Updated checklist, origin, distribution, literature and genital drawings of the spiders of the Galápagos Islands

Belgian Journal of Entomology, 142:1-188.

The list of Galapagos spider species has been updated and now includes 161 species. We provide information on their synonyms and distribution. Existing literature is also mentioned for each species. The species illustrated were all captured by members of the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences on various missions to the Galapagos and identified by the first author, and are held in the collections of the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences.
