Barrow Island Sac Spider Clubiona FP-171 (BWI sp. 1)
Discoverer: J.M. Waldock (2007)

Fauna Portal species: 171
Family: Clubionidae



Diagnosis

On Barrow Island, Clubiona FP-171 is most similar to Clubiona FP-9939 due to the abdominal 'fish-bone' pattern, however females of both species differ distinctly in genital morphology with sclerotised triangular parts on the epigyne in Clubiona FP-171, which are not present in Clubiona FP-9939. The male of this species is currently unknown.

Fauna Portal Records

The map shows all records that have been verified as part of the Fauna Portal project and may not represent the true distribution of a species. Specifically, for described species, check the link to the Atlas of Living Australia on this page for potential wider distributions. Fauna Portal Reference specimens and Linnean types are shown in red. If you identified a specimen that exceeds the distribution of an undescribed species as illustrated here, please contact the Fauna Portal team who can assist with the lodgement of the specimen in a public institution and display on the map.
