Full TextAbstract
Two species of the spider genus Olios are recorded for the first time from the Middle East, namely O. sericeus (Kroneberg, 1875) from Afghanistan and Iran, and O. iranii (Pocock, 1901) from Iraq. Previously recorded species of Olios are shown to be misidentifications. A comparative diagnosis is provided for these two newly recorded species.
