Antrodiaetus montanus: Coyle 1971:359 View in CoL –362, figs. 140, 150, 162, 171, 180, 213–217, 253–255, 295–298; Platnick 2005 (see for complete synonymy).

Material Examined. Washington: near Richland, Benton County, 2 males (JCC).

Diagnosis. The presence of setae on the upper ectal surface of the chelicera ( Fig. 21 View FIGURES 16 – 21 ) will separate this species from all others in the genus except for A. hageni (Chamberlin) . From this latter species, the males differ by not having the metatarsus I swollen in the middle. In southwestern Oregon, it is the only member of the genus to have a procurved male genital plate ( Fig. 30 View FIGURES 22 – 33 ).

Abbreviated Description. All three dorsal opisthosomal sclerotized patches separate; male genital plate with sclerotized parts undivided, thin, and procurved; chelicera without distodorsal projection, with setae on upper ectal surface; with prolateral brush of macrosetae on tibia I, 48–93% of macrosetae ensiform; tibia I with 6–23 (2–13 ensiform) macrosetae retrolaterally, without large heavy macrosetae ventrally; tibia and metatarsus I not swollen in lateral view; metatarsus I weakly sinuous, with one large retrolateral distal macroseta (seta A) ventrally; tip of palpal outer conductor sclerite not closely appressed to inner conductor sclerite; palpal tibia 2.54–2.78 times longer than wide; males active above ground in early August to early November.

Distribution. Great Basin region from Utah and Nevada north to Oregon, Idaho, and Washington ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 ; Coyle 1971: map 2).

Comments. The description is based upon data from Coyle (1971) as well as the examination of two males.
