Figs. 73−74 View FIGURES 73 – 80

Bedriacum praedator O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1898: 251 , pl. 33, fig. 7. Male holotype from Orizaba [97º6.0'W, 18º51.0'N, State of Veracruz], Mexico, Gas. coll., deposited in BMNH, examined.

Strotarchus praedator ; F.O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1899: 87, pl. 6, fig. 17.

Diagnosis. Males of Strotarchus praedator resemble those of S. monasticus n. sp. by the well developed embolar process. Differ by the longer embolar apices and by the embolar process presenting a bifurcated apical projection ( Figs. 73, 74 View FIGURES 73 – 80 ).

Description. Male (holotype BMNH). Carapace red brown, cephalic area orange. Chelicerae, labium and endites brownish. Sternum yellow with brown margins. Legs yellow. Abdomen pale brown. Total length 9.00. Carapace 4.00 long, 3.20 wide. Eye diameters: AME 0.28, ALE 0.24, PME 0.23, PLE 0.20. Chelicerae with 4 promarginal teeth and 3 retromarginal denticles. Leg measurements: femur I 4.80/ II 4.65/ III 3.80/ IV 4.60. Leg spination: I—femur d1-1-1-1-0, p0-1-1-1, r0-1-1-0; tibia d0, p1-1-0, r1-1-0, v2-2 -2; metatarsus d0, p1-1-1, r1-1-1, v2-2 -2. II—femur d1-1-1, p0-1-1-1, r0-1-1-1; tibia d0, p1-1-0, r1-1-0, v2-2 -2; metatarsus d0, p1-1-1, r1-1-1, v2-2 -2. IIIfemur d1-1-1, p0-1-1-1, r0-1-1; tibia d0-1-0, p1-1-0, r1-1-0, v2-2 -2; metatarsus d0-1-0, p-1-1-1, r1-1-1, v2-2 -2. IV—femur d1-1-1, p0-1-1, r0-1-1; tibia d0-1-0, p1-1-0, r1-1-0, v2-2 -2; metatarsus d0-1-0, p1-1-1, r1-1-1, v2-2 -2. Palpal tibiae strong, approximately one-third of cymbium length; RTA subsquared, laRTA conspicuous, ppRTA small and rounded. Tegulum projected pro-apically; proximal fold of reservoir oriented prolaterally; TA large, projected retrolaterally; BEF restricted to retrolateral side of bulbus, transversally disposed in relation to tegulum; EP large, sub-rectangular, with a rounded retrolateral extension and bifid projection inserted medially; EA arising retrolaterally ( Figs. 73, 74 View FIGURES 73 – 80 ).
