Abstract

Seven species of the spider family Hersiliidae Thorell, 1869 are included in this study. Four new species from two genera are described: Hersilia aoqin sp. nov. (♂♀), H. long sp. nov. (♀), H. sagada sp. nov. (♂♀), and Murricia caishen sp. nov. (♀). The genus Murricia, 1882 and two species, H. lelabah Rheims & Brescovit, 2004 and H. martensi Baehr & Baehr, 1993, are reported from China for the first time. H. yunnanensis Wang, Song & Qiu, 1993, syn. nov. is regarded as a junior synonym of H. sumatrana (Thorell, 1890).
