ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the
type
locality.
DIAGNOSIS: Males have a greatly elongated and narrowed distal prong on the embolus (figs. 319–321); the female here tentatively matched with the male has similar sternal microsculpture and a long, asymmetrical anterior genitalic process (fig. 323).
MALE (PBI_OON 29397, figs. 313, 316– 321): Total length 2.50. ALE separated by less than their radius. Sternum surface smooth, microsculpture only at sides. Endites with narrow distal projection extending farther anteriorly than remainder of endite. Dorsal scutum covering full length of abdomen, no soft tissue visible from above, not fused to epigastric scutum. Postepigastric scutum long, almost rectangular, extending to nearly full length of abdomen. Leg spination: femora: I p0-0-2, r1-1-1; II p0-0-2, r1-1-0; tibiae: I v4-4-2; II v4-4-1p; metatarsi: I v2-2-2; II v2-1p-2. Sperm pore small, narrow, slitlike. Cymbium without distal patch of setae. Embolus with proximal prong expanded into large scoop.

FEMALE (PBI_OON 841, figs. 314, 315, 322, 323): Total length 3.14. ALE separated by their radius to diameter. 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 1/3 of abdomen length. Leg spination: femora I, II p0-0-2, r1-1-1; tibiae: I v4-4-2; II v4-4-1p; metatarsi: I v2-2-2; II v2- 1p-2. Anterior genitalic process extremely long, only slightly expanded anteriorly.
