Abstract

BACKGROUND: Sinopoda Jäger, 1999 is a relatively large spider genus that currently comprises 141 species distributed worldwide. However, the genus remains inadequately studied because nearly half of the species are known from a single sex or juvenile specimens. Sinopodacurva Zhong, Jäger, Chen & Liu, 2019 was described, based on two male specimens from Damingshan National Nature Reserve, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China and no additional specimens have been recorded since. NEW INFORMATION: Recently, new materials of huntsman spiders have been collected from Mt. Wuyishan, including specimens of both sexes. Several males were identified as S.curva, based on morphological comparison with the holotype. Based on morphological characters and DNA barcodes, we confidently matched the females and males as S.curva. Herein, S.curva is re-described, based on these new materials and the female is described and illustrated for the first time.
