Oxyopes lautus L. Koch, 1878

L. Koch, 1878, 1015-1017, Taf. 89 Fig. 3, Australien, Port Mackay, male HOLOTYPE (Mus. GODEFFROY Nr. 16497) (37) ( Rack 1961).

Note.

Koch described the species from a single male that was in poor condition ("fast völlig abgerieben", p. 1015) and had both palps removed. Oxyopids are often variable in colour and the genitalia need to be studied in order to reliably identify species. We treat this specimen as a nomen dubium.
