Remarks.

This species is distributed from the Iberian Peninsula east to the Baikal and north to Torne lappmark (Sweden) (Nentwig et al. 2023; WSC 2023). It is the first record of C. reclusa in the Caucasus (Nentwig et al. 2023; Otto 2023; WSC 2023). Clubiona reclusa belongs to the Clubiona reclusa -species group (for the species list, see Mikhailov 1995), from which C. stagnatilis Kulczyński, 1897 and C. subsultans Thorell, 1875, occur in the Caucasus (Nentwig et al. 2023; Otto 2023; WSC 2023). The males of this species group are characterized by a harpoon-shaped ventral process of the tibial apophysis and the presence of a protector on the bulb. Males of C. reclusa are distinguished from those of C. stagnatilis and C. subsultans by the shape of the conductor (conductor broad, with bifurcated top in C. subsultans; prolateral margin of conductor deeply grooved near apical part in C. stagnatsilis), shape and placement of the tegular apophysis (small-sized, strongly curved outwards conductor in C. stagnatsilis; medium-sized, straight, originating at about 11 o’clock in C. subsultans; large, straight, originating at about 12 o’clock in C. reclusa), and shape of the tibial apophysis.
