Abstract

Dysderidae C. L. Koch, 1837 is reported from China for the first time. A new species of the genus Dysdera Latreille, 1804, D. dushengi sp. nov. from Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, is described based on both sexes. The new species is closely related to D. pamirica Dunin, 1992, a species known from adjacent Tajikistan.
