Type material.
Holotype female (specimen MRB076), in LKCNHM, from Singapore: Nee Soon Swamp Forest, beating vegetation, 1.39°N, 103.81°E, 12 May 2005. W. Maddison, D. Li, I. Agnarsson, J. X. Zhang. WPM#05-015. Paratype female (specimen JK.14.05.19.0015) from Singapore: Central Catchment Nature Reserve Upper Peirce Reservoir 1.3811°N, 103.8156°E, J. K. H. Koh 19 May 2014.
Etymology.
An arbitrary combination of letters, ungendered. Other names: In WPM’s lab notebooks the informal code for this species was “BVNES”.
Diagnosis.
As in I. vimedaba , the face appears white because of the exposed arthrodial membrane, whose boundary with the very narrow clypeus is indistinct. Differs from I. vimedaba in having chevroned abdominal markings visible in alcohol and epigynal openings small and copulatory ducts densely tangled and fused (Fig. 101 View Figures 100–103 ).
Description.
Female (based on holotype, specimen MRB076). Carapace length 2.5; abdomen length 3.6. Carapace integument in alcohol dark brown, paler in ocular area and along midline of thorax, with patches of yellow scales (Fig. 102 View Figures 100–103 ). Clypeus extremely narrow, but broad arthrodial membrane is exposed and bright white. Chelicerae brown, with concave front and lateral ridge. At least four retromarginal teeth. Legs pale except first, whose femur is brown darkening to black ventrally, and whose tibia and metatarsus are red-brown in the middle. Abdomen dark except for large patches of yellow scales along each side. Epigyne with shallow ECP and small openings (Fig. 100 View Figures 100–103 ).
