Two new genera and seven new species of the family Linyphiidae from the collections of the Muséum d'histoire naturelle de Genève are described: Kalimagone gen. nov. with Kalimagone cuspidata sp. nov. (the type species) and K. rotunda sp. nov. from Borneo; Tegulinus gen. nov. with Tegulinus sumatranus sp. nov. (the type species) and T. bifurcatus sp. nov. from Sumatra; Dumoga buratino sp. nov. and Prosoponoides jambi sp. nov. from Sumatra; and Oedothorax bifoveatus sp. nov. from Borneo and Java. A list of the linyphiid species currently known from Borneo, Sumatra and Java is presented.
INTRODUCTION
At present, about 140 linyphiid species from 69 genera have been described or recorded from Southeast Asia (see Locket, 1982; Millidge & Russell-Smith, 1992; Barrion & Litsinger, 1995; Millidge, 1995; Helsdingen, 1969, 1985a, b; Heimer, 1984; Saaristo & Tanasevitch, 2003a, b; Tu & Li, 2004; Tanasevitch, 2014a, b, 2015, 2016, 2017). The present paper adds to this list another two new genera and seven new species, which are here described from Borneo, Sumatra and Java. According to new data the linyphiid faunas of these islands are currently known to contain 24, 26 and 12 species, respectively (see Table 1).
MATERIAL AND METHODS
This paper is based on material kept at the Muséum d'histoire naturelle de Genève, Switzerland (MNHG). Specimens preserved in 70% ethanol were studied using a MBS-9 stereomicroscope. A Levenhuk C-800 digital camera was used for some drawings. Images taken at multiple focal planes were combined using the Helicon Focus image stacking software, version 5.1. Sample numbers are given in square brackets.
The terminology of copulatory organs mainly follows that of Merrett (1963), Hormiga (1994, 2000) and Tanasevitch (2015). The chaetotaxy is given in a formula, e.g., 2.2.1.1, which refers to the number of dorsal spines on tibiae I-IV. The sequence of leg segment measurements is as follows: femur + patella + tibia + metatarsus + tarsus. All measurements are given in mm. Figure numbers are given above the scale lines, the corresponding distance below.

Paratypes: 1 male, 2 females; collected together with the holotype.
Diagnosis: The new species is characterized by the peculiar shape of its carapace and highly modified palpal tibia in the male, as well as by the rounded dorsal plate of the epigyne in the female.
Etymology: The specific epithet is a noun in apposition, referring to the long-nosed Russian fairy-tale character “Buratino”.
Description: Male (paratype). Large-sized Erigoninae, total length 3.13, habitus as shown in Fig. 1. Carapace modified (Figs 2–3), 1.65 long, 1.00 wide, reddish brown, with a pale, globular elevation in the middle. Anterior part of carapace protruded forwards, bearing anterior median eyes.

Kalimagone gen. nov.
Type species: Kalimagone cuspidata sp. nov.
Diagnosis: The new genus belongs to the subfamily Erigoninae and is characterized by the following combination of characters: Medium-sized spiders, total length 1.70-1.95. Chaetotaxy formula 2.2.1.1, trichobothrium on MtIV absent. Male carapace unmodified, sulci absent; chelicerae unmodified, mastidion absent. Distal suprategular apophysis well-developed, protruding far beyond tip of cymbium and bearing a sable-shaped process in the middle. Radix small, embolus long, relatively narrow, directed forwards. The female is characterized by the presence of a median plate on the epigyne, by short seminal ducts and relatively small receptacles situated on both sides of the median plate.
Etymology: The generic name is a combination of two words: “Kalimantan”, the “terra typica”, and a part of the generic name Erigone; the gender is feminine.
Species included: Kalimagone cuspidata sp. nov. and K. rotunda sp. nov.
Taxonomic remarks: The conformation of the male palp of Kalimagone gen. nov., namely the presence of a well-developed distal suprategular apophysis, a small radix with a long embolus, a modified palpal tibia, as well as the chaeto- and trichobothriotaxy is similar to that of some representatives of Gongylidioides Oi, 1960, especially of G. keralaensis Tanasevitch, 2011 and G. pectinatus Tanasevitch, 2011, both known from India (Tanasevitch, 2011). The new genus is distinguished from Gongylidioides by the absence of a convector (a sclerite in the embolic division which is protecting the embolus), as well as by the structure of the epigyne, namely by the presence of a median plate. The shape of the epigyne resembles that of Oedothorax Bertkau in Förster & Bertkau, 1883, but Oedothorax species have a totally different conformation of the male palp.
Distribution: Known from Sabah on Borneo Island.

