【 摘 要 】

Generic placements of seven Japanese species assigned to the phrurolithid genus Otacilia Thorell1897 are examined. Four species are transferred to Acrolithus Liu & S. Li in Liu et al. 2022: A. meles (Kamura2021) n. comb., A. mustela (Kamura 2008) n. comb., A. stella (Kamura 2005) n. comb. and A. vulpes (Kamura2001) n. comb. A new genus is described under the name of Lunalithus n. gen., and one species is transferredto this genus: L. luna (Kamura 1994) n. comb. One species is transferred to the liocranid genus Paratus Simon1898: Paratus kamurai (Ono & Ogata 2018) n. comb. Only Otacilia komurai (Yaginuma 1952) remains in thesame genus.
