Fig. 21 A, B, D and Wunderlich 2008: fig. 7); from O. longituba by palpal tibia wider than bulbus (vs narrower; cf. Fig. 21 A, B and Fig. 12 A, B), the tongue-shaped labium (vs diamond-shaped; cf. Fig. 21 C and Fig. 12 C) and the saddle-shaped marking on epigaster (vs lacking; cf. Fig. 20 H and Fig. 11 H). Description. Male (holotype). Body: habitus as in Fig. 19 A – C; body length 1.05. Carapace (Fig. 19 E, G): 0.58 long, 0.41 wide. Eyes as in Fig. 19 D, E. Clypeus as in Fig. 19 D. Sternum (Fig. 19 F): longer than wide. Mouthparts (Figs 19 F, 21 C): labium tongue-shaped, not fused to sternum; endites strongly sclerotized, with serrula in single row, outer margin smoothly curved. Abdomen: ovoid, 0.58 long; dorsum soft portions pale white, without color pattern. Legs: yellow, without color pattern; femur IV thickened, wider than femora I-III. Palp (Fig. 21 A, B, D, E): tibia strongly enlarged, length / width = 1.49, cymbium elongated ovoid; bulb pear-shaped in lateral view, with ventral side strongly protruding proximally, ca 0.99 × as wide as tibia; the sperm duct with two loops in prolateral view; embolus long tube-shaped, with a basal node (Fig. 21 A, B). Female (SYNU -1559). Same as male except as noted. Body: habitus as in Fig. 20 A – C; body length 1.20. Carapace (Fig. 20 E, G): 0.59 long, 0.42 wide. Abdomen: 0.62 long. Epigaster (Fig. 20 H): without special external features, with a saddle-shaped marking visible through cuticle. Endogyne (Fig. 21 F, G): with stout medial clavate sclerite (AUS), provided with pair of long lateral protrusions (Pr); anterior receptaculum (ARe) rounded, semitransparent, slightly longer than AUS; posterior plate (PP) present, large. Distribution. Known only from the type locality. Etymology. The specific name refers to the similarities to O. longituba sp. nov.
