

... A total of 64 samples from 28 batches have been collected from field surveys or market commodity in China since 2015. All samples were identified into five nominal species according to characteristics recorded by Siriwut et al. [1], Kang et al. [2], Song et al. [18], and Zhang and Wang [19]. e sample information is summarized in Table 1. ...

... Remarks. According to Attems (1930) and Chao (2002), tergites 5-20 have two complete paramedian sutures, but Song et al. (2004) reported these sutures at tergites 4-21 and oblique sutures in the anterior corners of tergites 3-4. The recently studied specimens have complete paramedian sutures at tergites 8-18 (Fig. 2C). ...

... Eight species have been recorded in China (Lewis 2003;Song et al. 2005;Niu et al. 2021), all assigned to the subgenus Otostigmus. These species belong to four of the nine groups mentioned by Lewis (2010): ...

... Tanikawa (2000) placed four Japanese orb-weaving spider species, three of which were previously listed in Zilla C.L. Koch, 1834, into Eriophora Simon, 1864, after he added these species to Scharff & Coddington's (1997) comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of orbweaving spiders. This generic placement was later adopted for Chinese and Taiwanese species of similar morphology (Chang & Tso, 2004;Zhang, Zhu & Song, 2006). However, Tanikawa (2000) had already noted considerable differences in genital morphology and eye pattern between the Asian and true Eriophora. ...

... The type species P. bimaculata was reported by Thorell in 1891, P. brevipalpus was originally described as Epidius brevipalpus (Simon 1903). P. gongshan, P. nigra, and P. tengchong were originally placed in the genus Sanmenia (Yang et al. 2006;Tang et al. 2009). Pharta was revised by Benjamin (2011). ...

... The wolf spider, Pardosa pseudoannulata (Araneae: Lycosidae), primarily feeds on a variety of agricultural pests such as planthoppers, leafhoppers, and other Lepidoptera pests (Preap et al., 2001;Wang et al., 2006;Huang et al., 2018). It is wide-spread, has a high adaptability to its environment, and is commonly found in moist habitats at the edges of bodies of water (Yang et al., 2018(Yang et al., , 2022Wang et al., 2021;Lv et al., 2021b). ...

... Regarding Sosybius, our results corroborate the hypothesis of its close relationship with Platyoides (Wunderlich, 2008). Zhu et al. (2006) showed that a short embolus with wide base in the male palp is an important diagnostic character for Plator. This distinctive embolic shape was found to be present in the new fossil as shown by the microCT data. ...

... After that, only one additional species was described from Far East Russia by Mikhailov (2003), C. sichotanica Mikhailov, 2003. Until now, only one species has been recorded from China: C. interjecta L. Koch, 1879Song et al. 1999;Tang et al. 2005;World Spider Catalog 2022). While examining spiders collected from Jiugong Mountain Nature Reserve of China, we came across some specimens from the Clubiona reclusa-group, which are described here as belonging to a new species: Clubiona qianlei sp. ...

... Atypus also resembles Calommata by having a straight, spike-like embolus and a straight, broad, lobular conductor in males [5] but differs by the distally widened con-ductor, an almost rounded palpal bulb and an acuminate palpal cymbium in males ( Figure 3E,G-K) (vs. a slender conductor, irregular palpal bulb and truncated palpal cymbium in Calommata) (see figure 6f in Li et al. 2022 [1]); and by receptacula without distinct granules in females ( Figure 4) (vs. receptacula with granules, overall like cauliflowers in Calommata (see figure 7f-g in Li et al. 2022 [1] Figure 3E,G-K with Zhu et al. 2006: figures 108-110 [17]) but can be distinguished by the presence of a wide triangular space between the embolus and conductor in lateral views ( Figure 3H-K), the first pair of sigilla being obviously larger than the second, and the fourth pair being oval and oriented vertically ( Figure 3D) (vs. no apparent space between the embolus and conductor in lateral views, the first and second pairs of sigilla almost equal in size, and the fourth pair nearly top-shaped and inclined in A. tibetensis) (see figures 107-110 in Zhu et al. 2006 [17]). ...
