A review of the West African genus Saraina (Araneae, Salticidae)

Abstract

The West-African genus Saraina is revised. The type species Saraina rubrofasciata Wanless {&} Clark, 1975 is redescribed based on its type material. Earlier records of S. rubrofasciata from Congo turned out to belong to two new species: viz., S. deltshevi sp. n. (male) and S. kindamba sp. n. (male female). A key to the males of the known species is provided.
