The pseudoterrestris Group
Diagnosis: Coelotine spiders in the pseudoterrestris group can be easily distinguished from the atropos group and the charitonovi group by the large, anteriorly extending copulatory ducts in the female ( Fig. 2 View FIGURES 1 – 2 ), and in the male by the narrower patellar apophysis and the long, slender conductor ( Figs 3, 4 View FIGURES 3 – 4 ). The exitialis group from Japan, which is not well studied, is most similar to the pseudoterrestris group in having a narrow patellar apophysis and more or less slender, long conductor. The exitialis group species from Japan showed short, medially (between spermathecae) or slightly anteriorly extending copulatory ducts, which is different from the distinctly extending (either anteriorly or laterally) copulatory ducts.
Distribution: China (Yunnan), Thailand (Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai) ( Figs 154–157 View FIGURES 154 View FIGURES 155 View FIGURES 156 View FIGURES 157 ).
