Metalacurbs foordi

Metalacurbs foordi is a species of harvestman in the family Biantidae,[1] known only from one male specimen collected from the Ankasa Conservation Area, Ghana in 2013.

The specific epithet foordi honors the South African arachnologist Stefan Foord for his contributions to African arachnology.

It can be distinguished from other species in the subfamily Lacurbsinae by a basally enlarged second metatarsus and dorsal spines on the fourth femur.

Additionally, it is the only Lacurbsinae species for which the male genitalia is described.
