50CDD5ED0D09A033A32B7F6EA066C950.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. According to Dankittipakul et al. 2012, this species should belong to sub-group 3 of the fronto species-group. Males can be distinguished from these in other Mallinella species by the spherical median part of the median apophysis and the irregular rolled apex of the conductor in ventral view (Figs 10, 14). The female is extremely similar to that of Mallinella cymbiforma Wang, Yin & Peng, 2009, but differs from the latter by the thinner copulatory ducts (Figs 8, 13), the wider posterior margin of the epigynal plate (Figs 7, 12), and MOA wider at the back (MOA wider at the front in Mallinella cymbiforma).	en	Jin, Chi, Zhang, Feng (2013): Two new Mallinella species from southern China (Araneae, Zodariidae).

B7DF4AA9EB0CF3537AB80D20E2DFF74B.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Male can be easily distinguished from other Mallinella males by the extremely narrow and long median apophysis (almost 2 / 3 cymbium length in ventral view), by the ventral row of plumose hairs near the tip of the cymbium (Figs 20, 22, 24), and also by the dense dorsal hair cover of the opisthosoma (Fig. 16).	en	Jin, Chi, Zhang, Feng (2013): Two new Mallinella species from southern China (Araneae, Zodariidae).
