Distance PME-PME 25 µm, diameter PME 80 µm, distance PME-ALE 20 µm, no AME. COLOR. Carapace ochre-grey, slightly darker medially, sternum with four pairs of dark lines extending from behind labium to bases of leg coxae, legs pale ochre-yellow, without rings, abdomen ochre-gray with distinct dark median dorsal mark. BODY. Habitus as in Figs 35-36 ; ocular area barely elevated; carapace without median furrow; clypeus with distinct pair of projections at rim ( Fig. 35 ); sternum wider than long (0.40/0.35), unmodified. Chelicerae as in Fig. 45 , with pair of lateral processes proximally and pointed frontal apophyses, without stridulatory ridges. PALPS. As in Figs 37-38 and 43-44 , coxa unmodified, trochanter with indistinct ventral projection, femur small relative to tibia, with small retrolatero-ventral process and larger prolatero-ventral process set with tubercles, procursus complex, entire distal part apparently hinged against basis, without elements distinctive for other known species (retrolateral sclerite provided with brush of long hairs; ventral pointed projection), bulb with single weakly sclerotized process (embolus). LEGS. Without spines and curved hairs, few vertical hairs; retrolateral trichobothrium on tibia 1 at 25%; prolateral trichobothrium absent on tibia 1, present on other tibiae; tarsus 1 with about ten indistinct pseudosegments. VARIATION. Tibia 1 in 2 other males: 1.3, 1.4. Female In general similar to male; tibia 1 in 6 females : 1.2-1.4 (mean 1.3). Epigynum consisting of large anterior plate provided with pair of pockets and narrow posterior plate ( Figs 40, 41 , 46 ); internal genitalia as in Figs 42 and 47 . Natural history The spiders were found in the leaf-litter under leaves that are curved in a way to produce protected space on the underside. Two eggsacs contained 13 and 15 eggs respectively.
