Diagnosis Easily distinguished from all known congeners by long sickle-shaped bulbal process and by unique shape of procursus (long, S-shaped, with subdistal ventral pointed process; fig. 580 in Huber 2011 ); from other species in the buatong group also by longer than wide female internal genitalia ( Fig. 170 ). New material examined THAILAND : 1 ♀ , in absolute ethanol, ZFMK ( Mal 328 ), Satun , Thaleban National Park ( 6°42.6' N , 100°10.2' E ) (type locality), forest near headquarters , 110 m a.s.l., leaf litter , 5 Mar. 2015 ( B.A. Huber , B. Petcharad ) . MALAYSIA : 1 ♀ , ZFMK ( Ar 15047 ), Kedah , Gunung Jerai , forest near Sri Perigi Waterfall ( 5°48.3' N , 100°24.6' E ), 100–200 m a.s.l., 27 Feb. 2015 ( B.A. Huber ) ; 2 ♀♀ , 1 juv. , in absolute ethanol, ZFMK ( Mal 288 ), same data ; 1 ♂ , ZFMK ( Ar 15048 ), same data, collected penultimate , adult on 2–3 Mar. 2015 . Description (female) In general similar to male ( Fig. 149 ; cf. Huber 2011 ), but eye triads on low humps and closer together (distance PME-PME: 185 µm) and black mark at ocular area smaller. AME present as in male. Tibia 1 in 3 females : 5.5, 5.6, 6.1. Epigynum longer than wide, mostly weakly sclerotized, with large dark ‘knob’ at posterior margin, anterior internal arch visible through cuticle ( Figs 169 , 187–188 ); posterior plate laterally slightly more sclerotized. Internal genitalia as in Figs 170 and 189 . Distribution Known from two localities in southern Thailand and northern mainland Malaysia ( Fig. 153 ).
