TYPE: Female holotype taken in a Berlese sample of litter from the base of mallee 25 km E by N of Kimba, 338059S, 1368419E, South Australia (Sept. 4, 1981; A. Calder), deposited in QMB .
ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.
DIAGNOSIS: Males can be recognized by the sinuous median apophysis (fig. 388) and moderately long, triangular retrolateral tibial apophysis (fig. 389), females by the combined presence of an anteriorly depressed epigynum and laterally deflected anterior portions of the spermathecae (figs. 390, 391).
MALE: Total length 2.2. Abdominal dorsum light gray, without indications of anterior white spots but with pale posterior hairline chevrons. Retrolateral tibial apophysis almost triangular (fig. 389); embolus bent at tip (fig. 388).
FEMALE: Total length 3.4. Coloration as in male. Epigynal midpiece long, anterior two thirds depressed (fig. 390); anterior portions of spermathecae deflected to sides (fig. 391).
