DIAGNOSIS: Males have a retrolaterally expanded embolar base and a transverse ridge at about half the embolar length (figs. 121–126); females have a straight anterior margin on the genitalic atrium (figs. 120, 127, 128).

MALE (PBI_OON 922, figs. 118, 121– 126): Total length 2.30. ALE separated by their radius to diameter. Sternum surface smooth, microsculpture absent. Anterior portion of endites sharply pointed. Dorsal scutum fused to epigastric scutum. Postepigastric scutum long, semicircular. Leg spination: femora: I p0-0-2, r1-1-0; II p0-0-1; tibiae I, II v4-4-2; metatarsi: I v2-2-2; II v3-2-0. Embolus with distal prong folded, proximal prong short, sharply pointed.

FEMALE (PBI_OON 923, figs. 119, 120, 127, 128): Total length 2.73. Dorsal scutum covering more than 3/4 of abdomen length, more than 1/2 to most of abdomen width. Postepigastric scutum almost semicircular, covering about 1/2 of abdomen. Leg spination: femora I, II p0-0-2, r1-1-1; tibiae I, II v4-4-2; metatarsi: I v2-2-2; II v3-2-0.
