Tenuipalpoides zizyphus Reck and Bagdasarian, 1948

Updated body measurements and new data (5 paratypes observed and measured).

Body length including gnathosoma 450-515, body length excluding gnathosoma 355-400; body width 268-290; distance between v 2 - h 1 45-387; distance between sc 2 members 234-245

and distance between c 3 members 240-260.

On tarsus I, solenidion of distal duplex (34) 2.4 longer than solenidion of proximal duplex member (14).

Meshed integument as designated by Reck and Bagdasarian (1948) and aspect of dorsal setae, particularly in the caudal part of the body, are shown in Figures 13A and 13B, respectively.

The anterogenital striation that Reck and Bagdasarian (1948) described as dashed T. in zizyphus is entire and similar to that found in the new species ( Fig. 9D).
