DIAGNOSIS: Males can easily be recognized by the large, beak-shaped embolus (figs. 330– 332), females by the long, rectangular sclerite at the base of the anterior genitalic process (fig. 334).
MALE (PBI_OON 110, figs. 324, 327– 332): Total length 2.68. ALE separated by their radius to diameter. Sternum surface smooth, microsculpture only at sides. Endites with distal projection relatively short, wide. 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, r1-1-0; II p0-0- 1; tibiae: I v4-4-2; II v4-4-1p; metatarsi: I v2-2-2; II v3-0-2. Sperm pore small, narrow, slitlike. Cymbium with distal patch of setae. Embolus shaped like duck’s bill.
FEMALE (PBI_OON 110, figs. 325, 326, 333, 334): Total length 3.14. Dorsal scutum covering more than 3/4 of abdomen length, more than 1/2 to most of abdomen width. Postepigastric scutum almost semicircular, extending to about 2/3 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 v3-0-2. Anterior genitalic process very long, accompanied by long, rectangular basal sclerite.
