The genusLabullaSimon is circumscribed in phylogenetic terms to include the speciesLabulla thoracica(Wider),L. flahaultiSimon andL. machadoisp. nov.The genital anatomy of the genus is described in detail and the taxonomy of the genus is reviewed. The monophyly ofLabullais supported by numerous morphological apomorphies of the male palp and female epigynum. Based on a cladistic analysis, a new genus,Pecadogen. nov., is erected to placeLabulla impudicaDenis, from Northern Africa.Lepthyphantes insularisSaito and‘ Labulla’ nepulaTikader, both formerly included inLabulla, are not congeneric with the type species ofLabulla. © 2005 The Linnean Society of London,Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2005,143, 359–404.
