Selenops viron sp. nov. (Figs. 79­80)

Type. Female holotype from Kenya, Turkana, Kanapoi, 1­5­IX­1966, deposited in MCZ.

Etymology. The specific epithet is an arbitrary combination of letters.

Diagnosis. The females of this species resemble S. lumbo, but in S. viron sp. nov. the pockets of the epigynum are situated behind the midline and are more elongated than in S. lumbo (Fig. 79). The course of the internal duct system of the spermathecae also differs (Fig. 80).
