Three-toned Sac Spider
This spider can be recognised by having a body with three colour zones: a pair of almost black chelicerae, a rich chestnut brown carapace with a dense coat of appressed and almost silvery or golden hairs anteriorly, and a plain and creamy yellow abdomen.
This species is closely related to, if not identical with, C. meraukensis Chrysanthus, 1967, described from Indonesia (Papua), and later reported from Malaysia (Pulau Tioman, Johor).
