Abstract

Geolycosa grandis (Banks 1894) (Araneae, Lycosidae) is redescribed, and illustrations are provided for the first time. We propose that Geolycosa grandis be transferred to the genus Hogna Simon 1885. Hogna permunda (Chamberlin 1904) is synonymized with H. grandis. Notes are given on distinguishing H. grandis from similar species including H. helluo (Walckenaer 1837), Allocosa georgicola (Walckenaer 1837), and H. aspersa (Hentz 1844). Information on Lycosa permiana Scheffer 1904 is examined and the species is declared nomen dubium.
