TL;DR: The genus Otacilia is not easy to be distinguished from Phrurolithus C.L. Koch, 1839 in the past years, but in recent years, additional characters were found and documented not only in otacilia, but also in Phruolithus.
Abstract: T genus Otacilia Thorell, 1897 has a wide distribution with 99 species only in the Asian regions (World Spider Catalog, 2020). The total number of species in Otacilia has increased approximately 72 % in the past ten years and still continues to grow (Fu et al., 2010; Jäger and Wunderlich, 2012; Wang et al., 2012, 2015; Yang et al., 2013; Fu, 2016; Fu et al., 2014, 2015, 2016a, b; Jin et al., 2016; Jäger and Dimitrov, 2019; Liu et al., 2019; World Spider Catalog, 2020; Zamani and Marusik, 2020). So far there are 74 species (about 75% of the total) reported from China. Out of these, 70 species have been reported from southern China: Hainan (6 species), Taiwan (2 species), Zhejiang (4 species), Yunnan (10 species), Guangxi (2 species), Guizhou (5 species), Sichuan (8 species), Chongqing (9 species), Hunan (19 species), Hubei (4 species) and Taiwan (1 specie) provinces in southern China (Li and Lin, 2016; World Spider Catalog, 2020). No one species were recorded from other provinces in this huge country (World Spider Catalog, 2020). The genus Otacilia is not easy to be distinguished from Phrurolithus C.L. Koch, 1839 in the past years. In recent years, additional characters were found and documented not only in Otacilia, but also in Phrurolithus (Wang et al., 2015; Fu, 2016; Fu et al., 2016a, b; Jin et al., 2016; Liu et al., 2019; World Spider Catalog, 2020;
