Description. Male ( holotype ). MEASUREMENTS. Total length 2.2, carapace width 1.05. Distance PME-PME 110 µm; diameter PME 110 µm; distance PME-ALE 120 µm; distance AME-AME 20 µm, diameter AME 50 µm. Leg 1: 28.2 (6.7 + 0.4 + 7.0 + 11.8 + 2.3), tibia 2: 3.9, tibia 3: 2.8, tibia 4: 4.0; tibia 1 L/d: 78. COLOR (in ethanol). Carapace ochre-orange with wide dark brown bands laterally and medially, including posterior part of ocular area; clypeus with pair of dark bands between eye triads and rim; sternum light brown to orange; legs brown, with indistinct darker rings on femora (distally) and tibiae (proximally). Abdomen gray, dorsally densely covered with dark marks, ventrally with slightly darker mark in gonopore area, dark median band behind gonopore, light brown area and pair of large dark ventro-lateral marks in front of spinnerets. BODY. Habitus as in Fig. 39 . Ocular area elevated, thoracic furrow present; clypeus unmodified, only strongly protruding towards rim. Sternum wider than long (0.70/0.46), unmodified. CHELICERAE. As in Fig. 48 , with several sclerotized cones in distinctive arrangement, no modified hairs, with stridulatory ridges. PALPS. As in Figs 45–46 ; coxa unmodified, trochanter with short ventral apophysis, femur strongly widened, with large rounded retrolateral process proximally, with stridulatory pick (modified hair) proximally, patella ventrally reduced (not closed), tarsus small, procursus with large flat dorsal apophysis proximally, with ventral groove (rather than distinct ventral pocket), distally with sclerotized and membranous elements ( Fig. 47 ); genital bulb large, with complex process ( Fig. 49 ). LEGS. Without spines, few vertical hairs; with weakly curved hairs on all tibiae and metatarsi (especially anterior legs); retrolateral trichobothrium of tibia 1 at 4.5%; prolateral trichobothrium present on all tibiae; tarsus 1 with>30 pseudosegments, distally distinct. Male (variation). Number of sclerotized cones on chelicerae slightly variable but pattern consistent. Tibia 1 in 5 males (incl. holotype ): 6.5–7.0 (mean 6.8). Female . In general similar to male but sternum darker brown. Tibia 1 in 7 females : 4.2–4.9 (mean 4.7). Epigynum anterior plate roundish, with strong transversal ridges in anterior part ( Fig. 75 ); posterior plate large, also with transversal ridges. Internal genitalia with distinctive rounded frontal processes at both sides of ‘valve’ and with internal pockets, with large pore plates and pair of lateral sclerites ( Figs 70 , 76–77 ).
