Palpal femur with stridulatory pick. Epigynum defined by broad, heart-shaped anterior margin of scape, gradually narrowing in a long, straight scape (S), ∼ 2\5 of the abdomen length ( Figs 22, 24 ); spermathecae (S) oval, secondary spermathecae (SS) elongate, slightly curved and directed posteriorly ( Fig. 23 ); copulatory openings (CO) located on the underside of the scape near the apex, associated with terminal pockets (TP) ( Fig. 23 ); copulatory ducts (CD) long ( Fig. 23 ); fertilization ducts (FD) short and recurved ( Fig. 23 ).
