White-patched Heavy Jumper
The male is as large and heavy as that of Chalcotropis sp. A. However, its chelicerae are normal and not as well developed and divergent as in Chalcotropis sp. A. The male can further be identified by the presence of white patches of hair below the PLE, and on the anterior part of the abdomen.
The female is recognised by its size (as large as the male, but stouter) and by a band of pale chevrons on the dorsum.
