Figure 8. Euryopis gertschi. A, female PLS; note absence of FL (212-1). B, tip of male tarsus IV; note short central claw (upper arrow, 200-2) and serrated setae of the hadrotarsine tarsal comb (lower arrows, 193-1, 194-0, 195-0). C, tip of female tarsus I; note short central claw (upper arrow) and grouped flat tipped setae ventrally (lower arrow, 197-1). D, ventral view of flat tipped setae, probably sense chemicals (taste) by touch. E, long and slender hadrotarsine cheliceral fang (120-1); note unusual outgrowth at base (arrow). F, details of cuticular outgrowth at base of male fang; this is the only species in which I have seen this structure, and its function (if any) is unknown. Scale bars: A, D, 10 mm; B, E, 50 mm; C, F, 20 mm.
