Abstract: Four specimens of Phoneutria bahiensis Simó & Brescovit 2001 were identified amongst material of a faunal rescue carried out in Itapebi county, southern Bahia. This record enhances the geographic distribution of the species, since to date, the literature restricts the occurrence of P. bahiensis only to the city of Ilhéus and Salvador.Key words: Phoneutria bahiensis, geographic distribution, Bahia.

“…Field observations indicate that P. bahiensis is not synanthropic and is very sensitive to human impact. This species only occurs in protected fragments of the Atlantic Rainforest (DIAS et al 2005a). The high vulnerability of this species to changes that affect the natural habitat and its ende-mism suggest that P. bahiensis is a promising bioindicator of human impact over the Atlantic Rainforest (Ombrophilous Forest and Restinga).…”

“…Compared to congeners, P. bahiensis has the most restricted distribution and is represented by relatively few specimens in arachnological collections. Owing to the few literature records for this species (DIAS et al 2005a), the knowledge about the natural history of P. bahiensis is scarce. This spider has nocturnal activity and inhabits shrubs, litter and bromeliads (MACHADO et al 2008).…”
