Note on species groups

Previous work on Panjange has identified three species groups, the nigrifrons group on Borneo ( Fig. 1 ), the lanthana group on the Philippines, and the widespread cavicola group (Sulawesi to northernAustralia) ( Deeleman-Reinhold & Platnick 1986; Huber 2011; Huber & Nuñeza 2015). From here on, we will deal only with the nigrifrons group. A separate paper on the lanthana group has recently been published ( Huber & Nuñeza 2015), and a molecular phylogeny of the entire genus and its closest relatives is in preparation (A. Valdez-Mondragón, D. Dimitrov, B.A. Huber, unpubl. data).
