great discovery, Valter!! This is known only for North Africa (the genus). A pity you did not collect. But it is possible to do it. I knew Carrapateira is a great place!  Concerning Eresus sp. males.. they are not easy to find. Keep up the searching! This is a must for the gallery! Hope one day we will know the species for this genus found in Sagres! COngrats. PS This is a new genus for Europe.. being only known in Africa 3 species, one recently in Tunisia. Now Valter discovered one in Sagres!! Amazing.
