Cheiracanthium lanceolatum Chrysanthus, 1967, p. 407 , figs 6–8 (description of holotype ♀ and paratype ♀ from INDONESIA: Papua Province: environs of Merauke GoogleMaps (08°28’S, 140°20 ʹ E); Br. Monulf leg. 1956–1957).

Comments

This species is known only from the two female specimens collected in Papua Province, Indonesia ( Chrysanthus 1967) . This species differs from congeners by having only one loop of copulatory ducts. Also, the female is characterised by a transverse atrium anteriorly bounded by rim, sac-shaped spermathecae, as well as elongated posterior spinnerets. Based on the fact that the latter characteristics are consistent with those of the genus Eutittha , we establish a new combination.
