03F787B4AC6FE913FF00FEA1CBDBDC4B.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. In overall appearance this species is very similar to H. roberta Hamilton and Holzenthal from Georgia and H. hamiltoni Harris from Eglin Air Force Base in northern Florida. As with both these species, H. murtlei has a bulbous segment X and narrow inferior appendages which are straight in both lateral and ventral aspects. The new species can be distinguished by the relative lengths of the phallus sections; in H. roberta the apical and basal portions of the phallus are about equal in length; in H. hamiltoni, the apical portion is much shorter than the basal portion; in H. murtlei the basal portion is about twice the length of the apical portion. As well, the apical portion of the phallus in both H. roberta and H. hamiltoni is curved, particularly so in H. hamiltoni, while in H. murtlei the apical portion is straight. Additionally, the inferior appendage of H. murtlei narrows apically compared to the rounded apices in both H. roberta and H. hamiltoni.	en	Harris, Steven C., Rasmussen, Andrew K., Denson, Dana R.

This new species appears most similar to H. maculata (Banks) (Fig. 3), which is widespread in Florida east of the Apalachicola River, and several related species, with the tenth tergum having elongate processes and a posteroventral extension of segment VIII. From H. maculata, H. criokera is distinguished by strongly diverging inferior appendages, which are not diverging in H. maculata, and by the elongate, stout setae from the posterodorsal margin of segment IX, which are lacking in H. maculata.	en	Harris, Steven C., Rasmussen, Andrew K., Denson, Dana R.
