The genus Vesubia Simon, 1909 currently comprises two species, Vesubia jugorum Simon (1881) from the French and Italian SW – Alps and V. caduca (Karsch, 1880) from Maoui, Hawaii. In this paper we redescribe V. jugorum, update the diagnosis of the genus after examination of the type specimens and propose the transference of V. caduca to Hogna Simon, 1885 leading to the genus Vesubia being solely represented by V. jugorum, thus monotypic. In addition, we explore the relationships of the genus within a broader phylogenetic context in which Vesubia emerges in a clade together with Alopecosa Simon, 1885 representatives.

Abstract
The genus Vesubia Simon, 1909 currently comprises two species, Vesubia jugorum Simon (1881) from the French and Italian SW – Alps and V. caduca (Karsch, 1880) from Maoui, Hawaii. In this paper we redescribe V. jugorum, update the diagnosis of the genus after examination of the type specimens and propose the transference of V. caduca to Hogna Simon, 1885 leading to the genus Vesubia being solely represented by V. jugorum, thus monotypic. In addition, we explore the relationships of the genus within a broader phylogenetic context in which Vesubia emerges in a clade together with Alopecosa Simon, 1885 representatives.
