Etymology.
The epithet is a Latin adjective and refers to the form of the embolus in the male palp, slender than in other species of the
acutidens
group.
Diagnosis.
This species is similar to
M. similis
sp. nov.
and
M. balbina
sp. nov.
by having an acute median projection only on the prolateral side of the embolus. From
M. similis
sp. nov.
, it differs by the embolus tip, which is more straight and slender, and from
M. balbina
sp. nov.
, this species differs by having a shorter embolus, with the thinner tip being shorter than the embolus base (
Fig. 30
). Females of this species are very similar to those of
M. balbina
sp. nov.
, with smaller copulation openings (
Figs 32–33, 35–36
), but it is difficult to tell them apart. So far, the two species have not been found living at the same locality.
