Abstract

A spider survey in the understudied and endemic-rich Asir region of southern Saudi Arabia recorded two species of Oecobiidae. Oecobius asirensissp. nov. is described from the mountainous highlands. The new species exhibits marked differences in the morphology of the copulatory organs compared to the generotype, suggesting it may represent a distinct genus. The copulatory organs of Oecobius marathatus are also illustrated, to which the new species is compared. Additionally, Uroctea thaleri Rheims, Santos & van Harten, 2007 is reported for the first time from Saudi Arabia.

沙乌地阿拉伯石斛属一新种及石斛属首次记录（蜘蛛目：石斛科）。

在沙特阿拉伯南部未被充分研究且特有丰富的阿西尔地区进行的蜘蛛调查记录了两种蜘蛛。Oecobius asirensissp。11月是从多山的高地描述的。与属型相比，新种在交配器官的形态上表现出明显的差异，表明它可能代表一个不同的属。本文还对马拉塔乌斯的交配器官进行了图解，并与新种进行了比较。此外，Uroctea thaleri Rheims, Santos & van Harten， 2007年首次在沙特阿拉伯报道。

All types of taxonomic papers are considered, including theories and methods of systematics and phylogeny, taxonomic monographs, revisions and reviews, catalogues/checklists, biographies and bibliographies, identification guides, analysis of characters, phylogenetic relationships and zoogeographical patterns of distribution, descriptions of taxa, and nomenclature. Open access publishing option is strongly encouraged for authors with research grants and other funds.
