The Caribbean biodiversity hotspot harbors vast reserves of undiscovered species. A large-scale inventory of Caribbean arachnids (CarBio) is uncovering new species across the arachnid tree of life, and allowing inference of the evolutionary history that has generated this diversity. Herein we describe ten new species of (Oonopidae, or goblin spiders), from Hispaniola: , , , , , , , , and The occurrence of the pantropical type species (Simon, 1891) is reported and new localities are given for: (Bryant, 1948), (Platnick & Dupérré, 2009) and (Platnick & Dupérré, 2009). Molecular phylogenies indicate substantial genetic divergence separating these taxa. This work adds to evidence that the depth of diversity in the Caribbean biodiversity hotspot is particularly striking for tiny taxa living in leaf litter.
加勒比生物多样性热点地区蕴藏着大量未被发现的物种。一项对加勒比地区蛛形纲动物的大规模清查(CarBio)正在揭示整个蛛形纲生命树上的新物种,并有助于推断产生这种多样性的进化历史。在此,我们描述了来自伊斯帕尼奥拉岛的10种新的扁蛛科(即妖面蛛)物种: 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 和 。报告了泛热带种类(西蒙,1891年)的出现情况,并给出了 (布莱恩特,1948年)、 (普拉特尼克和迪佩雷,2009年)和 (普拉特尼克和迪佩雷,2009年)的新分布地点。分子系统发育表明,这些分类单元之间存在显著的遗传差异。这项工作进一步证明,对于生活在落叶层中的微小分类单元而言,加勒比生物多样性热点地区的多样性深度尤为显著。
