PALP ( Figs 3 A–D, 4A–C). Patella and tibia bearing one robust spine each, tibia with 3 trichobothria. Cymbium with a stocky, squared dorsal hump. Paracymbium large, with a robust, pointed apophysis headed outward on the distal part, lateral margin covered with several minute wrinkles. Two proximal radical apophyses, one robust, spine-like, the other long, thin and thread-like, both curved outward and downward. Distal radical apophysis with several minute denticles. Distal suprategular apophysis robust and curved outward, second branch shorter. Antero-proximal part of median membrane with a row of 9–10 small, stumpy teeth. Terminal apophysis transparent and scarcely visible, ending with a wide, flat and wrinkled tip. Embolus curved, ending in a sharp point. Female HABITUS. See Fig. 3I. MEASUREMENTS.

Distal part of scapus wide, strongly protruding from the epigynal cavity. Posterior median plate large and rectangular, wider than longer. Spermathecae small, comma-like. Copulatory grooves first turning posteriorly and outward before returning to the middle part of the vulva and ending in copulatory openings at the distal part of the scapus.
