Hi Spider people, and soon Arachnid people! Today we already have data on our #worldspidercatalog (version 23.0) of more than 50100 spider species! And we continue to grow in giant steps!





Rheims & Jäger (2022) revalidated the huntsman spider genus Sadala, describing three new species on it, and described the new Neotropical genus Meri, along with 20 new species! Also made some new taxonomic changes on these genera and Olios! More at: sites.google.com/view/arachnotr…
