Gen.
Melecosa Marusik, Omelko & Koponen, 2015 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:04282 ]
N.B.: gender stated to be masculine by the authors, but using a feminine adjectival ending in the only species, furthermore all other lycosid genera ending in -osa are feminine, so it is preferred to regard Melecosa as feminine.
