Fig. 8 C, D, F and Fig. 11 D); (2) anterior keel of MS relatively wider, ~ 1 / 5–1 / 4 epigyne width (vs distinctly narrower, ~ 1 / 10–1 / 8 epigyne width) (cf.

(2022) described the holotype male of P. guiyang in Chinese in the original paper. Wang et al. (2024) later described the female of the species for the first time but did not provide a diagnosis and redescription for the male. Therefore, to date, the male of this species lacks an English description. Here we diagnose and describe the male in English for the first time. Newly available specimens indicate that the species is also distributed in Mayanghe National Nature Reserve in Guizhou Province (Fig. 23 A).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/5C66494BBC5E5EEAA427896890BAF57C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Male palp as in Fig. 12 D – F, epigyne as in Fig. 13 D, E.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>China (Guizhou, Hubei; Fig. 23), Korea.</p><p>Comments.</p><p>This species is easily confused with P. spinitarsis due to its similar genital morphology. Jang et al. (2024 a) described it as a new species based on specimens from Korea and pointed out that previous records of P. spinitarsis in Korea in multiple studies were likely misidentifications, most of which should be attributed to P. paiki . It appears that many records of P. spinitarsis in Chinese literature may also be misidentifications. However, since we have not examined the original specimens, our study is currently based on materials from Guizhou and Hubei provinces.</p><p>Long et al. (2022) reported P. spinitarsis as a new record for Guizhou Province based on specimens from Guiyang City but did not provide diagnostic illustrations. Upon re-examining the specimens from Long et al. (2022), we determined that they should all belong to P. paiki . Therefore, there is currently no confirmed record of P. spinitarsis in Guizhou. The newly available specimens indicate that this species is also distributed in Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve, Guizhou Province (Fig. 23 A).</p><p>Several studies have recorded the presence of P. spinitarsis in Hubei, such as Zhao (1993), Song and Zhu (1997), Song et al. (1999), Zhu and Zhang (2011), Yin et al. (2012), Zhang et al. (2022), but did not provide specific distribution points or coordinates. Additionally, the diagnostic illustrations provided are relatively crude and were not based on specimens from Hubei. Therefore, the reported distribution of P. spinitarsis in Hubei remains questionable. Our various field trips in Hubei have not yielded any P. spinitarsis specimens. In contrast, paired specimens of P. paiki were obtained from Jiugongshan National Nature Reserve (Fig. 23 B). This paper represents the first formal report of the distribution of P. paiki in Hubei Province.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/51A5EFBD0EDD54D4979AF4650B2C3157	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Long et al. (2022) reported it as a new record for Guizhou based on specimens from Guiyang but did not provide diagnostic illustrations. Newly available specimens indicate that the species is also distributed in Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve in Guizhou Province and Jiugongshan National Nature Reserve in Hubei Province (Fig. 23).

(2022) based on materials from several districts in Guiyang City. New specimens examined also indicate its distribution in the Fanjingshan Nature Reserve in Guizhou Province (Fig. 23 A). Many earlier studies, such as Song and Zhu (1997), Song et al. (1997), and Song et al. (1999) et al., recorded that this species was distributed in Hubei Province. However, only Song et al. (1997) specify its distribution in Jiuling Mountain (located within the current Yichang City), while the other studies did not provide specific distribution points or coordinates. Our recent survey, which included a re-investigation of the Jiuling Mountain area, shows that this species is distributed in at least three locations in Hubei Province: Jiuling Mountain, Qizimei Mountain, and Jiugong Mountain (Fig. 23 B). This species is widely widespread in China (occurring in several provinces across the country), so it is likely that there are more distribution points for this species within the province. This will require further investigation to clarify.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/ACE86CB8D43D5D55BF8A154AA2A266CC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This genus is one of the largest of Philodromidae and comprises 41 % of the total number of species of the family (WSC 2025).</p><p>Although Philodromus is rather well known for its high species diversity, the genus remains inadequately studied, and the species diversity is still insufficiently known (mostly related to its alpha taxonomy). The possible reasons include, but are not limited to the following: almost half of the species are described based on a single sex or juveniles (15 from males only, 79 from females only, eight from juveniles only) (WSC 2025); for many species described in earlier studies, original descriptions are rather brief, and illustrations are absent or inadequate (Long et al. 2022; WSC 2025); and the lack of available molecular data – we can obtain COI sequences for only 45 species through NCBI (2025).</p><p>The insufficiency of fundamental information in alpha taxonomy poses a significant obstacle to the advancement of beta taxonomy (i. e., phylogenetic studies). Several major taxonomic studies on a regional scale have been conducted, e. g., Dondale (1961, 1963), and Dondale and Redner (1968, 1969, 1975, 1976, 1978) for the North American species, Muster and his coauthors (Muster and Thaler 2004; Muster et al. 2007; Muster 2009), and Wunderlich (2012) for the European species; however, these revisionary studies often exclude species from Asia (potentially due to the aforementioned lack of foundational taxonomic information), and the debate on the group’s limits and internal structure of this family remains open (WSC 2025). According to the quite diverse copulatory structures of both sexes, different camouflage behaviours and habitat preferences, Philodromus sensu lato has been regarded as paraphyletic and needs to be split (Wunderlich 2012). However, we agree with Muster (2009) that the elevation of an autapomorphic species group would render Philodromus paraphyletic and in need of an extensive, large-scale review of the genus. Consequently, the present study follows the WSC (2025), and places all treated species in Philodromus sensu lato . We provide only the fundamental information on these species (such as detailed descriptions, supplementary illustrations, and DNA barcodes) for species delimitation, matching of sexes and future use. A review of the genus is not within the scope of this work.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B7C1840AFBB0593484F10AE3D37D649E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(2003) based on materials from Xishui National Nature Reserve in Guizhou. Subsequent literature has reported the distribution of this species in Henan and Hunan provinces (Zhu and Zhang 2011; Yin et al. 2012). Newly available specimens indicate that the species is also distributed in Guiyang City and Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve in Guizhou Province (Fig. 23 A), as well as Jiugongshan National Nature Reserve in Hubei Province (Fig. 23 B). This paper provides the first formal report of the species’ distribution in Hubei Province.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/FFF24DD002B45D6DBEC999D53444FF12	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, some species have extraordinarily intraspecific morphological variation and low levels of interspecific variation, and together with the insufficiency of alpha taxonomic information (lacking high-quality illustrations, detailed descriptions, and molecular data), have hindered species recognition and has resulted in several wrong descriptions and misidentifications (Efimik 1999).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/6BA9B40A88D7506FAA926CD4C5DD202A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
