Apostenus humilis Bosselaers, 2009: 39, figs 1A-E, 2B-C, 8A (♂♀).

Material examined.

GEORGIA - Shida Kartli • 1♀; Gori, Kvernaki ridge; N41.9834°, E44.1495°; 641 m a.s.l.; Paliurus spina-christi dominated shrubland, under rocks; leg. Bulbulashvili N.; 04 April 2023; CaBOL-ID 1035450 . • 1♀; N41.9833°, E44.1504°; 493 m a.s.l.; Paliurus spina-christi dominated shrubland, under rocks; leg. Bulbulashvili N.; 20 May 2023; CaBOL-ID 1035493.

Remarks.

The examined material seems to correspond to the description (pale, unicolored, patternless abdomen) and drawings by Bosselaers (2009). It has a simple morphology, and identification by singleton females leaves some doubts, thus the male specimen is required for verification. Family Lycosidae Sundevall, 1833

Genus Evippa Simon, 1882
