Ordo: Araneae
Familia: Salticidae
Genus: Carrhotus
Name
Carrhotus sarahcrewsae Cao & Li sp. n. – Wikispecies link – ZooBank link – Pensoft Profile
Type
Holotype ♂: CHINA, Yunnan, Mengla County, Menglun Town, 48 km landmark in Nature Reserve (21°38.853'N, 101°09.625'E, 1001 m), seasonal rainforest, 30 July 2012, Q. Zhao & Z. Chen leg.
Etymology
The new species is named after Dr Sarah Crews for her contribution to the study of the spider family Selenopidae; noun (name) in genitive case.
Diagnosis
The male resembles that of Carrhotus sannio (see Żabka 1985[1]: figs 63–65), but the length of the tibia is nearly equal to the cymbium (Fig. 11A) vs. 2/3 of the length of the cymbium in Carrhotus sannio, and the cymbium has no apical process (Fig. 11C). Compared to Carrhotus kevinlii sp. n., the bulb length is subequal to the cymbium vs. less than half the length, the embolus has no membrane and the angle between the RTA and tibia is early 20° vs. about 45° in Carrhotus kevinlii sp. n.
