  Yinanyphaena gen. nov., a new ghost spider genus with descriptions of five new species and seven new combinations from China (Araneae, Anyphaenidae) Abstract A new genus, Yinanyphaena Wang & Mi, gen. nov ., of the family Anyphaenidae Bertkau, 1878, is proposed based on molecular phylogenetic results and morphological evidence. Five new species collected from the Qomolangma National Nature Reserve, Xizang, China are described: Y. haochuni Wang & Mi, sp. nov . (♂♀), Y. jinhuai Wang & Mi, sp. nov . (♂♀), Y. qomolangma Wang & Mi, sp. nov . (♂♀), Y. shikaii Wang & Mi, sp. nov . (♀), and Y. xufeii Wang & Mi, sp. nov . (♀). In addition, seven new combinations transferred from Anyphaena Sundevall, 1833 are also proposed: Y. cibagou (Wang & Mi, 2024), comb. nov ., Y. linzhi (Wang & Mi, 2024), comb. nov ., Y. rhynchophysa (Feng, Ma & Yang, 2012), comb. nov ., Y. shufui (Wang & Mi, 2024), comb. nov ., Y. tibet (Lin & Li, 202...
