Some species have a spherical abdomen (Fig. 656); in others there are two anterior dorsal humps (Fig. 340); in those species having the abdomen all silver, the abdo- men has a slight anterior median projec- tion (Figs. 687, 688, 696, 707). Unlike in Tetragnatha species, abdo- men size varies little among adults. Males are slightly smaller than females. Genitalia. The female epigynum may have a septum continuing into a posterior transverse bar. To the sides of the septum or bar are the openings (Fig. 14). Some- times the epigynum is heavily sclerotized; it only rarely has a scape (Figs. 336, 343). The epigynum opens into connecting ducts leading to sclerotized seminal receptacles which often have sclerotized, perhaps se- cretory, lobed structures next to them. From the base of the seminal receptacles.
