:11). The eye region is covered with uniform brown setae, and a band of off-white setae runs beneath the PME and PLE, extending on either side half-way to the rear of the carapace behind the eye region. Unless worn, a middorsal tract of off-white scales also extends to the rear behind the eye region. The sides of the carapace are black with a thin covering of off-white setae, and there is a thin white marginal band of white or off-white setae on either side. The PME are closer to the PLE than to the ALE.

There are no lateral flaps. To the front a tuft of stout white setae extends over the pedicel toward the carapace. The pattern of scales on the dorsal opisthosomal plate (fan) is distinctive, with off-white to light orange patches of pigmented scales that resemble cirrus clouds on a background of light-blue iridescent scales (Figures 2:6, 5:9, 7:5). Below, the opisthosoma is brown, covered with white to off-white setae, surrounded by wide black margins. The coxae, trochanters, and sternum are brown with scattered white setae.

The apex of the embolus is pointed, with dark inner and outer margins converging at the tip. From above, each cymbium is banded, covered with long off-white setae proximally, and dark brown distally.</paragraph>

#1) is 4.0 mm in length. The lower clypeus and chelicerae are mostly glabrous, light brown and translucent. White setae below the anterior eye row extend to the level of the chelicerae at the midline, and a few smaller, scattered white setae are also present on the anterior face of each paturon. Two larger, off-white spines project upwards at the midline between the AME. The eye region is covered with mixed off-white and light brown scales and many small black or dark brown projecting setae. The sides of the carapace are covered with longer off-white setae. There are only a few off-white setae along each lateral margin, but above this margin there is a regular row of short off-white setae oriented vertically. Each dark lateral margin is accompanied by a second line of dark pigment just below it, associated with the coxae. A dark band of exposed cuticle extends toward the rear of each PLE, bordering a middorsal tract of off-white setae. The PME are closer to the PLE than to the ALE.
