Abstract
This paper provides the re-description of Epeus albus Prószynski, 1992, with the first description of its male. Additionally, Epeus chilapataensis (Biswas & Biswas, 1992) is synonymised with E. albus and a new taxonomic combination is proposed: Epeus khandalaensis (Tikader, 1977) comb. nov. (ex Phidippus). Clarification on the record of Epeus daiqini Patoleta, Gardzińska & Żabka, 2020 from India is provided. The current distribution of the genus in India is also mapped.
