Six species of Entelecara Simon, 1884 are known in Ukraine: E. acuminata (Wider, 1834), E. congenera (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1879), E. erythropus (Westring, 1851), E. flavipes (Blackwall, 1834), E. media Kulczyński, 1887 (needs confirmation), and E. omissa O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1903. Entelecara errata O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1913 was excluded from the earlier list (erroneous identification) and E. forsslundi Tullgren, 1955 was synonymized with E. flavipes (Blackwall, 1834). Information on distinctive features of the copulatory organs and their shape variation is presented, as well as data on ecology and distribution in Ukraine. Drawings of the male palp, carapace, epigyne, and vulva of each of the five species which undoubtedly occurs in Ukraine are provided.
