Diagnosis and taxonomic notes.
See the previous species. The male genitalia distinguish the species clearly from argyromma: the costal process of the valve is a short, broad flap only weakly sclerotised, rather than a long sinuous spine.

Geographical range. Borneo, Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra; Sulawesi.

Habitat preference. The two Bornean specimens with altitude data are from lowland forest localities: Labi in Brunei and Long Pala near G. Mulu.
