摘要
A new spider genus, Ternatus n. gen., is erected to accommodate two new erigonine species from China, Ternatus malleatus n. sp. and Ternatus siculus n. sp. Descriptions and illustrations of the new genus and new species are provided. To test the phylogenetic placement within Linyphiidae, morphological data of the two new species were added to the matrices of two previous studies addressing the higher level phylogeny of erigonine spiders. The results of the cladistic analyses support the monophyly of the new genus and its sister group relationship to the genus Gonatium Menge, 1868.
