Figures 124, 131–137 View FIGURES 122–137 Dysderina princeps Simon, 1891: 557 (female holotype from St. Vincent, Windward Islands, in BMNH; examined). – Chickering, 1968: 24, figs. 53, 54 (female).

NOTE: Simon (1891) originally described only the female of this species. He later (1893a:

290, fig. 260) supplied an illustration of the male palp, presumably based on the male that was found in the same vial as the female of this species housed in MNHN. That male belongs to S. soltina rather than S. princeps .

DIAGNOSIS: Females have an oval genital atrium that is almost entirely filled by a sclerotization including the distinctively U-shaped base of the anterior genitalic process (figs. 135–137).

MALE: Unknown.

FEMALE (PBI_OON 671, figs. 124, 131–137): Total length 2.49. Carapace unpatterned, surface of elevated portion of pars cephalica reticulate. Chilum small, triangular. All femora darkened. Leg spination: femora I, II p0-0-2, r0-2-1; tibiae: I v4-4-2, II v4-4-1p; metatarsi: I v2-2-1p, II v2-1p-2. Atrium oval, mostly filled by rectangular sclerotization including darkened, U-shaped base of anterior genitalic process.
