C12C0551E1B95D9FA3F54A9611135E33.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of Macrothele nanning sp. nov. resemble M. multispine by having blunt spines in lateral and dorsal views of palpal tibia and similar palpal bulb morphology, and females of the new species are similar to others by the apically globose receptacula bent inwards apically. Male of M. nanning sp. nov. can be distinguished from M. multispine by having the tibia with eight blunt spines in prolateral view and seven in dorsal view, the blunt spines extending onto patella (vs three blunt spines in prolateral view and one in dorsal view and blunt spines absent from patella). Females can be differentiated from M. multispine by the short, robust copulatory ducts and receptacula expanded basally (vs copulatory ducts long and narrow and receptacula base unexpanded).	en	Lin, Yejie, Yan, Xunyou, Li, Shuqiang, Ballarin, Francesco, Chen, Haifeng (2021): Five new species of Macrothele Ausserer, 1871 from China (Araneae, Macrothelidae).

92B263B3001E55C98FD6FAF5961073F1.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of Macrothele emei sp. nov. resemble those of M. digitata Chen, Jiang & Yang, 2020 and M. palpator Pocock, 1901 in having the conical spines dorsally on palpal tibia and the embolus of the same shape. Females of the new species resemble M. palpator by the G-shaped receptacula with long copulatory ducts. Males of M. emei sp. nov. can be distinguished from M. digitata and M. palpator by the presence of seven short spines visible in dorsal view on the distal third of the palpal tibia in dorsal view (vs 13 - 15 long spines in M. digitata and in M. palpator). Females of M. emei sp. nov. can be differentiated from M. palpator by the ratio of the length of the copulatory ducts after the second turn almost 1: 2 and the second turn expanded (vs length ratio of the copulatory duct folds 1: 3, second fold unexpanded in M. palpator).	en	Lin, Yejie, Yan, Xunyou, Li, Shuqiang, Ballarin, Francesco, Chen, Haifeng (2021): Five new species of Macrothele Ausserer, 1871 from China (Araneae, Macrothelidae).

C80A331EE97C5ECA8CAB7133E82EE518.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Male of Macrothele hanfeii sp. nov. resemble those of M. holsti Pocock, 1901 and M. multispine Wang, Li & Yang, 2019 by having similar bulb shape. Females of M. hanfeii sp. nov. resemble the aforementioned species by the apically globose receptacula that bend inwards. Male of M. hanfeii sp. nov. can be distinguished from M. holsti and M. multispine in that the palpal tibia bear seven blunt spines in prolateral view and nine in dorsal view that extend onto the patella and a large spine present in the center of the area with blunt spines (vs 14 blunt spines in prolateral view and 13 in dorsal view in M. holsti, and three blunt spines in prolateral view and one in dorsal view in M. multispine; large spine absent in M. holsti and M. multispine, and in M. multispine, the blunt spines are absent on the patella). Females differ from those of M. holsti and M. multispine by the short, robust copulatory ducts and the receptacula apically teardrop shaped (vs copulatory ducts long and thin and receptacula apically oval in M. holsti and M. multispine).	en	Lin, Yejie, Yan, Xunyou, Li, Shuqiang, Ballarin, Francesco, Chen, Haifeng (2021): Five new species of Macrothele Ausserer, 1871 from China (Araneae, Macrothelidae).

452802825B9B5D3EBFD9B75D72ACC964.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Macrothele hungae sp. nov. resembles M. gigas (Figs 13 D, 14 D, 15 C, D) by the large size, the needle-shaped embolus of the male, and the apically globose receptacula and the S-shaped copulatory ducts of the female. Male of M. hungae sp. nov. can be distinguished from those of M. gigas by three rows of 22 - 25 lyral spines on the maxillae, palpal tibia with six spines in prolateral view, and embolic base expansion begins at one of the apical thirds of the bulb (vs 11 lyral spines in two rows, tibia with 1 or 2 spines in prolateral view, expansion of embolic base begins at the halfway point of the bulb). Females can be differentiated from those of M. gigas by having the base of copulatory ducts as wide as the receptacula and the receptacula apically oval (vs the ratio of the width of the base of copulatory ducts to the width of the terminus almost 2: 3, and the receptacula apically teardrop shaped in M. gigas).	en	Lin, Yejie, Yan, Xunyou, Li, Shuqiang, Ballarin, Francesco, Chen, Haifeng (2021): Five new species of Macrothele Ausserer, 1871 from China (Araneae, Macrothelidae).

Males of Macrothele limenghuai sp. nov. resemble those of M. monocirculata Xu & Yin, 2000 and M. raveni Zhu, Li & Song, 2000 by having similar palpal bulb morphology, but they can be distinguished by having five tibial spines visible in prolateral view, the embolus as long as the tibia, and the base of the embolus with a depression (vs tibia with four spines in M. monocirculata or three spines in M. raveni visible in prolateral view, embolus notably longer than tibia and without basal depression). Females of Macrothele limenghuai sp. nov. resemble those of M. monocirculata and M. raveni by the receptacula coiling almost 360 °, but they can be differentiated by the copulatory ducts bending outward medially (120 °) (vs copulatory ducts straight in M. monocirculata and bent 90 ° in M. raveni).	en	Lin, Yejie, Yan, Xunyou, Li, Shuqiang, Ballarin, Francesco, Chen, Haifeng (2021): Five new species of Macrothele Ausserer, 1871 from China (Araneae, Macrothelidae).
