KEY WORDS: spiders, Pirata, redescriptions, fertility, Crimea, Abkhazia. КЛЮЧЕВЫЕ СЛОВА: пауки, Pirata, переописания, плодовитость, Крым, Абхазия. ABSTRACT. Illustrated redescriptions are provided for 5 species of the genus Pirata Sundevall, 1833, of specimens from Crimea and Abkhazia: P. hurkai Buchar, 1966; P. hygrophilus Thorell, 1872; P. latitans (Blackwall, 1841); P. piraticus (Clerck, 1757) and P. tenuitarsis Simon, 1876. Illustrations of P. knorri (Scopoli, 1763) and P. piraticus from Bulgaria are presented for comparison with Crimean species. P. latitans and P. piraticus are recorded from Abkhazia for the first time. Data on the variation of body size, copulatory organs structure and fertility of studied species are provided. РЕЗЮМЕ. По экземплярам из Крыма и Абхазии даны иллюстрированные переописания 5 видов рода Pirata: P. hurkai Buchar, 1966; P. hygrophilus Thorell, 1872; P. latitans (Blackwall, 1841); P. piraticus (Clerck, 1757) и P. tenuitarsis Simon, 1876. Для сравнения даны рисунки P. knorri (Scopoli, 1763) и P. piraticus из Болгарии. P. latitans и P. piraticus впервые отмечены для Абхазии. Приведены сведения по изменчивости изученных видов в размерах, деталях строения копулятивных органов и в плодовитости. Polchaninova & Prokopenko, 2007]. However, accurate record lists eight Ukrainian species only, because of the erroneous record of P. cereipes, which was the misidentification of Evippa apsheronica Marusik, Guseinov et Koponen, 2003 [Ponomarev, personal communication]. Four species of Pirata were recorded from Crimea: P. hurkai, P. latitans, P. piraticus and P. tenuitarsis [ Spassky, 1927; Charitonov, 1932; Mikhailov, 1997; Kovblyuk, 2004a, 2007]. Seven species were reported from Caucasus: P. hurkai, P. hygrophilus, P. insularis Emerton, 1885, P. knorri, P. latitans, P. piraticus, P. piscatorius [Ovtsharenko, 1979; Mikhailov, 1997, 1998; Guseinov, 1999; Marusik et al., 2003; Ponomarev, Mikhailov, 2007; Ponomarev et al., 2008; Kovblyuk et al., 2011]. Thus, Pirata species in Crimea and Caucasus are studied more or less completely. Structures of copulatory organs in Pirata species are poorly known. Except some works [Kronestedt, 1980], most authors made schematic drawings of bulbus and epigyne, without details of their structure. For many Pirata species (for example: P. hurkai and P. latitans) embolar part of bulbus has been never studied and illustrated. The goal of this paper is detailed re-descripition and illustration of copulatory organs of Pirata species known from Crimea and Abkhazia, and to provide information about new records and variations of body size, copulatory organs and fertility for each species.

Introduction
The genus Pirata contains 91 described species worldwide (except Australia and New Zealand) [Platnick, 2010]. The type species of the genus is Araneus piraticus Clerck, 1757. Eight species of Pirata are known from Central Europe [Heimer & Nentwig, 1991], 15 species are reported the former USSR [Mikhailov, 1997] and nine species are reported from Ukraine: P. cereipes (C.L. Koch, 1878), P. hurkai, P. hygrophilus, P. knorri, P. latitans, P. piraticus, P. piscatorius (Clerck, 1757), P. tenuitarsis and P. uliginosus (Thorell, 1856) [Mikhailov, 1997, 1998; Kovblyuk, 2004a, 2007;

Material and Methods
Specimens for this study were collected in Crimea (during 20002008) and Abkhazia (July 2008 and July August 2009). Specimens of P. knorri and P. piraticus from Bulgaria (courtesy of Dr Christo Deltshev) were used as comparative material.

A.A. Nadolny, M.M. Kovblyuk Illustrations were made using reflecting and transmitted light microscopes. Illustrations of epigynes were made after maceration in KOH 20% water solution. Coloration was described from specimens preserved in 75% ethanol/water solution with added glycerin (9:1 by volume). Legs and palpal segments were measured after their separation from the cephalothorax. All measurements are in mm. All scale bars are equal 0.1 mm.

