Misgolas montanus (Rainbow & Pulleine, 1918)

Arbanitis montanus is a species of armoured trap-door spider in the family Idiopidae,[1] and is endemic to New South Wales.[2]

It was first described by William Joseph Rainbow and Robert Henry Pulleine in 1918 as Arbanitis montanus.[1][3] However, in 1977 Barbara Main placed it in synonymy with Dyarcyops fuscipes[2][4] and in 1985 in synonymy with Misgolas rapax.[2][5] In 2008, Wishart and Rowell recognised it once more as a separate species and it became Misgolas montanus.[2][6] This was reconfirmed by Wishart in 2011.[2][7] In 2017 Michael Rix and others returned it to the genus, Arbanitis.[1][2][8]
