ABSTRACT: The type specimens of two Oxyopes species housed in the National Zoological collection of the Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata are re-examined. Oxyopes kamalae Gajbe, 1999 is synonymised with O. hindostanicus Pocock 1901, and a new taxonomic combination is proposed: Hamadruas rukminiae (Gajbe, 1999) comb.n. (ex Oxyopes).
KEY WORDS: Aranei, lynx spiders, taxonomy, new synonymy, new combination, type specimens.
