TYPES: Female holotype and male allotype taken in pitfall traps in rainforest at an elevation of 762 m on Mount Nardi, via Nimbin , 288329S, 1538179E, New South Wales (Mar. 23–Aug. 2, 1975; G., S. Monteith), deposited in QMB ( S28129 View Materials ) .

ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.

DIAGNOSIS: Males can be recognized by the basally narrow embolus (fig. 426), females by the long, deeply depressed epigynal atrium (fig. 428).

MALE: Total length 8.0. Abdominal dorsum gray, without pair of transverse white stripes, soft portions of cuticle with interrupted narrow lines of white spots, venter pale white, unmarked; legs unmarked. Leg spination: tibiae: III v222, r011; IV p01 1; metatarsi: III p111; IV p111, r111. Retrolateral tibial apophysis relatively short, laterally convex (fig. 427); embolar base narrow, embolar apophysis long, straight, tegular apophysis long, median apophysis laterally flattened, situated opposite bump on tegulum (fig. 426).

FEMALE: Total length 8.2. Coloration and leg spination as in male. Epigynal hood wide, beakshaped, situated above depression continuous with epigynal atrium (fig. 428); dor salmost ducts almost as long as median ones (fig. 429).
