Type material.
Holotype: male (NIBR), Mt. Baegunsan, Seonyudam Valley near the parking area (38.0702°N, 127.4026°E), Dopyeong-ri, Idong-myeon, Pocheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea, 09 October 2018, ZG. Chen, Z. Zhao & MJ. Xu leg. Paratypes: 1 male and 1 female (IZCAS), same data as holotype.
Etymology.
The specific name is an adjective referring to the type locality.
Differential diagnosis.
This new species is similar to F. geumsanensis Seo, 2016 and F. boeunensis Seo, 2015 but can be separated by the shape of the palpal tibial apophyses found retrolaterally, with one apophysis coniform and the other bifurcate, bearing three spines distally ( Figure 1D View Figure 1 ) (vs. a spur-like tibial apophysis located ventrally, a leaf-like medial apophysis, a dorsal beak-like apophysis in F. geumsanensis ; three tibial spines with the outer spine spur-like, the medial one spine-like, and the inner spine conical in F. boeunensis .).
Description.
Male (holotype). Total length 1.40. Prosoma 0.60 long, 0.51 wide. Opisthosoma 0.80 long, 0.55 wide ( Figure 1A View Figure 1 ). Prosoma brown. Eyes six. Median groove, cervical grooves and radial furrows distinct. Clypeus 0.15 high. Opisthosoma gray, ovoid. Leg measurements: I 3.53 (0.94, 0.25,0.99, 0.74, 0.61); II 2.97 (0.88, 0.23, 0.74, 0.62, 0.50); III 2.58 (0.66, 0.19, 0.68, 0.63, 0.42); IV 3.4 (0.98, 0.19, 1.00, 0.81, 0.42). Palp as illustrated in Figure 1C, D View Figure 1 : femur lacking strong spine; tibia with three apophyses retrolaterally, with one coniform and the other bifurcate, bearing three spines distally ( Figure 1D View Figure 1 ); tarsus with a transverse depression, and a smooth, distinct earlobe-shaped process. Bulb with triangular black sickle-shaped embolus and three types of sclerites: prolateral sclerite membranous; median sclerite wide and shoehorn-like; retrolateral sclerite transparent and membranous ( Figure 1B View Figure 1 ).
Female (one of the paratypes). Similar to male in color and general features but larger and with longer legs. Total length 1.39 as in Figure 2A, B View Figure 2 . Prosoma 0.55 long, 0.46 wide. Opisthosoma 0.84 long, 0.50 wide. Leg measurements: I 3.25 (0.78, 0.18, 0.84, 0.98, 0.47); II 2.29 (0.69, 0.17, 0.60, 0.48, 0.35); III 2.09 (0.56, 0.16, 0.52, 0.45, 0.40); IV2.88 (0.84, 0.22, 0.80, 0.63, 0.39). Internal genitalia as provided in Figure 2C View Figure 2 : atrium rectangular, anterior margin of atrium with short hairs, and spermathecae oval.
