External tubercles well developed
laterad. Anterior angles of the head straight.
Hind angles strongly divergent, slightly recurved apically; dorsal carina shallowly arcuate, reaching 0.2X distance to pronotal anterior margin; deplanate
laterad of dorsal carina, margin slightly reflexed, interim area punctate.
insularis small, most equal to the basal width of the (Franklin) D1 setae, occasionally some teeth
laterad of the D1 setae are longer (Fig.
Mesonotum 2.5x longer than pronotum, shorter than mesofemora, median carina distinct; surface sparsely covered with small granules and few tubercle-like granules with a short carina before half being
laterad of lateral margins.
1C,D, 2E).The process formed by unpaired thick vertical stalk, the short and thick anterior branches directed anterad and acutely pointed, long posterior branches directed diagonally
laterad, much longer and more slender, diverging and glabrous; span of the tips of long branches taking 60% width of midlobe.
Spermathecae with a small cylindrical head and a larger, rounded base, from which emerges a long, medially twisted fertilization duct pointing
laterad (Figs.
The paraflexus is transversely oriented and opens
laterad, while the metaflexus is enclosed by enamel.
19) (note: the anterior process is often hooked
laterad and left at the apex).
Depression
laterad hypostoma, close to ventral margin of cranium: (a) absent; (b) present.
The reticulations referred to by Amaral, if taken as the joining of middorsal dark markings, via diagonal stippling or solid lines to those farther
laterad, are present throughout the range of L.
