dc.description.abstractFollowing a rapid biodiversity assessment of spiders in the arid western interior of South Africa, we report on the occurrence of some poorly known and new species of chrysilline jumping spiders. ๐˜๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ง๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ถ๐˜ด ๐˜ฑ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ด (Simon, 1901), ๐˜๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ด (Wesoล‚owska, 1986), ๐˜. ๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ด (Wesoล‚owska, 1986) and ๐˜”๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ถ๐˜ด ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ต๐˜ช Lawrence, 1927 are recorded from the Northern Cape Province for the first time, and ๐˜๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ต๐˜ช (Wesoล‚owska & Haddad, 2014) (Lesotho) and ๐˜๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ถ๐˜ด ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ด Wesoล‚owska, 1986 (Angola) are recorded from South Africa for the first time, both also from the Northern Cape. The hitherto unknown females of ๐˜๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ด (Wesoล‚owska, 1986) and ๐˜๐˜ค๐˜ช๐˜ถ๐˜ด ๐˜ฑ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ค๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ด Haddad & Wesoล‚owska, 2011 and the male of ๐˜”. ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ต๐˜ช are described for the first time.
