Material examined. 1♂ (CASENT 9037134): HUNGARY: Borsod Abaúj Zemplén County: Füzér , Castle hill, 10.VII.2006 (G. Kovács & Cs. Szinetár) .

Diagnosis. Per Řezáč et al. (2008), males of this species can be recognized by the high and bulky pars cephalica, domed in front of the PMEs ( Fig. 32 View FIGURES 26–33 ). By the morphology of the copulatory organs, it can be distinguished by the more rectangular bulb (i.e. lower and upper sides straight, not curved), and lower lamella with a slight elevation ( Fig. 24 View FIGURES 20–25 ).

Description. See Řezáč et al. (2008).

Distribution. Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Albania ( World Spider Catalog, 2020).
