Treatment

Porrhomma marphaense Wunderlich, 1983 — Wunderlich (1983): p. 230, Figs. 25–26 View FIGURE 25 View FIGURE 26 (descr. ♀).

Material examined. Holotype ♀, NEPAL: Thakkola, Alt-Marpha, 3100–3200 m, leg. J. Martens, 6–7 Jul 1973, SMF (31669), vulva mounted separately.

Comments. The species was described according to a female collected in Nepal. “Nach der Epigynum bestehen Beziehungen zu Porrhomma kulczynskii , nunamo und pallidum ” ( Wunderlich, 1983). The vulva of P. boreale (= nunamo , kulczynskii ) is fundamentally different. The examined vulva is similar to those of P. pallidum or P. egeria . However, a male is unknown, and it is impossible to decide on the species identity without a male. At present, we must consider this species as species inquirenda and the name Porrhomma marphaense to be a nomen dubium.
