(A) Line drawings, (B,C) scanning electron micrographs, (D) confocal light scanning microscopy, (E‒H) differential interference contrast light microscopy. Inset of (A) shows enlargement of empodia of leg I, and insets in (B) show enlargements of opisthosomal microtubercles and of dorsal gnathosoma. Notations in (A): ad, admedian line; sub II, submedian line II; tr, trochanter; so, solenidion; and others indicate setae of legs (femur to tarsus) and palp (coxal and genual setae). Arrows in (C) and (G) indicate characteristic ridges present in most (a) and some (b) specimens, respectively.
