Diagnosis.

The male can be distinguished from Allomicythus suochao sp. nov. by the absence of tegular apophysis and conductor (Fig. 1B, C View Figure 1 ) [vs present (Fig. 2B, C View Figure 2 )]. The female can be distinguished from A. suochao sp. nov. by the absence of a pair of lateral pockets of epigyne and spermatheca as long as the diameter of the bursa (see Ono 2009: figs 18, 19) [vs lateral pockets present and spermatheca almost twice as long as the diameter of bursa (Fig. 3 View Figure 3 )].

Male (IZCAS-Ar44427) (Fig. 4A View Figure 4 ). Total length 3.40; carapace 1.04 long, 1.22 wide, opisthosoma 1.86 long, 1.03 wide. Eye sizes and interdistances: AME 0.07, ALE 0.07, PME 0.06, PLE 0.06, AME-AME 0.01, AME-ALE 0.01, PME-PME 0.05, PME-PLE 0.02, AME-PME 0.04, ALE-PLE 0.01. Anterior eye row slightly recurved, posterior eye row procurved. Chelicerae with three promarginal teeth. Tarsus and metatarsus in Leg I and II with scopula ventrally.
