White-brushed Langerra
Unlike the males of the previous species, the white or light-coloured hairs covering the body are not extensive. These hairs form a prominent brush on each of the femora of the palps. They are more densely pressed on a central white blotch on the carapace, and as a pair of broad bands girdling the posterior margin of the carapace, and on the anterior dorsum. The posterior end of the abdomen is traversed by a light orange band.
The female appears similar to that of the previous species, although the dorsum does not show a distinct triangular pattern. Their difference becomes more obvious when their genitalia are compared.
