Data for Pe. conopyga are from Huber (2009b). Description. Body length 2-3, carapace width Carapace without thoracic furrow, AME small, eye triads in males on short stalks, each with small pointed process (figs. 135, 138 in Huber 2009b), clypeus and sternum unmodified, male chelicerae with pair of lateral apophyses distally (Fig. 78). Male palpal coxa with small retrolateral process, trochanter with massive apophysis, femur

Data for Pe. conopyga are from Huber (2009b). Description. Body length 2-3, carapace width Carapace without thoracic furrow, AME small, eye triads in males on short stalks, each with small pointed process (figs. 135, 138 in Huber 2009b), clypeus and sternum unmodified, male chelicerae with pair of lateral apophyses distally (Fig. 78). Male palpal coxa with small retrolateral process, trochanter with massive apophysis, femur thickened but other- wise unmodified, tarsus without dorsal elongation, tarsal organ capsulate, procursus large and complex, without ventral 'knee', without dorsal spines, bulb with single apophysis (considered a homologue of the Pholcus appendix judging from its position), transpar- ent embolus, without uncus. Legs long, tibia 1 in males , tibia 1 L/d -80-100, legs without spines and curved hairs, few vertical hairs, tibiae with three trichobothria each except tibia 1 (prolateral trichobothrium absent), retrolateral trichobothrium on tibia 1 at 4-5%, tarsus 4 with single row of comb- hairs (fig. 146 in Huber 2009b). Abdomen cylindri- cal, drawn into cone dorso-posteriorly, male gono- pore with four epiandrous spigots, ALS with one widened, one pointed, and six cylindrically-shaped spigots, PMS with two small spigots (SEM photos in Huber 2009b). Sexual dimorphism slight, female eye triads closer together, not on stalks, without pointed pro- cesses, chelicerae unmodified. Body size as in males, legs slightly shorter (tibia 1: ). Epigynum very simple, barely sclerotized, without 'knob', inter- nal genitalia with pair of round to oval pore-plates. Monophyly. Pehrforsskalia was excluded from the cladistic analysis because it consistently turned up in different parts of the cladogram (see Cladistic analy- sis section above), increasing the number of most parsimoni
