Stenaelurillus jocquei

The male light form has iridenscent hairs on the clypeus and its brown eye field.

The species can be best distinguished from the similar Stenaelurillus hirsutus by its copulatory organs.

The male has a ribbon-like spiralling embolus and the female has large round spermathecae.

[5] The species is named after Rudy Jocqué, the collector of the type series.

[6] The spider is medium-sized and appears in two forms, which have identical copulatory organs but different colouration.

[7] The light form female is similar to the male in shape but overall slightly larger.

[7] The colouring is similar to the male but lighter, and the iridescent hairs are lacking.

[1] The holotype was identified based on a specimen collected in a gallery forest in the Faro Game Reserve in 2007.
