Type material.
Holotype
♂ (TRU-JS 0687), CHINA: Hainan: Ledong County, Jianfengling National Nature Reserve, Peak Mountain (
18°43.11′N
,
108°52.32′E
, ca. 1400 m), 17.iv.2019, C. Wang & Y.F. Yang leg.
Paratypes
2♂1♀ (TRU-JS 0688-0690), same data as holotype; 1♂ (IZCAS-Ar44505), Jianfengling National Nature Reserve, Wufenqu (
18°44.42′N
,
108°51.80′E
, ca. 800 m), 18.v.2011, Y.Y. Zhou leg.
Etymology.
The specific name is after the late Prof. Daxiang Song (1935-2008), who has made significant contributions to the taxonomy of Hainan jumping spiders; noun (name) in genitive case.
Diagnosis.
The male of
Indopadilla songi
sp. nov. resembles that of
I. sabivia
Maddison, 2020 in having the bifurcated RTA, but it can be easily distinguished by the RTA has bar-shaped dorsal ramus in retrolateral view (Fig.
6B
), vs. tapered, almost triangular dorsal ramus in
I. sabivia
(
Maddison et al. 2020
: fig. 118). The female resembles that of
I. cuc
Wang, Li & Pham, 2023 in having similar epigyne, but it can be distinguished by the following: (1) the epigynal hood is almost square in ventral view (Fig.
7A
), vs. almost half-round in
I. cuc
(
Wang et al. 2023
: fig. 14A); (2) the AG extends posteriorly, and has slightly enlarged terminus (Fig.
7B
), vs. extending towards lateral sides, and without enlarged terminus in
I. cuc
(
Wang et al. 2023
: fig. 14B).

,
7C, D, F, G
). Total length 6.05. Carapace 2.40 long, 1.95 wide. Abdomen 3.50 long, 1.40 wide. Clypeus 0.06 high. Eye sizes and inter-distances: AME 0.64, ALE 0.30, PLE 0.29, AERW 1.73, PERW 1.68, EFL 1.10. Legs: I 6.68 (1.95, 1.05, 1.75, 1.25, 0.68), II 4.74 (1.38, 0.75, 1.08, 0.98, 0.55), III 4.31 (1.30, 0.70, 0.83, 0.98, 0.50), IV 5.45 (1.65, 0.70, 1.20, 1.35, 0.55). Carapace dark red, with a pair of white setae behind the PLEs, and arc-shaped, red-orange area bearing dense white setae anteriorly on thorax; fovea red-brown, longitudinal. Chelicerae red-brown, each with four promarginal teeth and one retromarginal fissidental tooth with seven cusps. Endites longer than wide, bearing dense brown setae distally on the inner margins. Labium coloured as endites, bearing brown setae on anterior margin. Sternum yellow to red, ~ 1.5
x
longer than wide. Legs pale to red-brown, legs I strongest, with three and two pairs of ventral spines on tibiae and metatarsi. Abdomen elongated, dorsum green-brown except the lateral sides white, dotted, with two pairs of muscle depressions medially; venter paler than the dorsum, with four, longitudinal, dotted lines. Palp (Fig.
6A-C
). Tibia longer than wide; RTA bifurcated, with strongly sclerotized, apically pointed ventral ramus and bar-shaped dorsal ramus; cymbium ~ 2
x
longer than wide, covered with pale setae; bulb longer than wide, swollen medio-posteriorly, with posterior lobe extending postero-retrolaterally; embolus long and broad, distally divided into the strongly sclerotized, needle-shaped portion, and the weakly sclerotized, irregular portion.
Female
(Fig.
7A, B, E
). Total length 9.01. Carapace 3.16 long, 2.64 wide. Abdomen 5.19 long, 2.92 wide. Clypeus 0.08 high. Eye sizes and inter-distances: AME 0.78, ALE 0.43, PLE 0.40, AERW 2.26, PERW 2.17, EFL 1.51.
