TYPE LOCALITY AND TYPE REPOSITORY. Hadramaut, Yemen ; ZMUH.

TYPE MATERIAL EXAMINED. Yemen, Hadramaut, 1♀ A (lectotype hereby designated), ZMUH .

DIAGNOSIS: First to fourth metasomal segments ventrally with two median carinae. Fifth metasomal segments ventrally with median carina and several granules. Metasoma and mesosoma black, legs and pedipalps mostly yellow to yellowish green. Movable fingers bear 9 or 10 rows of granules that have internal and external granules. Chela of pedipalp dorsally smooth, without strong carinae. Tarsomere I of first to third legs with bristlecombs, tarsomere I of fourth legs without bristlecombs.

COMMENTS. The lectotype is being designated in order to stabilize the nomenclature. Fet & Lowe (2000: 88) listed 5 syntypes at BMNH and one paratype at ZMUH, but no specimens have been found at BMNH. Therefore ,

I designate as the lectotype one specimen deposited at ZMUH .
