Cheliceroides longipalpis is a species of spider in the family Salticidae (jumping spiders), found in China and Vietnam.[1]
The species was initially described in 1985 from a single male collected from calcareous rocks in rain forest in Vietnam,[2] by Marek Zabka.[1][3] Females have also been found and described.[1]
Description
[edit]The described male is about 9 mm long. The chelicerae are very long with odd outgrowths, the legs quite spiny with a more robust and longer frontal pair. The carapace is brown posteriorly, with a chestnut brown eye field, which is orange red at the edges and fringed with orange and white, squamose hairs. The opisthosoma features a broad brown median stripe with several yellow spots. On the front end of the stripe there are white hairs, elsewhere it is fringed in grey-brown. The legs are brown, except for parts of the last two pairs, which are orange or yellow.[2]
