Smeringopus principe Huber, 2012 Príncipe (Príncipe) Smeringopus thomensis Simon, 1907 Príncipe Pholcid spiders from the Lower Guinean region of Central Africa: an overview, with descriptions of seven new species (Araneae, Pholcidae) Bernhard A.

São Tomé and Príncipe (Príncipe)( Huber 2012). 75.  Smeringopus thomensis Simon, 1907. São Tomé and Príncipe(São Tomé) ( Simon 1907; Huber 2012).  With currently 25 species,  Spermophorais quite diverse in sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar, but only the widespread  S. kyambura Huber & Warui, 2012has previously been reported from Central Africa ( Huber & Warui 2012). Three additional species are here reported from Central Africa ( Fig. 34). Of these,  S. abibae sp. nov.and  S. akwamu Huber & Kwapong, 2013are very similar to each other and to the West African  S. dieke Huber, 2009.  Spermophora awalai sp. nov.appears most similar to a group of East African species (node 5 inAppendix 4 in Huber 2003a). A further undescribed species seems to occur on São Tomé and Príncipe(of Santo Antonio, 1 ♂, 1 ♀deposited in CAS). Females from Cameroon (Mt. Etinde, 1 ♀in USNM; near Oku, 1 ♀in pure ethanol in ZFMK, Cam 117) might represent further undescribed species.
