Indohya beieri Harvey 1993: 25–26, figs. 3, 74–80; Harvey and Volschenk 2007: 386, figs. 5–9, 15.

Material examined. Holotype female. AUSTRALIA: Western Australia: 3.4 km SW. of Manning Creek, Prince Frederick Harbour (CALM site 8/4), 15°00′15″S, 125°21′E, rainforest litter, January 1989, CALM staff (WAM T23615, formerly 91/1363).

Diagnosis. Indohya beieri most closely resembles I. jacquelinae as both have 16 carapaceal setae and two small eyes. It differs from I. jacquelinae by its smaller size [e.g. pedipalpal femur 0.365 (♀) mm vs. 0.402 (♂), 0.467 (♀) mm], carapace with lateral setae of ocular row located on same level as median ocular setae (vs. located anterior to median ocular setae), and median setae of the intermediate row located slightly anterior to lateral setae of intermediate row (located anterior to lateral setae of intermediate row).

Description (adult). See Harvey (1993).

Distribution and remarks. Indohya beieri has been recorded from a single rainforest locality on Prince Frederick Harbour (Fig. 6A). The site is situated within the Northern Kimberley bioregion. The sole specimen was collected with I. pusilla .

Conservation assessment. Although Indohya beieri has only been collected at a single location, there is no reason to believe that it is not more widely distributed in the local area. The species does not meet the status of threatened using the criteria developed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (2012).
