    Genus Coillina Yin & Peng, 1998 Type species by monotypy: Coillina baka Yin & Peng, 1998. Notes. This genus was originally characterized by having the retromargin of the chelicera with teeth separately standing (no keel or lamina), metatarsi of the hind legs without apical preening comb and the embolus of the male palp long and coiled (Yin & Peng 1998). Although only one male specimen of the type species, C. baka, was used as material for establishing this genus, we were able to add the following characteristics on the basis of the newly collected material of both sexes obtained from Myanmar: anterior lateral spinnerets with seven or eight cylindrical spigots, male abdomen with a distinct dorsal scutum, male palpal tibia with a sclerotized dorsal edge but without retrolateral apophysis, male palpal femur with a strong denticle and a peculiarly rounded, thumb-shaped (or mushroom-shaped) apophysis (Figs 11‒12), female genitalia with copulatory openings situated in the anterior part, long and spiraled insemination ducts and small, globular receptacles. In the original diagnosis, Yin & Peng (1998) suggested that Apodrassodes Vellard, 1924, Apophyllus Platnick & Shadab, 1984, and Fedotovia Charitonov, 1946 were similar genera to Coillina. Murphy (2007) put Coillina in the Echemus group, which consists of 26 genera, although its taxonomic status was not specified. In the Echemus group in the sense of Murphy, several species of Synaphosus Platnick & Shadab, 1980 have a filiform or long needleshaped embolus of the male palp (but its distal part does not extend into the alveolus of cymbium as in Coillina) and coiled or spiraled insemination ducts in the female genitalia. Of these, Synaphosus evertsi Ovtsharenko, Levy & Platnick, 1994 known from Ivory Coast, Indonesia (Bali) and Philippines (maybe including artificial distribution) has particularly no retrolateral tibial apophysis on the male palp, in common with C. baka. The relationship between Synaphosus and Coillina should be taxonomically verified.Published as part of Suzuki, Yuya, Aung, Mu Mu & Ono, Hirotsugu, 2021, First record of Coillina baka Ying & Peng, 1998 (Araneae: Gnaphosidae) from Myanmar, with a description of the previously unknown female, pp. 274-280 in Zootaxa 4984 (1) on page 275, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4984.1.20, http://zenodo.org/record/492717

    Epidius ganxiensis (Yin, Peng & Kim, 1999), new combination (Figs. 3 A–J, 7) Philodromus ganxiensis Yin, Peng & Kim, 1999: 356, Fig. 2 A–G (types in HNU, examined) Material examined. – 2 males, 3 females (HNU), Ganxi Township, Tongdao County (26°03'N 109°17'E), Hunan Province, China, coll. C. Yin, X. Peng and Y. Zhang, 1 Jun.1996. Description. – Male palp with a spatulate VTA and 6 macrosetae in a row at tibial apex, conductor transparent, twisted and concave at apex; embolus slender, apically hidden under the conductor. Epigyne with a pair of spatulate sclerotized plates posteriorly; copulatory openings slit like, copulatory ducts complexly twisted; spermathecae curved in n-shape. Diagnosis. – This species can be separated from E. gongi (Song & Kim, 1992) by: the atrium slit-shaped laterally (pit like medially); the ratio of length of palpal tibia to palp = 1.2 (5.0 in E. gongi). Distribution. – China (Hunan). Remarks. – The species was firstly placed under the spider family Philodromidae. However, the male palp has a spatulate VTA and a row of macrosetae, which are the typical diagnostic characters of the genus Epidius of family Thomisidae. Philodromus ganxiensis Yin, Peng & Kim, 1999, should be transferred to the genus Epidius as E. ganxiensis (Yin, Peng & Kim, 1999), new combination.Published as part of Tang, Guo, Yin, Changmin, Peng, Xianjin & Griswold, Charles, 2009, Six Crab Spiders Of The Subfamily Stephanopinae From Southeast Asia (Araneae: Thomisidae), pp. 39-50 in Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 57 (1) on page 44, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.450821
