Diagnosis
.
The male of
S. longituba
can be distinguished from
S. crassitarsa
and
S. medogense
sp. n. by the presence of anterior median eyes (Figure 3G), lacking in two latter species (Figs 1D, 5G), and by the absence of a rasper-like dentigerous process (Figure 3A, B), whereas the dentigerous process is present in the other two species
(
Figs 2C, 6H). It differs from
S. wuyi
by the robust leg I in both sexes (Figs 3
A-D
, 4C, D), as against the normal leg I seen in
S. wuyi
(Figure 8A, B, D, E). It further differs from
S. wuyi
by having a very long basal patellar apophysis, 3 times longer than palpal femur (Figure 4A, B), while the basal patellar apophysis is shorter than the palpal femur in
S. wuyi
(Figure 9A, B). The female of
S. longituba
can be distinguished from that of the congeners by the larger copulatory openings and the longer copulatory ducts around the spermathecae (Figure 4G, H). On the other hand, the copulatory openings are smaller in
S. medogense
sp. n. (Figure 7G, I) and
S. wuyi
(Figure 9E, F) and their shorter copulatory ducts do not around the spermathecae.
