TYPES: Female holotype and male allotype taken in pitfall traps at Woodleigh Station , 268129S, 1148259E, Western Australia (May 17–Aug. 21, 1995; N. Hall), deposited in WAM (96/566, 567) .
ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.
DIAGNOSIS: Males can be recognized by the very short retrolateral tibial apophysis and the short terminal apophysis having its dorsal prong short, curved, very heavily sclerotized, and easily visible through the translucent median apophysis (figs. 602, 603), females by the pair of medially direct ed projections on the lateral epigynal margins (fig. 604).
MALE: Total length 6.6. Coloration as in A. phaleratus . Leg spination: tibiae: III v1p 22; IV v1p1p2; metatarsi III, IV v1p00. Retrolateral tibial apophysis very short, reaching to less than onefourth of cymbial length (fig. 603); dorsal prong of terminal apophysis heavily sclerotized, rounded, situated medially of ventral portion, easily visible through translucent median apophysis (fig. 602).
FEMALE: Total length 7.7. Coloration as in A. phaleratus . Leg spination: tibiae: III p0 01, v1p1p2, r000; IV p000, v1p1p2; metatarsi: III v000; IV v01p0. Epigynum with distinctive pair of medially directed projections on lateral margins (fig. 604); ducts extending anterolaterally (fig. 605).
