Black-palped Goblin
This species is characterised by the almost black colouration of its male palps, in stark contrast with the overall paleness of the rest of the body. The dorsal scutum is broadly oval and covers about 4/5 of the length of the male abdomen but less than 1/3 of the female abdomen.
