The embolus is much shorter than that of A. mellosa (Fig. 32), and the pedipalpal bulb is much more bulbous than in A. ellenae and A. marae (Fig. 32). Females of A. aragog are unknown. Description. Adult male (based on holotype WAM T 95404): medium-sized nemesiid ... : Published as part of Harvey, Frances S.
