Description. Male ( holotype ). MEASUREMENTS. Total length 2.1, carapace width 0.95. Distance PME-PME 90 µm; diameter PME 80 µm; distance PME-ALE 70 µm; distance AME-AME 15 µm, diameter AME 45 µm. Leg 1: 31.5 (7.2 + 0.4 + 7.4 + 14.2 + 2.3), tibia 2: 4.0, tibia 3: 2.8, tibia 4: 4.1; tibia 1 L/d: 93. COLOR (in ethanol). Carapace ochre-yellow with wide dark brown bands laterally at margin and medially including posterior part of ocular area; clypeus with pair of dark bands between eye triads and rim; sternum ochreyellow; legs light brown, without darker rings, tips of femora and tibiae whitish. Abdomen gray, dorsally densely covered with dark marks, ventrally with indistinct light brown mark in front of gonopore, dark median band behind gonopore, light brown area and pair of large dark ventro-lateral marks in front of spinnerets. BODY. Habitus as in close relatives (cf. Figs 39, 41, 43 ). Ocular area elevated, thoracic furrow present; clypeus unmodified. Sternum wider than long (0.56/0.40), unmodified. CHELICERAE. As in Fig. 53 , with pair of distal apophyses directed towards median as in A. arfak but other apophyses in distinctive arrangement; without modified hairs; with stridulatory ridges. PALPS. As in Figs 50–51 ; coxa unmodified, trochanter with short ventral apophysis directed towards distal (similar A. arfak ), femur widened (much less than in A. arfak ), with large rounded retrolateral process proximally, with prolateral stridulatory pick (modified hair) proximally, patella ventrally reduced (not closed), tarsus small, procursus with flat dorsal process proximally with small scales, without ventral pocket, distally with distinctive sclerotized and membranous elements ( Fig. 52 ); genital bulb large, with conical dorsal projection and complex process ( Fig. 54 ). LEGS. Without spines, few vertical hairs; with curved hairs on tibiae and metatarsi 1–2; retrolateral trichobothrium of tibia 1 at 8%; prolateral trichobothrium present on all tibiae; tarsus 1 with ~35 pseudosegments, distally distinct. Male (variation). Number and size of sclerotized cones on chelicerae slightly variable but pattern consistent. Tibia 1 in 2 other males 6.7, 7.7. Female . In general similar to male. Tibia 1 in 1 female : 4.4. Epigynum anterior plate trapezoidal ( Fig. 78 ), posterior plate large, with transversal ridges. Internal genitalia with pair of internal pockets visible through cuticle, with large lateral membranous folds, narrow anterior ‘valve’, and pair of pore plates close together ( Figs 71 , 79– 80 ).
