Sampey ), deposited in WAM (99/352) . ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality. DIAGNOSIS: Males resemble those of L. grasspatch but have a distally excavated prolateral embolar margin (fig. 415); females (not yet collected with males) also resemble those of L. grasspatch but lack the anterior expansions of the lateral epigynal margins (fig. 417) and have larger spermathecae (fig. 418). MALE: Total length 10. Coloration as in L. grasspatch . Leg spination: femora: I–III d3­ 2­1; IV d3­1­0; metatarsus III v2­0­0. Palpal tibia deeply invaginated between basal protuberance and base of retrolateral apophysis, tip of apophysis bifid (fig. 416); embolus folded for most of its length, with strongly sclerotized retrolateral and prolateral portions separated by narrow, weakly sclerotized median portion, prolateral margin of prolateral portion distally excavated, prolateral portion of median apophysis with transverse prong extending behind embolus, tip barely visible ventrally on retrolateral side of embolus (fig. 415).
