Notolinga
Genus of spiders
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Notolinga is a monotypic genus of South American sheet weavers containing the single species, Notolinga fuegiana. It is a replacement name for Linga, already in use by a genus of molluscs.[2] Eugène Simon described the first female in 1902 under the name "Neriene fuegiana",[3] but the first male was not described until 2019.[2] It has only been found in Argentina and on the Falkland Islands.[1]
