Abstract

French arachnologist Eugène Simon is considered one of the most prolific arachnologists of all time. Unfortunately, Simon often provided very short descriptions with or without illustrations which makes recognition of his species difficult for subsequent taxonomists. Eugène Simon described 3,789 species of spiders in his career, and most of his type specimens are assumed to be held in the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris, France. We present here the images of eleven Mygalomorphae species described by E. Simon that were never thoroughly illustrated: Cyrtaucheniidae: Fufius albovittatus, F. atramentarius, F. ecuadorensis; Dipluridae: Masteria cavicola, Diplura riveti, and Linothele soricina; Halonoproctidae: Ummidia asperula; Idiopidae: Idiops argus, I. fulvipes, I. opifex and Theraphosidae: Heterothele caudicula.

摘要

法国蛛形学家欧仁·西蒙（Eugène Simon）被认为是有史以来最多产的蛛形学家之一。不幸的是，西蒙经常只提供非常简短的描述，有时甚至没有插图，这使得后来的分类学家很难识别他的物种。欧仁·西蒙在他的职业生涯中描述了 3789 种蜘蛛，他的大多数模式标本据信都保存在法国巴黎的国立自然历史博物馆。我们在这里展示了欧仁·西蒙描述的 11 种从未被充分描述的 Mygalomorphae 物种的图像：Cyrtaucheniidae：Fufius albovittatus、F. atramentarius、F. ecuadorensis； Dipluridae：Masteria cavicola、Diplura riveti 和 Linothele soricina； Halonoproctidae：Ummidia asperula； Idiopidae：Idiops argus、I. fulvipes、I. opifex 和 Theraphosidae：Heterothele caudicula。
