Öz The genus of Gnaphosa is rather a large one, ihcluding more then fifty species which are distributed ali över the world. Among the well known species of them, G. lucifuga is mainly a European species which is found, also, in Turkey (Pavesi, 1876; Nosek, 1905; Giltay, 1932; Bris- tow, 1935; Karol, 1966) and in spite of the lackness of knowledge of the countries of near east, it is, also, found in India (Dyal, 1935). Gnaphosa lucifuga was first described by Walckenaer (1802) and, later, a key for the family of Drassidae was prepared by Simon (1914). In these old publications, well drawn figures of female genitalia ■were missing. With the thought of filling this need, this study has been done.
