Open-holed Trapdoor Spider Kwonkan FP-11279
Discoverer: B. A. Buzatto (2021)

Fauna Portal species: 11279
Family: Anamidae



Diagnosis

The genus Kwonkan has not been taxonomically revised in the Pilbara. Identification of male Kwonkan FP-11279 requires careful examination of the pedipalp. No other male Kwonkan from the Pilbara are currently listed on the Fauna Portal.

There are currently no sequence data available for Kwonkan FP-11279 and it is possible that one of the molecularly identified Pilbara species in the genus is conspecific.

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.
