Diagnosis (female) — This species has typical characters of the genus, including the pres-

ence of cloudlike setae, and the absence of lens-like eyes. Body (including gnathosoma) 624 (542 – 708) long; gnathosoma 216 (190 – 240) long, 180 (170 – 190) wide; idiosoma 409 (352

– 480) long, 359 (312 – 400) wide; propodosomal shield 165 (156 – 180) long, 228 (180 – 280) wide; hysterosomal shield 196 (180 – 208) long, 245 (220 – 260) wide; palp 148 (140 – 160)

long; palp femur with equal length and width 75 (66 – 84), strongly swollen on outer side and concave on inner side. Ventral seta on palpal genua (l’’G) hair-like 36 (30 – 41) long. Length of legs I-IV: 298 (280 – 320); 218 (200 – 240); 260 (240 – 280); 298 (280 – 320). Guard setae

(ft) of solenidion (ɷI) 24 (22 – 28) long and slightly shorter than solenidion 30 (28 – 32) long. Dorsolateral setae of idiosoma fan-like, dorsomedian one’s cloud-like. Claws on tarsi I notably shorter than those on tarsi of other legs, tarsi I and II each bears a solenidion, this solenidion is dorsal on tarsus I (ɷI) and antero-ventral on tarsus II (ɷII). Tibia I about 1.5-1.6 times shorter than tarsus I; its width/length ratio is 1:3. Tibia and genu I carry dorsal solenidion (φI and σI) each. Tibia III-IV bearing two serrate, hair- like setae, and two fan-like setae.
