Genus Telema Simon, 1882 View in CoL
Telema Simon 1882: 205; Lehtinen 1967: 301; Gertsch 1973: 154; Yaginuma 1973: 17; Wang et al. 2012: 18; Dupérré and Tapia 2015: 191; Zhao et al. 2018a: 14.
Type species.
Telema tenella Simon, 1882 from southern France.
Diagnosis.
Telema resembles Telemofila but can be distinguished by the following: plate-shaped tibial glands (Fig. 1A View Figure 1 ; cf. Emerit 1984: fig. A) (vs. belt-shaped); lacking a cymbial apophysis (cf. Wang et al. 2012: fig. 2C) (vs. cymbial apophysis present); the endogyne is walking-stick shaped (cf. Wang et al. 2012: fig. 3C, D) (vs. bean-shaped or globular).
Description.
Total length: 1.24-1.48 (male), 1.06-1.90 (female). Carapace 0.45-0.78 long. In T. auricoma Lin & Li, 2010 and T. nipponica , carapace with radial shaded pattern, six eyes ringed with black, sternum dark brown, abdomen blue; in T. tenella , T. guihua Lin & Li, 2010, and T. wunderlichi Song & Zhu, 1992, carapace without pattern, eyes absent, sternum and abdomen bright brown. Leg formula: 1-2-4-3, tibia I 1.32-2.45, tibia with many plate-shaped glands (Fig. 1A View Figure 1 ; cf. Emerit 1984: fig. A). In male, length of cymbium> femur> tibia> patella; bulb ellipsoid, large relative to body; embolus short relative to bulb, duckbill shaped. Receptacle walking-stick shaped, with a few membranous tubes inside.
Composition.
Telema auricoma , T. guihua , T. nipponica , T. tenella and T. wunderlichi . The composition is supported not only by morphological characters but also by molecular phylogenetic analyses (Fig. 34 View Figure 34 ; T. nipponica is not included).
Distribution.
Eurasian disjunctive range, known from Southern Europe (France and Spain, one species) and East Asia (Japan and southwestern China, four species, sites 13-16 in Fig. 33 View Figure 33 ).
