I. Löbl &amp; A.

Nevertheless the shape of the distal part of the lamella characteristica is consistent enough and is a good, well-visible character to distinguish this species.</p><p>REMARKS: A. nepalensis was previously known from numerous localities in Nepal (Tanasevitch, 1987; Tanasevitch &amp; Saaristo, 2006).

Metatarsus IV without trichobothrium. Palp (Figs 89-94): Patella as long as cymbium, with a row of uniform short spines dorsally. Tibia strongly modified: elongated, slightly sigmoid, with several outgrowths different in size and shape. Paracymbium small and narrow, L-shaped.

A detailed comparison of the male palps of all available material of W. martensi and W. nepalensis (see above) shown that they belong to the same species. Epigynes are very variable and I could not find identical ones in specimens even from the same locality. W. martensi, was described a few pages earlier, therefore I decided that W. nepalensis becomes its junior synonym.</p><p>RANGE: Himalayan.</p><p>FIGS 114-119</p><p>Gongylidioides keralaensis sp. n., ♀ paratype from Cardamom Hills, Muttapatti, India (114); Paracymboides tibialis sp. n., ♀ paratype from Ootacamund, Tamil Nadu, India (115); P. aduncus sp. n., ♀ paratype from Cardamom Hills, Muttapatti, India (116); Porrhomma pygmaeum (Blackwall, 1834), ♀ from Kaplu Ghwari, Pakistan (117); Tiso (?) indianus sp. n., Ƌ paratype from Tiger Hill, India (118); Walckenaeria saetigera sp. n., ♀ paratype from Shillong, Meghalaya, India (119).

Figs 105-113, 119</p><p>HOLOTYPE: Ƌ, INDIA, Meghalaya, above Shillong, Khasi Hills, northern slope, 1850-1950 m a.s.l., primary forest near Shillong Peak, sifting litter; 25.X.1978; leg. C.

Löbl [31] .</p><p>ETYMOLOGY: The species name is a Latin adjective meaning “carrying bristles”, referring to the group of bristles on the male palpal tibia of this species.</p><p>DIAGNOSIS: The new species is characterized by the peculiar shape of the male carapace and the shape of the palpal tibia. The epigyne is also well distinct from that of congeners.</p><p>DESCRIPTION: Male (holotype). Total length 2.30. Carapace 1.08 long, 0.75 wide, modified as shown in Figs 105-107, pale orange-yellow. Chelicerae 0.30 long, unmodified. Legs pale orange-yellow. Leg I 2.81 long (0.83+0.25+0.73+0.60+0.40), IV 2.94 long (0.83+0.23+0.83+0.65+0.40). Chaetotaxy 2.2.1.1, spines very thin, their length about same as diameter of segment or a little longer. TmI 0.53. All metatarsi with a trichobothrium. Palp (Figs 109-113): Tibia sickle-shaped, dorsal surface bearing a group of short stout bristles. Paracymbium small, L-shaped. Distal suprategular apophysis distally narrow, claw-shaped. Radical part of embolic division fusiform, with a large conical outgrowth near base of embolus. Embolus relatively short, curved to a semicircle. Abdomen 1.15 long, wide, 0.75, grey.</p><p>Female. Total length 2.33. Carapace 1.08 long, 0.80 wide, unmodified. Chelicerae 0.35 long, unmodified. Leg I 3.11 long (0.90+0.30+0.83+0.65+0.43), IV 3.29 long (0.92+0.28+0.88+0.78+0.43). TmI 0.45. Abdomen 1.15 long, 0.78 wide. Epigyne (Fig. 108, 119): Aperture fully covered by tapered ventral plate, with a transversal wrinkle posteriorly. Receptacles oval, well visible on both sides of ventral plate. Body and leg coloration, as well as chaetotaxy, as in male.</p><p>VARIABILITY: The shapes of the male carapaces in the holotype and the paratype are slightly different (Fig. 105 cf. Fig. 107).</p><p>TAXONOMIC REMARKS: The epigyne bears some resemblance to that of the representatives of the subgenus Wideria Simon, 1864, sensu Wunderlich (1972), but the embolic division shows similarities to that of the subgenus Prosopotheca Simon, 1884.</p><p>DISTRIBUTION: Known from Meghalaya, northeastern India.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D26B579F519970FF48F99AFCDBFFB1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
