Baddeley( MRAC 166643).   FIGURES 241–244.  Thyenula wesolowskae Zhang et Maddison, 2012. 241 male, dorsal view; 242 cheliceral dentition; 243 palpal organ, ventral view; 244 palpal organ, retrolateral view.    Paratypes:together with holotype, 4 males( MRAC); same data, 2 males, 5 females( MRAC 166642);  Transkeicoast, Ntafufu river, 31°33'S: 29°38'E, 2 males, February-March1980, leg. M. Baddeley( MRAC 166732).   Diagnosis.A distinctive species, the male is easily distinguished from other species by the stout chelicerae with the very large, es-shaped, bicuspid, retrolateral tooth. The male palp structure is similar to that in  T. alotamadescribed above, but palp is slender. The structure of the epigyne also resembles that in the latter species, but the width of the seminal ducts is the same along all their length (thinner towards spermathecae in  T. alotama).   Etymology.The specific name is Latin, meaning causing wounds, and refers to the strong armament of male chelicerae.   Description.Measurements (male/female). Cephalothorax: length 3.1–4.5/3.1–3.7, width 2.4–4.0/2.3–3.0, height 1.7–2.3/1.6–1.7. Abdomen: length 3.0–5.0/3.8–4.6, width 1.9–3.4/2.6–3.3. Eye field: length 1.6–2.2/ 1.6–1.8, anterior width 2.1–3.1/1.8–1.9, posterior width 2.2–3.2/2.4–2.5.  Male. General appearance as in Fig. 233. Medium to large spider. Carapace oval, dark brown, slightly lighter in foveal area, clothed in faint translucent and brown hairs. Anterior eyes encircled by fawn hairs, some long brown bristles at anterior eyes. Clypeus very low, dark. Chelicerae large, robust, blackish, with two teeth wide apart on promarginal edge and very large and broad tooth on retromarginal edge, also inner margin at the base of fang strongly sclerotized ( Figs 234, 235). Labium and endites brown with thin whitish line along tips; sternum light brown. Abdomen ovoid, dark, greyish brown, translucent hairs cover dorsum, among them scarce long bristles. Venter yellow tinged with grey. Spinnerets greyish. Legs dark brown, first pair almost black, stouter and longer than others, covered - especially ventral surfaces of tibiae - with dense long dark hairs. Pedipalps relatively small, dark, clothed in dense whitish grey hairs. Femur of palp long, embolus thin, with close basal loop ( Figs 236, 237).   FIGURES 245–249.  Thyenula wesolowskae Zhang et Maddison, 2012. 245 female, dorsal view; 246, 248 epigyne; 247 internal structure of epigyne, ventral view; 249 internal structure of epigyne, dorsal view.  Female. Similar to male, slightly lighter coloured, general appearance as in Fig. 238. Yellowish median belt on thoracic part of carapace. Some whitish hairs on slopes. Chelicerae large, typical, promargin with two teeth, retromargin unident. Abdomen beige grey, sometimes with indistinct pattern composed of small brownish spots, covered with translucent hairs, among them scarce long brown bristles. Venter light beige. Legs light brown with darker patches. Epigyne as in Fig. 239. Internal structure simple, spermathecae large ( Fig. 240).   Distribution.Known from Transkei coast in eastern South Africa. 3319295420 1980-02 MRAC M.
