Abstract
En 中文
Six new species, Pandercetes batak sp. nov. (male?), P. barisanensis sp. nov. (?; both from Sumatra, Indonesia), P. cheemai sp. nov. (male?; Laos), P. mindanaoensis sp. nov. (male; Philippines, Mindanao), P. jaegeri sp. nov. (?) and P. bataanensis sp. nov. (?; both from Philippines, Luzon) are described. The genus is recorded from Laos, Philippines and Sumatra for the first time. The discovery of P. cheemai sp. nov. represents the northernmost record for the genus range. Genus Pandercetes is re-diagnosed. For two species, P. longipes Thorell, 1881 and P. peronianus (Walckenaer, 1837), the distribution data listed in the World Spider Catalog was found to be inaccurate and has now been revised. Detailed descriptions, digital photographs and a distributional map of all new species are provided.
