Abstract

The taxonomy of crab spiders (Thomisidae) has been the focus of many reviews, adding new genera such as Ibana and Crockeria while synonymising Ascurisoma with Cebrenninus, and describing many new species. A collection of crab spiders from Jambi Province (Sumatra, Indonesia) revealed further diversity, resulting in the description of a new genus, Rangkayo Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, gen. nov., and five new species: Crockerianeofelis Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov. (♂♀), Ibanasvarnadvipa Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov. (♂♀), Phartaroseomaculata Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov. (♀), Rangkayohitam Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov. (♂♀), and Rangkayoperkaso Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov. (♂♀). Additionally, new records of Angaeuschristae Benjamin, 2013 (♂), Angaeusverrucosus Benjamin, 2017 (♂), Crockeriakinabalu Benjamin, 2016 (♂), Epidiuselongatus Benjamin, 2017 (♂), and Phartabimaculata Thorell, 1891 (♂♀) are provided for Sumatra, as well as high-resolution images of Cebrenninusmagnus Benjamin, 2016 (♂) and Cebrenninusrugosus Simon, 1887 (♀). The present study highlights the considerable biodiversity of tropical crab spiders and underscores the importance of continued taxonomic and ecological research in Southeast Asia in general, and the Indonesian archipelago in particular.

Expanding苏门答腊岛蟹蛛（蜘蛛目，蟹蛛科）的分类学：一个新属，五个新种和区域记录。

蟹蛛（Thomisidae）的分类已成为许多综述的焦点，增加了Ibana和Crockeria等新属，并将Ascurisoma与Cebrenninus同义词化，并描述了许多新种。在印度尼西亚占比省收集的蟹蛛进一步显示了多样性，导致了一个新属Rangkayo Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, gen. nov.和五个新种的描述：Crockerianeofelis Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov.（♂♀），Ibanasvarnadvipa Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov.（♀），Phartaroseomaculata Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov.（♀），Rangkayohitam Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov.（♀），和Rangkayoperkaso Dhiya'ulhaq & Benjamin, sp. nov.（♀）。此外，本研究还为苏门答腊岛提供了angaeuschriststae Benjamin， 2013（♂）、Angaeusverrucosus Benjamin, 2017（♂）、Crockeriakinabalu Benjamin, 2016（♂）、Epidiuselongatus Benjamin, 2017（♂）和Phartabimaculata Thorell， 1891（♂）的新记录，以及Cebrenninusmagnus Benjamin， 2016（♂）和Cebrenninusrugosus Simon， 1887（♀）的高分辨率图像。本研究强调了热带蟹蛛丰富的生物多样性，并强调了在整个东南亚，特别是印度尼西亚群岛继续进行分类和生态研究的重要性。
