<paragraph pageId="0" pageNumber="1">Dorsum - (625-670 (670) long; 405-445 (445) wide) ellipsoid with reddish-purple, bluish-purple or bright orange spot medially extending in a strip anteriorly often to the anterior-medial platelets. Anterio-medial platelets (120-130 (125) long; 65-72.5 (70) wide). Anterio-lateral platelets (170-197.5 (197.5) long; 75-80 (75) wide) free from dorsal plate. Dgl-4 much closer to the edge of the dorsum than to the muscle scars (distance between Dgl-4 325-380 (380)). Dorsal plate proportions: dorsum length/width 1.43-1.54 (1.51); dorsal width/distance between Dgl-4 1.17-1.28 (1.17); anterio-medial platelet length/width 1.72-2.00 (1.79); anterio-lateral platelet length/width 2.25-2.63 (2.63); anterio-lateral/anterio-medial length 1.35-1.58 (1.58).</paragraph>

Rostrum (77.5-92.5 (90) long; 32.5-37.5 (37.5) wide) short and conical. Chelicerae (212.5-230 (225) long) with curved fangs (50-55 (50) long). Subcapitular proportions: ventral length/height 2.17-2.56 (2.27); rostrum length/width 2.27-2.47 (2.40). Pedipalps with stocky, tuberculate ventral extensions on femora and genua. Palpomeres: trochanter (36.25-38.75 (36.25) long); femur (87.5-97.5 (92.5) long); genu (60-67.5 (62.5) long); tibia (73.75-82.5 (77.5) long; 25-27.5 (27.5) wide); tarsus (20-25 (22.5) long). Palpomere proportions: femur/genu 1.38-1.48 (1.48); tibia/femur 0.82-0.90 (0.84); tibia length/width 2.82-3.05 (2.82).</paragraph>

Gnathosomal bay (125-137.5 (135) long; 67.5-72.5 (70) wide). Cxgl-4 subapical. Medial suture (107.5-130 (125) long). Genital plates (150-175 (175) long; 97.5-115 (105) wide).

and therefore this species is not included in our phylogenetic analyses. However, we were able to examine morphology with material preserved in GAW. The overall appearance, short conical rostrum that is downturned in the male, and distribution, are consistent with placing this species in the Tricolor Complex and Tricolor Identification Group.
