Zodarion asiaticum Tyshchenko, in Marikovski & Tyshchenko 1970: 199, fig. 1 (♂ ♀).

Material examined. KAZAKHSTAN: Jambyl Region: 1♂ (ZMMU), Korday Dist., 10 km SE of Korday Vil., Yeradzhy well, [43°02'N 74°42'E], 20.04.1997 (A.V. Gromov) .

Description. See Marikovski & Tyshchenko (1970). Habitus of male as in Fig. 1A. Male palp as in Figs 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, 6A, 9A.

Comments. Previously illustrated only in the original description. The type material was collected from the nest of Polyergus rufescens (Latreille, 1798) ( Hymenoptera: Formicidae). Marikovski & Tyshchenko (1970) and Pekár (2009) described its hunting and courtship behaviours.

Distribution. Kazakhstan (type locality; Fig. 12A), Kyrgyzstan (Zonstein et al. 1996) and Tajikistan (Andreeva 1976). The record from Tajikistan is based on a singleton female that is most likely misidentified, and therefore not included in the map.
