Abstract

Allocosa Banks, 1904, with type-species Lycosa funerea Hentz, 1844, is diagnosed on the presence of apomorphic characters in the external genitalia, and is hypothesized to represent the sister-group of the remaining North American lycosine genera. Eighteen species are found in North and Central America, namely, A. funerea (Hentz), A. mulaiki (Gertsch), comb, n., A. sublata (Montgomery), A. chamberlini (Gertsch), A. pylora Chamberlin, A. furtiva (Gertsch), comb, n., A. absoluta (Gertsch), comb, n., A. floridiana (Chamberlin), A. apora (Gertsch), A. noctuabunda (Montgomery), A. panamena Chamberlin, A. chamberlini (Gertsch), A. mokiensis (Gertsch), A. subparva sp. n., A. parva (Banks), A. veracruzana (Gertsch and Davis), A. utahana sp. n., and A. mexicana (Banks), comb. n.

Résumé

Le genre Allocosa Banks, 1904, avec son espèce-type Lycosa funerea Hentz, 1844, est défini sur la présence des caractères apomorphiques qui se trouve dans les génitalia extérieurs. Le genre est compris de représenter le groupe-soeur des autres genres des Lycosinae de l'Amérique du Nord. Dix-huit espèces se trouvent en Amérique du Nord et l'Amérique Centrale. Ces espèces ne seront par répétées ici et on n'a qu'à consulter l'abstrait ci-dessus pour la liste détaillée.
