Almost all specimens can also quickly be recognized by the presence of black macrosetae on the chelicerae (figs. 332, 335) and near the base of the prolateral side of the palpal tarsus in both sexes (figs. 497, 501, 533, 545, 546), and by the presence of an expanded palpal tarsus in females (figs. 545, 547), but the macrosetae are not present in the female here assigned to Scaphiella cayo, new species, and the palpal tarsus of that female is slightly less expanded than in other species.</p><p>DESCRIPTION: Total length of males 0.9– 1.8, of females 1.0–2.2; cephalothorax, legs, and abdominal scuta yellow to orangebrown, usually pale orange.
