Popis: Haplodrassus typhon (Simon, 1878), comb. n. stat. n. Figs 181���189, 194���197, map 4 Drassus typhon Simon, 1878: 128, pl. 16, fig. 20 (♂♀). Drassodes macellinus: Simon, 1914: 209 (synonymy, here rejected). Types: Female lectotype from France, without further locality, Coll. Simon (MNHN AR9224); examined. Remarks. Drassus typhon was described on the male and female sex by Simon in 1878. Later, he placed it in the synonymy of D. macellinus, considering it ���une vari��t�� non constante��� (Simon 1914). The only material of this species in the MNHN is a female labelled ���AR9224 Drassodes typhon Simon E. Simon det.���. It fits with the description of the epigyne given by Simon (1878) (���vide m��dian en ovale plus allong�����), which is one of the main differences to distinguish H. macellinus from H. typhon. We designate here this specimen as lectotype. The other examined material attributed by us to this species (see below) shows some variation but is treated here as the same species. The male and female described below were collected only once at the same site in Portugal by A. Grabolle and are considered conspecific. One further male was collected in the Bouches-du-Rh��ne department in France and several females without males in Algeria, Morocco, Spain and Italy. Diagnosis. Males of Haplodrassus typhon are easily distinguished by the elongated, pointed tibial apophysis (Figs 186, 195) and the nearly straight embolic apophysis (Figs 184, 194). Females are closely related to H. dentifer sp. n., H. ovatus sp. n. and H. rufipes. They differ from H. ovatus by the converging anterior margin of the fovea in H. ovatus (Fig. 105), diverging in H. typhon (Fig. 187), from H. dentifer and H. rufipes by the denticulate margin of the fovea (Figs 40, 132). Description. Measurements: Male (n=3): Total length 4.7���6.0; carapace 2.18���2.70 long, 2.0 wide. Female (n=9): Total length 6.2���8.2; carapace 2.10���2.90 long, 1.48���2.30 wide. Colour: Thoracic part of carapace yellowish brown, cephalic part reddish brown; legs yellowish brown; sternum reddish brown; abdomen pale brown, some specimens with traces of dorsal chevrons. Male palp (Figs 183���186, 194���195): Tibial apophysis elongated, strongly asymmetric, with pointed tip; embolic apophysis nearly straight, shorter than embolus, with rounded top. Epigyne (Figs 187���189, 196���197): Hood weekly sclerotized, separated from pro-fovea by a straight line; profovea much shorter than the elongated fovea, with anterior margins diverging; areola wide, with large lateral pockets.
