Composition and distribution.

The Clubiona ternatensis group tentatively contains 33 species (see Table 4 View Table 4 ).

Comments.

This group was defined by Deeleman-Reinhold (2001) for Oriental species. However, the three first described species were placed in the genus Hirtia Thorell, 1881, and H. ternatensis was chosen as the type species by Thorell (1881). Simon (1897) synonymised Hirtia with Clubiona . The recently discovered species of the group are strikingly different from Clubiona pallidula (Clerck, 1757) (type species of Clubiona ). It seems that Hirtia should be resurrected in the future.
