Similar to Omoedus meyeri in the presence of guanine deposits in the eye area and the genitalic structures, but differs in the markings on the abdomen ( Figs 125–130 ), the wider male palpal bulb ( Figs 131–132 ) and the wider window of the epigynum ( Fig. 134 ).

Chelicera ( Fig. 133 ): yellow brown; with one bicuspid promarginal tooth and one retromarginal tooth; front surface with a longitudinal ridge and a small process. Palp ( Figs 131–132 ): light brown. Retrolateral sperm duct loop about three quarters of bulb width. Embolus long and coiled for four circles. Palpal bulb wide. Retrolateral tibial apophysis long and thin. Measurements of legs: I 6.3, II 4.8, III 5.1, IV 4.9. Color in alcohol ( Fig. 129 ): carapace yellow brown, eye area with guanine deposit, lateral margins and around fovea light yellow brown; dorsal abdomen dark brown, with sandy yellow medial markings, ventral abdomen sandy yellow, with grayish brown markings; legs light yellow to yellow brown. FIGURES 129–135. Omoedus omundseni sp. nov. 129 male holotype, dorsal view; 130 female paratype, dorsal view; 131 male left palp, ventral view; 132 male left palp, retrolateral view; 133 male left chelicera, front view; 134 epigynum, ventral view; 135 cleared epigynum, dorsal view. Scale bars: 129–130, 1.0 mm; 131–135, 0.2 mm. Female ( paratype , UBC-SEM AR00123). Carapace length 2.1 (variation 2.0–2.3, n=6); abdomen length 3.0. Chelicera: with one bicuspid promarginal tooth and one retromarginal tooth. Measurements of legs: I 4.3, II 3.8, III 4.3, IV 4.4. Epigynum ( Figs 134–135 ): window large; median septum almost triangular with anterior part very narrow; opening to copulatory duct close to posterior end of window.

Specimens were found beating trees at forest edge, especially those with dark lichen-covered branches.
