Abstract
Two new species of Dysdera Latreille, 1804, D. yigitakcai sp.n. (male female; Kahramanmara & scedil;) and D. mehmeti sp.n. (male female; Gaziantep), are described from the eastern Mediterranean region of Turkey. Of these, D . mehmeti sp.n. belongs to the asiatica species-group. Dysdera yigitakcai sp.n. possesses characteristics of different species-groups but appears closest to the longirostris-group.-group. In addition, photographs of the palp of D. neocretica Deeleman-Reinhold, 1988; D. fragaria Deeleman-Reinhold, 1988; and the vulva of D. argaeica Nosek, 1905 are included for comparison.
