TYPES: Female holotype and male allotype taken in open forest at an elevation of 1000 m in Ben Lomond National Park , 418309S, 1478389E, Tasmania (Feb. 5, 1987; J. Gallon), deposited in QMB ( S11633 View Materials ) .
ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.
DIAGNOSIS: This species resembles L. talbingo (see above) but can be distinguished by the longer tibial apophyses of males (figs. 82, 83) and the shorter spermathecae of females (figs. 84, 85).
MALE: Total length 5.6. Abdominal coloration as in L. cylindrata . Anterior legs with darkened femora and tibiae; posterior legs with distal threefourths of femora, patella, tibiae, distal onefourth of metatarsi darkened. Palpal femur with subbasal knob protruding from ventral surface; tibia with two retrolateral tibial apophyses, ventral one wide basally, bent distally at right angle, followed dorsally by smaller, long apophysis (fig. 83); tegulum globose, extending to half length of tibia, embolus recessed behind conductor (fig. 82).
FEMALE: Total length 8.2. Coloration as in male. Epigynum elongated, with rounded anterior and lateral rims surrounding shallowly depressed fossa bearing elevated ridge at about half its length (fig. 84); spermathecae with tiny anterior portion (fig. 85).
