FIGURE 1. Male of Artoriopsis expolita comb. nov., the type species of Artoriopsis gen. nov., from MilingMoora Road near Great Northern Highway junction, Western Australia (WAM T 65652). TL 8.75 mm.

FIGURE 2. Artoriopsis expolita L. Koch. Male (SAM NN 16841 from 2 km WNW of Parawa, South Australia) and females (lectotype MHNT AR 824 from Brisbane, Queensland, and SAM NN 16838 from Windsor Gardens, South Australia); A male, prosoma profile in lateral view; B male eye pattern in frontal view; C, D left male pedipalp, ventral and lateral view; E left male pedipalp, apical part of bulb; F female epigyne, ventral view (MHNT AR 824); G, H female epigyne, ventral and dorsal view (SAM NN 16838). Scale bar: A 5.05 mm; B 2.40 mm; C, D 0.40 mm; E – H 0.30 mm.

FIGURE 3. Records of Artoriopsis expolita (L. Koch) comb. nov. in Australia. The record from northern Queensland is very doubtful. It was found with other species, e. g. Lycosa godeffroyi L. Koch, 1865, which also never have been found that far North.
