Popis: Genus Galeodes Olivier, 1791 Remarks: Although the new species has similar coloration with the species of Paragaleodes genus, it was included in Galeodes genus because it has prominently long extremities, and also male cheliceral flagellum is cultriform with the outline symmetrically broadened, as Turk (1960) indicates. The metatarsi of pedipalps are slimmer distally and the tarsi of pedipalps are pear-shaped, narrowed proximally. But, the species of Paragaleodes have short extremities and generally small body sizes. The male cheliceral flagella are cochleiform and two sides not symmetrically broadened. The width and length metatarsi of pedipalps been thickened more or less equally, and the tarsi of pedipalps are ovate. In this contribution, a new species of the speciose and complicated galeodid genus Galeodes is described based on male and female specimens. Hakkari Province in Turkey is neighbor with Iraq and Iran. Considering its geographical location, the diagnostic characters of Galeodes hakkariensis sp.n. were compared with all previously described Galeodes Olivier 1791 species from Turkey, and neighboring countries, Iran and Iraq, via the examination of literature published by Kraepelin (1901), Roewer (1934, 1941), Birula (1905, 1937, 1938), Turk (1947, 1960) and Kraus (1959). The new species is different from all previously described Galeodes species by considering setal arrangements of legs II���IV, opisthosomal sternites without ctenidia, and the spiniform mucron organ on the chelicerae of male. Bird et al. (2015) observed the mucron organ in both sexes in Galeodidae. However, the mucron organ that in males of the new species is spiniform is not so in females.
