Diagnosis. The genus Synagelides appears somewhat ant-like, although less than typical ant-like genera. In most species there is a bifis retromarginal tooth, in some species reduced to a single tooth. The biggest characteristic is the modified male palpus: large overgrown patella articulating at right angle with small femora relatively, and other parts of the palpal organ are also very special. Epigyne has diagonal pockets opening wìth complicated surface. Internal organs show 2 separate units of sclerotized parts: anterior unit near copulatory openings and posteriorly Iying spermathecal unit. It can be also recognized by very long and stout spines on metatarsi and tibiae 1.
