Description. Male ( holotype ). MEASUREMENTS. Total length 0.80, carapace width 0.40. Distance PME-PME 30 µm; diameter PME 50 µm; distance PME-ALE 20 µm; distance AME-AME 5 µm, diameter AME 10 µm. Leg 1: 2.30 (0.60 + 0.15 + 0.60 + 0.65 + 0.30), tibia 2: 0.50, tibia 3 missing, tibia 4: 0.60; tibia 1 L/d: 10. COLOR (in ethanol). Carapace pale ochre-yellow with three pairs of marginal black spots and median Y-shaped mark; sternum whitish, legs pale ochre-yellow. Abdomen monochromous, pale greenish-gray. BODY. Habitus as in Figs 110–111 . Ocular area barely elevated, thoracic furrow absent; clypeus unmodified. Sternum slightly wider than long (0.26/0.24), unmodified. CHELICERAE. As in Figs 107–108 , with several sclerotized cones; without modified hairs; with stridulatory ridges. PALPS. As in Figs 105–106 ; coxa unmodified, trochanter with ventral rounded projection, femur very strong, with stridulatory pick (modified hair) proximally, patella ventrally reduced, tarsus proximally unsclerotized, procursus with dorsal apophysis and ventral pocket, bulb with complex set of projections. LEGS. Without spines and curved hairs, few vertical hairs; retrolateral trichobothrium of tibia 1 at 62%; prolateral trichobothrium present on all tibiae; tarsus 1 with 5–6 pseudosegments, poorly visible. Male (variation). Tibia 1 in 5 other males: 0.57–0.72 (mean 0.68). Males from caves tend to have longer legs (tibia 1: 0.68–0.72 versus 0.57–0.60). The males from Aruba appear slightly different, with larger palps, minimally different procursus and bulb shapes and with the most distal pair of cheliceral apophyses slightly less diverging; one male from Aruba without AME. Female . In general similar to male. Tibia 1 in 17 females : 0.50–0.68 (mean 0.61). Females from caves tend to have longer legs (tibia 1: 0.54–0.68 versus 0.50–0.53). Epigynum simple externally ( Figs 112–113 ), with additional small plate anteriorly and large posterior plate. Internal genitalia with pair of oval pore plates wide apart ( Fig. 109 ).
