( Figs. 1-5 View Figs )
Satzicus andamanicum Simon, 1888: 287 (description of male holotype).
Sason andamanicum View in CoL – Simon, 1892: 130 (synonymisation of Satzicus ); Pocock, 1900: 174; Raven, 1986: 54 (revision of Sason View in CoL ).
Material examined. – Holotype - male (MHNP no. 9763 and AR 4562), Port Blair (11 40’N, 92 45’E), South Andaman Island, India, coll. R. D. Oldham, no date. GoogleMaps
Remarks. – This species was diagnosed and the male holotype re-described in the course of a generic revision by Raven (1986), but the following details were not mentioned: cuspules in transverse row distally on labium of male (erroneously reported as absent in earlier descriptions; Simon, 1888; Pocock, 1900; Raven, 1986) long and slender (filiform), similar to nearby setae ( Fig. 5 View Figs ); prolateral megaspine inclined from axis of tibia I by about 40; retroventral spines on tibia I strong and blunt ( Fig. 2 View Figs ); embolus of left palp slightly sigmoid in ventral view ( Fig. 4 View Figs ), its base wide and abruptly narrowing beyond the proximal third ( Fig. 3 View Figs ) [right palp rather different in shape (presumably deformed)]; opisthosomal pattern faded, but dark central patch discernible on dorsum, indicating similar pattern as in the male of S. hirsutum , new species ( Fig. 33 View Figs ).
Measurements. – Body length 8.8; carapace 4.7 long, 4.4 wide; opisthosoma 4.4 long, 3.4 wide.
