Arbanitis melancholicus is a species of armoured trap-door spider in the family Idiopidae,[1] and is endemic to New South Wales.[2]
It was first described by William Joseph Rainbow and Robert Henry Pulleine in 1918 as Dyarcyops melancholicus.[1][3] However, in 1985 Barbara Main placed it in synonymy with Misgolas rapax[1][4] In 2006, Wishart recognised it once more as a separate species and it became Misgolas melancholicus.[1][5] This was reconfirmed by Wishart in 2011.[1][6] In 2017 Michael Rix and others returned it to the genus, Arbanitis.[1][2][7]
