Abstract

During 2015 and 2016 several baboon spider specimens (Araneae: Theraphosidae) were collected in central Angola during surveys undertaken for the Okavango Wilderness Project. These collections represent range and habitat extensions for Pterinochilus Pocock, 1897, Ceratogyrus Pocock, 1897 and Phoneyusa Karsch, 1884. The new species Ceratogyrusattonitifersp. n. is described from female specimens and the distribution of genera mapped. Central and eastern Angola is severely under sampled for theraphosid spiders, with every species collected during the survey either being potentially new to science or representing a significant range extension for the genus.

安哥拉Theraphospidae（Araneae，Mygalomorphae）的新采集记录，以及一个引人注目的Ceratogyrus新种的描述

在2015年和2016年期间，在安哥拉中部为奥卡万戈荒野项目进行的调查中收集了一些狒狒蜘蛛标本(蜘蛛目:狐猴科)。这些标本代表了Pterinochilus Pocock(1897)、Ceratogyrus Pocock(1897)和Phoneyusa Karsch(1884)的范围和栖息地扩展。新种角鼻草属。从雌性标本中描述了N.，并绘制了属分布图。安哥拉中部和东部的兽角蛛样本严重不足，调查期间收集的每一种蜘蛛要么可能是科学上的新物种，要么代表了该属的重大范围扩展。

期刊介绍： African Invertebrates is an international peer-reviewed, open-access journal that focuses primarily on the taxonomy, systematics, biogeography, and palaeontology of Afrotropical invertebrates, whether terrestrial, freshwater or marine. Aspects concerning biology, ecology, and conservation may also be considered where these relate to the primary focus areas. Papers dealing solely with biology, ecology, physiology, pests and pest control should be submitted elsewhere.
