Jäger, 1999 is a relatively large spider genus that currently comprises 141 species distributed worldwide. However, the genus remains inadequately studied because nearly half of the species are known from a single sex or juvenile specimens. Zhong, Jäger, Chen & Liu, 2019 was described, based on two male specimens from Damingshan National Nature Reserve, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China and no additional specimens have been recorded since.
Recently, new materials of huntsman spiders have been collected from Mt. Wuyishan, including specimens of both sexes. Several males were identified as , based on morphological comparison with the holotype. Based on morphological characters and DNA barcodes, we confidently matched the females and males as . Herein, is re-described, based on these new materials and the female is described and illustrated for the first time.
1999年描述的贾格尔蛛属是一个相对较大的蜘蛛属,目前包括141个物种,分布于世界各地。然而,该属仍未得到充分研究,因为近一半的物种仅知其单一性别或幼体标本。2019年钟、贾格尔、陈和刘基于采自中国广西壮族自治区大明山国家级自然保护区的两份雄性标本对其进行了描述,此后未再记录到其他标本。
最近,从武夷山采集到了新的高脚蛛科蜘蛛材料,包括雌雄两性标本。通过与正模标本进行形态比较,鉴定出几只雄性为[具体物种]。基于形态特征和DNA条形码,我们确定地将雌性和雄性匹配为[具体物种]。在此,基于这些新材料对[具体物种]进行重新描述,并首次对雌性进行描述和绘图。
