Common Scrub Spitting Spider
This species is more common than Dictis sp. A. The male is larger than that of Dictis sp. A, with the carapace marked by narrower, and more widely spaced darkish lines running on either side of a finer median line on the yellow-brown carapace. In some specimens, the outer pair of blackish lines may merge and form a loop around the posterior margin of the carapace.
In both sexes, the eyes are not surrounded by black pigmentation as in the Dictis sp. A male. The transverse dashes on the dorsum are more linear (less fragmented) than those of Dictis sp. A
