HOLOTYPE female: “ Texas ; Comal County , Kappelman Salamander Cave , 100 yards N.E. of Kappelman Cave , March 15, 1964 , B. Russell & J. Reddell ”. Examined ( AMNH ). Description. Female holotype Total length: 4.14; carapace length: 1.89; carapace width: 1.26; opisthosoma length: 2.25. Eyes absent. Cheliceral promargin right side with 3 teeth (2 large, 1 small), left side with 3 teeth likewise; retromargin right side with 5 denticles (3 large, 2 small), left side with 6 denticles (3 large, 3 small). Leg I: total length: 5.10; femur: 1.35; patella: 0.60; tibia: 1.20; metatarsus: 1.25; tarsus: 0.70; leg IV: total length: 5.95; femur: 1.55; patella: 0.60; tibia: 1.35; metatarsus: 1.60; tarsus: 0.85. Tarsal claw IV: 0.15. Epigynum: 0.182 mm (half). Epigynal ventral plate with moderate transverse slit; bursa enlarged; copulatory ducts reaching top of primary lobe apex; copulatory ducts constriction located basally; primary pores visible (1 seen); stalk short, procurved, joining the primary lobe at the aperture of the dictynoid pore; dictynoid pore rounded; primary lobe earshaped; secondary lobe absent; fertilization canal short, externally positioned from the dictynoid pore; fertilization duct medially attached to the primary lobe base. Distribution . Reported from two caves: Kappelman Cave and Kappelman Salamander Cave (Comal County, Texas , Fig. 134 ). Remarks. Male unknown. The data slightly differ in Gertsch’s (1992) paper: “N.W. of Kappelman Cave”. The description of the epigynum is incomplete, because it is damaged. The specimen from Kappelman Cave could not be located and examined to confirm the occurrence of Cicurina (Cicurella) reclusa in that cave. However, the locality is included in Fig. 134 based on Gertsch’s (1992) record and indicated by an open symbol.