The collectors names are abbreviated as follows: A.N. A.A. Nadolny; E.S. E.Yu. Sviridenko; G.P. G.A. Prokopov; M.K. M.M. Kovblyuk; O.K. O.V. Kukushkin. All specimens are deposited to Zoology Department, V.I. Vernadsky Taurida National University, Simferopol, Ukraine, curator of collection M.M. Kovblyuk (TNU) and Institute of Zoology in Sofia, Bulgaria, curator of collection Ch. Deltshev (IZS). Abbreviations used in the text: a apical; d dorsal; pl prolateral; rl retrolateral; v ventral. Terms and abbreviations for genital descriptions are adopted from T. Kronestedt [1980], H. Tanaka [1986, 1988] and D. Logunov [1998]. Definitions of development stages are adopted from M. Downes [1987]. Abbreviations on figures: bh basal haematodocha; co copulatory opening; dh distal haematodocha; e embolus; fd fertility duct; re receptacles (spermathecal reservoirs); s epigynal septum; sh shell; st subtegulum; tg tegulum; tg.ap tegular apophysis; tl.ap terminal apophysis; tl.pt terminal part of bulbus.

DIAGNOSIS. P. hurkai is similar to P. knorri and P. latitans. Males are distinguished by the shape of tegular apophysis. Retrolaterally directed lobe of tegular apophysis in P. hurkai (Figs 1, 18) is narrower than in P. knorri (Figs 2, 80) and P. latitans (Figs 3, 84). The tegulum of each of these species has a tooth; however, the drawing of P. knorri in Tanaka [1988: f. 46] depicts the tegulum without tooth. P. hurkai males have a number of thick thorns located retrolaterally on palpal tibiae (Fig. 6), but these are absent in P. knorri and P. latitans. Females of P. latitans (Figs 12, 9093) can be easily distinguished from P. hurkai (Figs 10, 2931) and P. knorri (Figs 11, 3234) by the spherical shape of receptacles. Epigynes of P. hurkai and P. knorri are very similar and difficult to distinguish (they differ in shape of receptacles).

Females of P. hygrophilus (Figs 63, 7677) have narrower epigynal septum than P. uliginosus; P. hiroshii has no septum in epigyne [Tanaka, 1986: f. 14; Tanaka, 1988: f. 4144]. DESCRIPTION.

DIAGNOSIS. Holarctic species P. piraticus is close to European-Central Asian P. tenuitarsis and East Palaearctic P. praedo (Kulczynski, 1885). Three papers directly concerned differences between P. piraticus and P. tenuitarsis [Michelucci & Tongiorgi, 1975; Kronestedt, 1980; Snazell, 1983]. Differences between P.

tenuitarsis and P. praedo are shown by Logunov [1992: f. 6]. These similar species are difficult to be distinguished from each other: they differ in the shape of tegular apophysis, embolar part of bulbus and the shape of epigyne and receptacles. Males of P. piraticus (Fig. 4) have larger tegular apophysis than those in P. tenuitarsis (Fig. 5) and P. praedo [Kronestedt, 1980: f. 2 A; Snazell, 1983: f. 12; Tanaka, 1988: f. 3; Logunov, 1992: f. 6].

tegular apophysis in P. tenuitarsis is narrower than that in P. praedo [Logunov, 1992: f. 6]. Females of P. piraticus are easily distinguished from those of P. tenuitarsis by the shape of epigyne and arrangement of receptacles (P. piraticus Figs 114115, P. tenuitarsis Fig. 118). DESCRIPTION. Female from Crimea. Measurements: total length 7.2; carapace 3.2 long, 2.6 wide. Length of palp segments: femur 1.2, patella 0.6, tibia 0.8, tarsus 1.0. Length of leg segments:

COMMENTS. All records of P. piraticus from Crimea [Charitonov, 1932; Mikhailov, 1997; Kovblyuk, 2004a] are based on one publication [Spassky, 1927]. In our material there is one female from Crimea (environs of Saky), thus occurrence of P. piraticus in Crimea is confirmed. Piratatenuitarsis Simon, 1876 Figs 5, 9, 15, 109113, 117123, 125.
