Abdomen. Yellow mottled with gray brown spots, medially with two pairs of gray brown subrectangular spots. Venter dull yellow with yellow spinnerets. Epigynum with a distinctly convex hood. Basal spermathecae close to the posterior epigynal margin and transversely oblong. Copulatory tube long, coiled anteriorly from base and entwined medially. A broad transparent membrane present on each side of the copulatory tube. MALE. Unknown. Material Examined. Holotype female (coll. No. Ha 2011 - 7 ), CHINA , Hainan Island, Haiko, 9 April 2011 , ATBarrion, JLACatindig and SCVillareal. Diagnostic Features. Very similar to C. filicata Cambridge, 1874 but differs from the latter in the following characters, ( 1 ) promargin with four teeth and retromargin bears 10 minute to very minute teeth, ( 2 ) spotted abdominal markings, ( 3 ) leg formula, and ( 4 ) blunt posterior tip of abdomen. MALE . Unknown. Material Examined . Holotype female (coll. no. Ha 2011 - 7 ), CHINA , Hainan Island, Haiko, 9 April 2011 , ATBarrion, JLACatindig and SCVillareal. Diagnostic Features . Very similar to the external features of C . filicata Cambridge, 1874 but differs from the latter in the following characters, ( 1 ) promargin with four teeth and retromargin bears 10 minute to very minute teeth, ( 2 ) spotted abdominal markings, ( 3 ) leg formula, and ( 4 ) blunt posterior tip of abdomen. Etymology. Derived from the spotted ("batikan" + oides) gray brown markings in the abdominal dorsum in Tagalog.
