Martensolasma

Description

Martensolasma n. g.

Type species: Martensolasma jocheni n. sp.

Diagnosis: Distinct from Ortholasma and Dendrolasma in lacking a hood projecting over the chelicerae, and in exhibiting complete scutum magnum. Leg femora with few or no pseudoarticulations. Penial setation monomorphic, consisting of few very small, acute setae. Male chelicerae with tooth­like projections on proximal and median articles. Male pedipalpi with epigamic glands in patellae and tibiae.

Etymology: The name of the genus is neuter and represents a combination of the name Martens with ‘­ lasma,” a combining suffix used in this subfamily.
