Castanilla quinquemaculata Caporiacco, 1936a: 83, fig. 4 (juvenile #f holotype: LIBYA: Fezzan, Wadi Tanezzuft [25°51'N, 10°19'E], 8.III.1934, leg. Scortecci, MZUF 135 – examined).

Remarks: Examination of the holotype of C. quinquemaculata indicates that the specimen is a juvenile female (body length 2.0 mm) and does not have a developed epigyne, confirming information in the catalogue of type specimens in MZUF (Berdondini & Whitman 2002). Consequently, there is no epigyne that will allow a definitive identification. However, it clearly belongs to Micaria based on the morphological characteristics mentioned in the introductory remarks (Fig. 5). The species is considered a nomen dubium here and should be redescribed when additional specimens become available from the vicinity of the type locality in Libya.
