Bioacoustics of Clubiona huaban

Diagnosis Females of C. huaban are similar to those of C. baimaensis Song & Zhu, 1991 by their globular primary spermathecae (Sp 1) and copulatory ducts (CD) with similar courses (Fig. 2 G and H; Yang et al. (2003) : figs. 4 A and B; Zhang (2018) : figs. 18-1 C and D), but can be recognised by: (1) posterior margin of epigynal plate distinctly protruding (vs. slightly protruding) (cf. Fig. 2 E and F and Yang et al. (2003) : fig. 4 A; Zhang (2018) : figs. 18-1 C); (2) secondary spermathecae (Sp 2) kidney-shaped, posteriorly slightly curved (vs. oval, not curved) (cf. Fig. 2 G and H and Yang et al. (2003) : fig. 4 B; Zhang (2018) : figs. 18-1 D). Males of C. huaban also resemble those of C. baimaensis Song & Zhu, 1991 in the general shape of the male palp. The palps of both species share similarly-shaped retrolateral tibial apophysis (RTA), but differ in the following: (1) embolar base process (EBP) subtriangular, inserted at retrolateral rim of embolar base (EB) (vs. tooth-shaped, inserted at anterior rim of EB) (cf. Fig. 3 B, D and E and Yang et al. (2003) : fig. 4 D; Zhang (2018) figs. 18-1 E); (2) embolus (E) relatively longer, extending basally for more than 3 / 4 tegulum length and terminating at approximately 4 or 5 o’clock position (vs. shorter, extending basally for ca. 1 / 2 tegulum length and terminating at approximately 3 o’clock position) (cf. Fig. 3 B, D and E and Yang et al. (2003) : fig. 4 D; Zhang (2018) figs. 18-1 E and G); (3) conductor (C) area relatively longer, approximately 4 / 5 tegulum length (vs. shorter, approximately 2 / 3 tegulum length) (cf. Fig. 3 B, D and E and Yang et al. (2003) : fig. 4 D; Zhang (2018) figs. 18-1 E and G).
