한국산 밭고랑거미과(거미강: 거미목)의 분류학적 연구

Taxonomy of Korean Liocranidae (Arachnida: Araneae)

  현재까지 전 세계적으로 밭고랑거미과는 29속 163종이 보고되었으며, 국내에서는 4속 11종이 보고된 바 있다. 그러나 아직까지 밭고랑거미과에 대한 분류학적인 연구가 미흡하여 기재와 도해를 첨가하여 재정리하고자 한다.

&nbsp;&nbsp;The spiders of the family Liocranidae take a very important position from the historical point of view since the studies on spiders in Korea started from the family Liocranidae. Despite its significant and historical meaning, however, taxonomic studies on the spiders of the family Liocranidae have been poorly conducted to date. In Korea, the spiders of the family Liocranidae are relatively diverse and rich.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;A total of 4 genera belongs to the family Liocranidae. In this study, we reviewed the spiders of the family Liocranidae - a significant group - from the aspect of species diversity and from the historical point of view in the Korean Aranchnology.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;There are 11 species of the 4 genera currently recognized in Korea, and all of them are included in the review. During reviewing the articles including the original description, we could find that some terminologies are not in agreement according to authors of the articles, especially in the terminologies used to describe the body parts of type-specimen. In addition, a genus has been not its own Korean nomenclature though there is a scientific name of the genus.
