Description Male ( holotype ) MEASUREMENTS . Total body length 2.4, carapace width 1.05. Distance PME-PME 60 µm; diameter PME 70 µm; distance PME-ALE 30 µm; distance AME-AME 20 µm; diameter AME 40 µm. Leg 1: 5.30 (1.50 + 0.40 + 1.30 + 1.55 + 0.55), tibia 2: 1.15, tibia 3: 1.05, tibia 4: 1.50; tibia 1 L/d: 9; diameters of leg femora 0.28–0.30, of leg tibiae 0.14–0.15. COLOUR (in ethanol). Prosoma and legs ochre-orange, no dark marks on carapace, leg femora distally darkened; abdomen grey with dark bluish internal marks; ventrally with light brown plate in front of gonopore. BODY ( Fig. 3F ). Ocular area barely raised. Carapace with distinct but shallow thoracic groove. Clypeus unmodified, very short (clypeus rim to ALE: 0.24). Sternum slightly wider than long (0.68/0.58), heart-shaped (i.e., narrow posteriorly), with pair of distinct anterior processes near coxae 1. Abdomen globular. CHELICERAE ( Fig. 15A–B ). With pair of long frontal apophyses; stridulatory files fine but clearly visible in dissecting microscope; distances between cheliceral stridulatory ridges proximally 3.0 µm, distally 3.8 µm. PALPS ( Fig. 14 ). Coxa unmodified; trochanter without process; femur proximally with retrolateral-ventral process and prolateral stridulatory pick, distally widened but simple, slightly curved towards dorsal; femur-patella joints slightly shifted toward prolateral side; tibia globular, with two trichobothria; procursus very simple ( Fig. 15C–E ), narrow distal part directed towards prolateral, with semi-transparent tip; genital bulb with distinctive dorsal process and sclerotized and membranous distal elements ( Fig. 15F–H ). LEGS . Without spines and curved hairs; with vertical hairs in two narrow dorsal bands on all tibiae (length ~20 µm); length of dorsal trichobothrium on tibia 1: ~100 µm; retrolateral trichobothrium of tibia 1 at 57%; prolateral trichobothrium absent on tibia 1; tarsus 1 with ~7 pseudosegments, only distally 2–3 distinct. Variation (male) Tibia 1 in other male: 1.35. Female In general, similar to male ( Fig. 3G ) but sternum without pair of anterior humps, tibiae without higher than usual density of short vertical hairs, and chelicerae without stridulatory files. Tibia 1 in four females : 0.90, 0.90, 1.00, 1.05. Epigynum ( Figs 16 , 18C ) with simple anterior plate protruding posteriorly; posterior plate wide, median part separated anteriorly from lateral parts by pair of whitish areas. Internal genitalia ( Fig. 17 ) very simple, apparently without or with small and indistinct median receptacle, without or with very small pore plates.
