Abstract

Pholcus gosuensis sp. novo is described from the entrance zone of Gosu cave, Chungchengbuk-do, Korea. The species is characterized by male palpal organs with three expanded apophyses and developed callosity on procursus, two frontal apophyses of chelicerae and degrading appendix, and sclerotized arches on uterus externus. The species is related to P. crassus Paik 1978 and P. acutulus Paik, 1978 in having identical uncus and embolus but differentiated from those species by the combined characters of large apophyses and heavily sclerotized callosity on procursus, and structure of arches on uterus externus.

한국 고수동굴 입구지대에서 채집된 유령거미과 1신종, 고수유령거미(Pholcus gosuensis sp. nov,)를 기재한다. 본 신종은 매우 발달된 후측면부배엽(procursus)와 위턱의 전변과 측면 돌기, 퇴화된 구보조돌기(appendix)그리고 바깥자궁(uterus externus)에 있는 경질화된 알키스(arches)를 가지고 있다. 또한 비슷한 구돌기(uncus)와 삽입기를 보유한 한국 고유종인 부채유령거미와 목이유령거미를 닮았으나 수컷 후측면부배엽에 있는 큰 돌기들과 강하게 경질화된 켈로시티(callosity) 그리고 바깥자궁에 있는 경질화된 무늬들의 구조로 구별할 수 있다.
