Pholcus bicornutus Simon, 1892 Figs. 1509-1513, 1539, 1540, 1560-1573 Pholcus bicornutus Simon 1892: 41-42, pi. 2, figs. 3-4. Simon 1893a: 466-468, figs. 455, 458. Types. Male lectotype (designated here; see Note be- low) and 2(5^3$ paralectotypes from Philippines, Luzon, Cueva San Mateo [-14°42'N, 12r08'E], no further data, with Simon's original label "14789 Ph. bicornutus , Cueva San Mateo!", in MNHN (Ar 10240), examined. 2(5^2$ paralectotypes from Lu- zon, Cueva de Antipolo [-14°35'N, 12ri0'E], with Simons original label "14790 Ph. bicornutus , Cueva de Antipolo!", in MNHN (Ar 10227), exam- ined. Note. A lectotype is designated because male syntypes from the two type localities differ slightly in the shape of the procursLis. Simon (1893a: fig. 458) obviously illustrated a male from Cueva San Mateo. The lecto- type is thus chosen from this locality. Diagnosis. Easily distinguished from most congeners by male horns with brushes of hairs between eye triads (Figs. 1512, 1565); from similar species {Ph. arayat, Ph. pagbilao) by ventral abdominal pattern (Fig. 1511; undivided dark band), by very distinctive procursus and absence of appendix (Figs. 1560, 1561), and by female genitalia (Figs. 1539, 1563; small epigynal plate). Male (lectotype). Total body length , carapace width Leg 1: + + , metatarsus and tarsus missing, tibia 2: , tibiae 3: , tibia 4: ; tibia 1 L/d: 73
