Knoelle
Fauna Portal Genus Number: 599
(after Framenau 2006): Knoelle is similar to representatives of the genera Venator and Costacosa in respect to somatic characters, in particular its body colouration with a ventral black patch on the opisthosoma. However, it differs from both considerably by the presence of a large patch of macrosetae at the tip of the cymbium in males which is absent in Venator. Males in the genus Hoggicosa also have a patch of macrosetae at the tip of the cymbium, however it is much smaller. In addition, the tegular apophysis is very different in Hoggicosa as it is of a simple, triangular type lacking the two hooks and the lamellar structure characteristic for Knoelle. Hoggicosa also have a very different body colouration with a distinct sexual dimorphism that is absent in Knoelle.
