The most remarkable and unique character distinguishing this genus from other coelotines is the anterio-mesally originated, long, single and bifurcated epigynal teeth (Figs 1 A, 2C, 3A, 4C; Wang 2002: fig. 86). Male pedipalps of Bifidocoelotes can be recognized by a bifurcated or spiral conductor (Figs 1 D, 2F, 3D, 4F, 5; Wang 2002: fig. 88). The bifurcated conductor (of B. obscurus and B. bifidus) somewhat similar to that of Alloclubioides pseudonariceus (Zhang, Zhu &amp; Song, 2007), but each branch of conductor is simple and unmodified. The spiral conductor (of B. primus) is similar to that of Spiricoelotes, but extending retrolateroproximally, rather than apically.</p><p>Composition. Three species, B. bifida (Wang, Tso &amp; Wu, 2001), B. obscurus sp. nov. and B. primus (Fox, 1937) .</p><p>Distribution. Known from Hong Kong and Taiwan, two islands of South China.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03C38781FFE1FF85FF7F882FFB85CF0A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The specific epithet comes from the Latin word obscurus, meaning “dark”, referring to the dark habitus; adjective.</p><p>Diagnosis. The new species can be distinguished from the type species, B. bifidus (Wang 2002: 38, figs 86–91) by the large and strongly bifid conductor and relatively large median apophysis of the male pedipalp (Figs 1 C–E, 2E–G) (conductor shorter and less bifid, with shorter branches and median apophysis smaller in B. bifidus (Wang 2002: figs 88–89)), the long and shallowly bifurcated epigynal tooth, the strongly coiled and well-sclerotized copulatory ducts and the ball-like spermathecae of the female epigyne (Figs 1 A–B, 2C–D) (tooth long and deeply bifurcated, copulatory ducts elongate and weakly sclerotized and spermathecae elongate in B. bifidus (Wang 2002: figs 86–87)). The new species differs from B. primus by the tiny pointed lateral tibial apophysis and relatively straight conductor of the male pedipalp (Figs 1 D–E, 2F–G) (lateral tibial apophysis rounded and conductor spiraled in B. primus (Figs 3 D–E, 4F–G)) and the shallowly bifurcated tooth and small copulatory openings of the epigyne (Figs 1 A, 2C) (tooth very deeply bifurcated and copulatory openings elongate in B. primus (Figs 3 A, 4C)).</p><p>Description.
