Notes

Some of the newly collected specimens above are assigned tentatively because they have a shorter abdomen and a slightly different color pattern. The MRAC has a very similar undescribed species from Burundi (Mt. Musumba), with slightly different procursus tip and longer proximal projections on the male chelicerae (MRAC 226400).
