Venator marginatus Hogg, 1900
|
Venator marginatus is a wolf spider (i.e., in the Lycosidae family), endemic to Australia and found in Victoria.[2][3]
It was described in 1900 by Henry Roughton Hogg.[2][1] However, in 2015 Volker Framenau declared it "incerta sedis", stating that it was known from two female specimens, the morphology of whose genitalia failed to match those of the genus.[4] (This view is accepted by the Australian Faunal Directory.)[2]