Etymology: The species name is an adjective derived from the Latin “fovea”, meaning “a pit”, a “socket”, referring to the structure of the epigyne.
Diagnosis: The species is characterized by the unmodified carapace, by the peculiar shape of the palpal tibia, as well as by the curved shape of the convector in the male. The female is characterized by the specific structure of the epigyne, namely by the presence of two large sockets on either side of the median plate.
Description: Male (holotype). Total length 1.83. Carapace (Fig. 31) unmodified, 0.95 long, 0.70 wide, greyish pale yellow-brown, with indistinct, grey, radial stripes and darker margin; sulci absent. Chelicerae 0.38 long, mastidion absent. Legs yellow. Leg I 3.43 long (0.90+0.25+0.88+0.80+0.60), IV 3.33 long (0.88+0.25+0.85+0.85+0.50).

Tegulinus gen. nov.
Type species: Tegulinus sumatranus sp. nov.
Etymology: The generic name is derived from the Latin “tegulum”, the shape of which is a main character of the genus; the gender is masculine.
Diagnosis: The new genus belongs to the subfamily Erigoninae and is characterized by the following combination of characters: Rather large-sized spiders, total length 1.90–2.25. Chaetotaxy formula 2.2.1.1, all metatarsi with a trichobothrium. Carapace and palpal tibia of males modified; sulci and mastidion absent. Tegulum strongly protruded downwards; distal suprategular apophysis well-developed, long, narrow; embolus small; convector present, simple.
Species included: Tegulinus sumatranus sp. nov. and T. bifurcatus sp. nov.
Taxonomic remarks: The taxonomic position of this new genus is unclear, especially as the female is unknown. The conformation of the embolic division, namely the shape of the small embolus and the structure of the convector, somewhat resembles that of some Oriental species of Oedothorax Bertkau in Förster & Bertkau, 1883, e.g., O. meghalaya Tanasevitch, 2015 or O. stylus Tanasevitch, 2015. The discovery of congeneric females and/or other representatives of Tegulinus gen. nov. should clarify the position of the genus among the Erigoninae.
Distribution: Known only from Sumatra Island, Indonesia.

Tegulinus bifurcatus
sp. nov.
Figs 56–59, 65–69
Holotype: Male; Indonesia, Sumatra, Jambi Province, Mt Kerinci, 3000 m a.s.l., 12.XI.1989; leg. D. Agosti, D. Burckhardt & I. LöbI [#13a].
Diagnosis: The species is characterized by the presence of a hump on the carapace, by the presence of two processes on the palpal tibia, as well as by the relatively small convector.
Etymology: The specific name is a Latin adjective referring to the shape of the male palpal tibia.
Description: Male (holotype). Total length 1.90, habitus as shown in Fig. 56. Carapace 0.90 long, 0.73 wide, pale brown, with a pale, rounded hump in the centre (Figs 56–57). Chelicerae 0.30 long, mastidion absent. Legs yellow. Leg I 2.96 long (0.85+0.25+0.70+0.68+0.48.), leg IV 2.93 long (0.80+0.23+0.70+0.75+0.45). Chaetotaxy unknown, spines lost. TmI 0.80. All metatarsi with trichobothrium. Palp (Figs 58–59, 65–69): Dorso-apical process of tibia divided into two branches. Paracymbium small, L-shaped. Tegulum conical, strongly protruded downwards, pointed and bent apically. Distal suprategular apophysis small, ending in a narrow, almost transparent process. Convector with a deep hollow. Embolus small, comma-shaped. Abdomen 1.00 long, 0.75 wide, dorsal pattern as shown in Fig. 56. Female. Unknown.
Taxonomic remarks: The new species is similar to its only known congener, T. sumatranus sp. nov., but can be easily distinguished by the presence of a hump on the carapace and of two processes on the palpal tibia (versus only one in T. sumatranus sp. nov.).
Distribution: Known only from the type locality at high altitudes in Jambi Province, Sumatra Island, Indonesia.
BIOGEOGRAPHICAL PART
In Table 1 I give an overview of the occurrence of linyphiid spiders on Borneo, Sumatra, Java and continental SE-Asia. According to that, the fauna of these islands is not as poor in species as we previously thought and shows a high degree of presumed endemism. Among the 58 species listed, only 12 were recorded from continental Southeast Asia. Only one species, Kaestneria bicultrata, is also known from outside that region (southern China), and one species, Ostearius melanopygius, is a cosmopolite. The remaining species are presumably local or regional endemics.
