Araniella Chamberlin et Ivie, 1942 from India is surveyed. As a result,
two new species, A. levii sp.n. and A. maasdorpi sp.n., are described on
the basis of male specimens from high altitudes of Himachal Pradesh and
Uttarakhand, northern India, and a new combination is established for
Araniella nympha (Simon, 1889), comb.n. (ex. Araneus). Comments are
provided for three other species known from this country.
