Abstract:

Simitidion agaricographum (LEVY & AMITAI) nov. comb. was recollected in Cyprus in both sexes. The species is closely allied to S. simile (C.L. KOCH) and is therefore removed from Theridion. Its previously unknown male is presented, correct matching of the sexes was proved by observation on sexual behaviour. Presumably S. agaricographum has been mixed up earlier with its congeners, S. simile and S. lacuna WUNDERLICH, 1991.
