There are three species of the Genus Steatoda Sundevall, 1833 (Family Theridiidae Sundevall, 1833) distributed on the Indian subcontinent. Here, we report the first record of S. erigoniformis (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1872) from India, specifically from Maharashtra and Rajasthan states. Previously, this species was known from Central Asia and China, but now its range extends south to Central India.
