abstract = {The Hersiliidae of the Oriental Region and of New Guinea are revised. The following genera have been newly erected: Neotama, gen. nov. for Tama variata Pocock and three additional new species, and Promurricia, gen. nov. for P. depressa, spec. nov. The genus Tamopsis Baehr & Baehr is recorded for the first time from outside of Australia (New Guinea). All valid species have been fully redescribed. Following 27 species have been newly described: Hersilia albinota, H. baliensis, H. clypealis, H. deelemanae, H. facialis, H. fend, H. flagellifera, H. impressifrons, H. kinabaluensis, H. madang, H. martens), H. mjoebergi, H. nentwigi, H. nepalensis, H. novaeguineae, H. simplicipalpis, H. sundaica, H. tibialis, H. vicina; Promurricia depressa; Murricia cornuta, M. crinifera, M. triangularis; Neotama longimana, N. punctigera, N. rothorum; Tamopsis wau. The following names have been synonymized: Hersilia clathrata Thorell with Hersilia saviguyi Lucas, and Hersilia stevensi Sinha with Hersilia sumatrana (Thorell). For Hersilia caudata Audouin and Hersilia saviguyi Lucas a lectotype and paralectotypes have been designated. The following species remain doubtful because the type(s) are lost, or have not been received for examination, or are immature, and because the descriptions are too poor as to allow reliable identification or even grouping in one of our species-groups: Hersilia celebensis Thorell, H. fletcheri Sinha, H. kalimpongensis Sinha, H. moulmeinensis Sinha, H. pegua na Thorell, H. pern ix Kulczynski, H. siamensis Simon, Mu rricia indica (Lucas), and Tama gravely) Sinha. Hence, these species are not included in our keys. Keys are provided to all genera of Hersiliidae, to the species-groups of the genus Hersilia, and to the species of the genera Hersilia, Murricia, and Neotama. The species of the genus Hersilia are grouped into 10 species-groups, assumed to form monophyletic units. The phylogenetic relations of the species-groups, as well as those of all genera are examined and shown in a cladogram. Phylogenetic evidence shows that the plesiomorphic genera Hersiliola and Tama live in semiarid areas of Africa and the Near East, or in northern Africa, respectively. They are ground-living, web-building, and in the case of Hersiliola also shortlegged species with very short spinnerets, that maintain an atypical and presumably original way of life. As also the most plesiomorphic species-group of Hersilia occurs mainly in Africa, we think that the family on the whole, as well as the genera Hersiliola, Tama, and Hersilia evolved in Africa. From there they spread to the Oriental region, to give there birth to a rather diverse evolution of the genus Hersilia, as well as to the genera Promurricia and Murricia that stem from a Hersilia-like ancestor. In Asia they adopted new habits and new habitats, becoming tree-living species, some of which immigrated into the rain forest. The origin of the, in terms of genitalic morphology, rather plesiomorphic, Oriental-Neotropical genus Neotama is still obscure, though the highly evolutive, mainly Australian genus Tamopsis presumably evolved from a common ancestor with Neotama.
