Figs 25–27, 41

Type material. Holotype: Male (IZCAS), underside of leaves [15°11.679′N, 106°06.085′E, alt. 839 m], Tad Etu, Champasak, Laos, 19 November 2012, leg. Z. Yao (Yao-LA 029–030).

Etymology. The specific name is from Latin longus (long), in reference to the long opisthosoma; adjective.

Diagnosis. The species resembles C. saluang (Huber 2011: 48, figs 43–44 and 153–169), but can be distinguished by different shape of distal apophyses of male chelicerae (Figs 26 A and 27C), presence of small distal apophyses on curving ventral apophysis of pedipalpal trochanter (Fig. 26 B) and different shape of distal sclerites of procursus (Figs 25 A–D and 27A–B).

Description. Male (holotype): Total length 5.99 (6.15 with clypeus), prosoma 0.84 long, 0.81 wide, opisthosoma 5.15 long, 0.36 wide. Leg I: 35.81 (8.72 + 0.36 + 7.82 + 16.03 + 2.88), leg II lost, leg III: 16.05 (4.81 + 0.30 + 3.85 + 6.15 + 0.94), leg IV: 27.00 (7.50 + 0.31 + 6.60 + 11.28 + 1.31); tibia I L/d: 112. Habitus as in Figs 26 C–E. Dorsal shield of prosoma and sternum yellowish, without marks. Legs yellowish, but dark brown on femora (distally), patellae and tibia-metatarsus joints, without darker rings. Opisthosoma yellowish, with spots dorsally and laterally. Distance PME-PME 0.26, diameter PME 0.11, distance PME-ALE 0.03, AME absent.

Ocular area not elevated; each eye triad on top of a relatively shorter eye-stalk directed towards laterally. Thoracic furrow absent. Sternum longer than wide (0.63/0.59). Chelicerae as in Figs 26 A and 27C, with a pair of black distal apophyses provided with an angular proximal apophysis each, and a pair of unsclerotized lateral apophyses distally. Pedipalpi as in Figs 25 A–B and 27A–B; trochanter with a curving ventral apophysis provided with small distal apophyses; femur with three distinctive proximal apophyses; procursus long but simple, only distal part more complex; bulb elongated; uncus sclerotized proximally but transparent distally; embolus weakly sclerotized, with some transparent projections distally. Retrolateral trichobothrium of tibia I at 2%; legs with few vertical hairs, without spines and curved hairs; pseudosegments not visible.

Variation: Unknown.

Female: Unknown.
