Three new hypogean species of the Iberian genus Roncocreagris Mahnert, 1974 are described from mainland Portugal: R. borgesi sp. nov. and R. gepesi sp. nov. from caves in the Sicó massif, and R. occidentalis sp. nov. from caves in the Montejunto and Cesaredas karst plateau. This brings to nine the number of known hypogean species of the mostly Iberian genus Roncocreagris: five from Portugal and four from Spain. Ecological comments and new localities for some of the previously known species are also included.
1974年,马纳特(Mahnert)首次描述了伊比利亚半岛的穴居蜘蛛属(Roncocreagris)。本文从葡萄牙大陆描述了该属的三个新物种:来自西科地块洞穴的博尔热斯穴居蜘蛛(R. borgesi sp. nov.)和赫佩斯穴居蜘蛛(R. gepesi sp. nov.),以及来自蒙特朱托和塞萨雷达斯岩溶高原洞穴的西方穴居蜘蛛(R. occidentalis sp. nov.)。这使伊比利亚半岛穴居蜘蛛属已知的穴居物种数量增加到九个:五个来自葡萄牙,四个来自西班牙。文中还包括了一些先前已知物种的生态评论和新分布地点。
