Gnaphosa lapponum (L. Koch, 1866)
|
Gnaphosa lapponum is a ground spider species found across heaths and heath-like terrain in alpine-subalpine zones of Europe (including Iceland) and Russia (European Russia to West Siberia).[1]
Specimens have a brown prosoma and opisthosoma, with females larger than males, with respective body lengths of 8-10 mm for female specimens, and 7.5-8.3 mm for males.[1]
Gnaphosa lapponum inermis was formerly considered a subspecies of Gnaphosa lapponum, but was fully synonymized with the nominate form of the species in 2019.[2][3]
