Abstract

The presence of the spider genus Dolomedes Latreille, 1804 in Türkiye is confirmed and first record of D. plantarius (Clerck, 1757) is given. Dolomedes is known from an old but unverified record in Türkiye and it remains absent from the latest checklists. Here, we briefly summarize the information on this genus in Türkiye with newly collected materials. A morphological diagnosis and comparative photographs of male and female are provided for D. plantarius. Also, an updated map of its distribution in Türkiye is given.
