Comments.

Marinarozelotes is a genus of small to medium-sized (2–12 mm) Zelotinae spiders with 23 accepted species distributed in the Palaearctic (WSC 2024), most of which were previously classified under Zelotes and Trachyzelotes . Males of this genus differ from other Zelotinae by a large distally rounded base of the loop-like embolus and obliquely oriented or distally rounded terminal apophysis. Females are characterized by an M-shaped median epigynal ridge. Seven species occur in the Caucasus, including M. adriaticus (Caporiacco, 1951), M. barbatus (L. Koch, 1866), M. cumensis (Ponomarev, 1979), M. jaxartensis (Kroneberg, 1875), M. malkini (Platnick & Murphy, 1984), M. manytchensis (Ponomarev & Tsvetkov, 2006), and M. ponticus Ponomarev, 2022 (Otto 2022; WSC 2024).
