Abstract
A new wolf-spider genus, Halocosa gen. n. (Lycosidae Sundevall, 1833), is described. Evippa apsheronica Marusik, Guseinov et Koponen, 2003 is synonymized with Lycosa cereipes L. Koch, 1878. Three new combinations are proposed: Halocosa cereipes (L. Koch, 1878) comb. n. (ex Lycosa), H. hatanensis comb. n. (ex Pardosa) and H. jartica comb. n. (ex Pardosa). Neotype of Lycosa cereipes is designated.
