Chinattus tibialis ( Żabka, 1985) ( Figs 3A–B , 4A–F , 7A )

Phintella tibialis Żabka, 1985: 430 , figs 442, 443, 454 (♂); Peng et al., 1993b: 161, figs 565–568 (♂); Song & Li, 1997: 437, figs 48A, B (♂).

Habrocestoides tibialis : Peng & Xie, 1995: 61, figs 29–34 (♂ ♀, transferred from Phintella ); Song et al., 1999: 512, figs 298E, F, L, M (♂ ♀).

Chinattus tibialis : Logunov, 1999: 147 (transferred from Habrocestoides , considered as a senior synonym of Ha. geminus ); Yin et al., 2012: 1345, figs 728a–f (♂); Peng, 2020: 69, figs 30a–f (♂ ♀).

Heliophanus geminus Song & Chai, 1992: 78 , figs 4A–C (♀); Song & Li, 1997: 433, figs 43A–C (♀).

Habrocestoides geminus : Song et al., 1999: 512, figs 298A, B (♀, transferred from Heliophanus ).

Type material of Chinattus tibialis . Holotype ♂, Vietnam, Cuc Phuong Province, Ninh Binh , tropical rain forest, ealcareous rocks, 7.VI.1966, R. Bielawski and B. Pisarski leg., not examined.

Type material of Heliophanus geminus . Holotype ♀ ( IZCAS-Ar9259 ) and paratypes 2♀ ( IZCAS-Ar9260 , Ar9261 ), China, Sichuan Province, Wulong County, 13.VI.1989, examined.

Diagnosis. Females of this species are similar to Chinattus furcatus (Xie, Peng & Kim, 1993) by the posterior small, triangular epigynal border, almost as long as the copulatory opening [see Suguro (2014: figs 25–27)]. However, this species can be distinguished by the straight copulatory duct [vs. S-shaped in C. furcatus , see Suguro (2014: fig. 26)] and the length of accessory gland almost as long as the width of copulatory duct [vs. accessory gland unobvious in C. furcatus , see Suguro (2014: fig. 26)]. For diagnosis of males, see Suguro (2014).

Redescription. See Song and Chai (1992, as Heliophanus geminus ) and Peng and Xie (1995, as Habrocestoides tibialis ). Photographs of the holotype of He. geminus is given in Figs 3A–B , 4A–F , 7A .

Distribution. Vietnam, China (Fujian, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan).
