Data about spiders collected in Portugal are presented. Two new species are described, Scotophaeus dolanskyi spec. nov. (Gnaphosidae) and Apostenus crespoi spec. nov. (Liocranidae). Three species are recorded for the first time in Portugal: Dysdera lata Wider, 1834 (Dysderidae), Scotophaeus validus (Lucas, 1846) and Euophrys nigripalpis Simon, 1937 (Salticidae). Illustrations of two rarely illustrated species are also presented: Nigma hortensis (Simon, 1870) (Dictynidae) and Canariphantes zonatus (Simon, 1884) (Linyphiidae)
