Abstract

The genus Akela Peckham and Peckham, 1896 is revised. Akela scaloneta Rubio, Baigorria & Stolar, 2023 is synonymized with Evophrys melanoleucus Mello-Leitão, 1944. Akela zinha Ruiz & Bustamante sp. nov. from Brazil is described based on both sexes. New records are also given for Akela ruricola Galiano, 1999. After this revision, the genus is composed of four Neotropical species, plus one misplaced species from Pakistan, not treated herein. Variation in colour patterns and the morphology of epigynes within the genus is discussed. The position of secondary spermathecae is also discussed and compared throughout the Salticidae. The homology of epigynal coupling pockets within Freyina is also discussed.

Akela Peckham & Peckham, 1896（蜘蛛目：水蛭科：水蛭科）的分类学修订，对水蛭科的次级精子科和水蛭科的偶联袋同源性有了新的认识

《Akela Peckham和Peckham， 1896》被修订。Akela scaloneta Rubio, baiigorria & Stolar， 2023年与Evophrys melanoleucus mello - leit（1944年）同义。来自巴西的Akela zinha Ruiz &； Bustamante sp. 11 .是根据两性来描述的。1999年的Akela uricola Galiano也创造了新的记录。在此修订后，该属由四个新热带物种，加上一个来自巴基斯坦的错位物种组成，此处未讨论。在颜色模式的变化和形态的附生属内讨论。其次精囊的位置也被讨论和比较在整个萨尔科。本文还讨论了Freyina内的外旋偶联袋的同源性。

期刊介绍： Zoologischer Anzeiger - A Journal of Comparative Zoology is devoted to comparative zoology with a special emphasis on morphology, systematics, biogeography, and evolutionary biology targeting all metazoans, both modern and extinct. We also consider taxonomic submissions addressing a broader systematic and/or evolutionary context. The overall aim of the journal is to contribute to our understanding of the organismic world from an evolutionary perspective. The journal Zoologischer Anzeiger invites suggestions for special issues. Interested parties may contact one of the editors.
