* Epidius binotatus Simon, 1897 Figs 33 A–C, 34 A–D, 38 E, F Epidius binotatus Simon, 1897 b: 491. Lessert 1930: 666, fig 36; Lessert 1943: 335, fig 38. Type material: Syntypes of Epidius binotatus: 1 male 1 female 1 juvenile from SIERRA LEONE: ‘Freetown’ (MNHN 13670 / 1574), no more data given, examined (Figs 33 A, 34 A, B). Other material examined. CÔTE D’IVOIRE: 1 female, Appouesso, FC Bossematié, rain forest, station 1, 13 September 1995, R. Jocqué (MRAC 202642). DR CONGO: 3 females, Sankuru, Komi, no more data given (MHNG). 1 male 1 female, Poko, no more data given (MHNG). GABON. 1 male, Route Noayon, Sofor, 11 March 1986, A.Pauly (MRAC 172.760). Diagnosis. Males can be separated by the hook-shaped E and MA. Both the E and MA are short necked with a rather blunt end (Figs 33 A–C). Further, the E is much shorter than that of Asian species. Females can be separated by the CO, which face each other, and also by the C-shaped epigyne (Figs 34 A–D, 38 E, F).Published as part of SURESH P.

Paratypes: 3 male 3 females, same data as holotype. Etymology. Named after Tanzanian tribal Chief Mkwavinyika Munyigumba Mwamuyinga (1855 –1898) commonly known as Chief Mkwawa. He was a tribal leader in German East Africa (Tanzania) who opposed the German colonization. Mkwawa, meaning "conqueror of many lands" was a very early user of guerrilla warfare. Used as a noun in apposition. Description. Male (holotype): Total length: 4.0; prosoma length: 2.0, width: 1.7. Leg I: femur 4.0, patella 0.8, tibia 3.8, metatarsus 3.2, tarsus 1.8. Prosoma light yellow, laterals darker. Opisthosoma brown-yellow with white and black patches as in Fig 6 E. AER and PER recurved. AME smaller than the rest. Palp as in Figs 44 A, 45 A–F. Female: Total length: 5.4; prosoma length: 2.4, width: 2.2. Leg I: femur 3.6, patella 1.2, tibia 3.2, metatarsus 2.4, tarsus 1.2. Color and markings as in male. Epigynum and vulva as in Figs 44 C, 44 D, 46 D.Published as part of SURESH P. BENJAMIN, 2011, Phylogenetics and comparative morphology of crab spiders (Araneae: Dionycha, Thomisidae), pp. 1-108 in Zootaxa 3080 on page 17, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.104944
Borboropactus Simon 1884
Genus Borboropactus Simon, 1884 Type species: Borboropactus squalidus Simon, 1884 Fig 20 C Diagnosis. Borboropactus can be diagnosed by the presence of an epigynal plate or folds (Figs 18 D, 19 C, 20 C, D, 21 A, B, 23 A, B), the unique sensory patch on tarsi (Figs 24 C–E), canoe-shaped tapetum and straight PER. Further, Borboropactus can be separated from all other thomisids, except for Geraesta and Angaeus Thorell, 1881, by presence of a rudimentary RTA in males and ET in females. Both Geraesta and Angaeus posses a well developed RTA and sometimes DTA/VTA (Figs 39 B, 39 C, 40 E; Tang & Li 2009). Composition. 15 species, plus the two new species described below; see Platnick (2011) for a listing of all described species. Distribution. Old World, from Africa to New Guinea.Published as part of SURESH P. BENJAMIN, 2011, Phylogenetics and comparative morphology of crab spiders (Araneae: Dionycha, Thomisidae), pp. 1-108 in Zootaxa 3080 on page 11, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.104944
