He dismisses differences in apophysis structure as "of poor taxonomic importance". The question may be solved by study of fresh specimens, particularly female and and its internal structure of epigynum. An argument for caution is also extremely broad distribution of "Marpissa canestrini", as interpreted by Logunov, reaching from Mediterranean to China, Japan and Vietnam. J. Proszynski.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Comment. Separation of  Mendoza from Marpissa seems to me questionable, precisely because of agruments supplied by 
 Logunov 1999b himself: presence of "CL" - "cymbial ledge" in male palpal organ, marked by himself in drawings of all 
 species - (this was character which convinced me years ago to merge these two genera). Differences  in complicated 
 channels in internal structure of epigyne in Marpissa and much simpler structures in Mendoza presented a problem I could
  not solve myself, when I have compared  these form in 1970ties. Happily, the problem solved Logunov 1999 presenting
  on figs 41-46 a chain of continuous forms, particularly striking when starting from figs 44-46 and then continuing 
  trough 41-43, and adding the most complicated forms. Clearly all these forms are closely related. None the less I follow,
  provisionally, nomenclatorical changes proposed by Logunov because do not want to get involved into empty name juggling.
  However I am not convinced that the splitting of these genera is warranted. Jerzy Proszynski,  1999.
