ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.

DIAGNOSIS: Males have the embolus abruptly bent, at a 45 ° angle, at about onethird its length (figs. 410–413), and deeply excavated chelicerae with dorsally directed spines (fig. 408); females have wide, thick apodemes (figs. 418, 419).

MALE (PBI_OON 10789, figs. 407–413): Total length 1.61. Elevated portion of pars cephalica granulate. Chilum short, rectangular. Anterior ledge of paturon with small but sharply pointed process; inner margin of paturon excavated, with wide, dorsally directed spine. Endites with ventral process wider, longer than dorsal process. Leg spination: legs I, II missing. Palps symmetrical; embolus abruptly bent at 45 ° angle at about one-third its length, tip beak shaped.

FEMALE (PBI_OON 10789, figs. 414– 419): Total length 2.02. Chilum short, triangular. Postepigastric scutum only around epigastric furrow, not fused to epigastric scutum. Leg spination: femur I p0-0-2; tibiae: I v4-4-0,II v4-2-0; metatarsi I, II v2-2-0.
