Abstract
Two new species of the megadiverse genus Zodarion Walckenaer, 1826, from the Aegean and Southeastern Anatolian regions of Turkey are described and illustrated: Zodarion bozdagensis spec. nov. (♂,♀) from Izmir and Zodarion siirtensis spec. nov. (♂) from Siirt. This contribution increases the total number of Zodarion species to 23 for Turkey. The distribution of these species in Turkey is also mapped.
