Discoverer: M. Castalanelli (2014)

Synothele FP-13308 is currently diagnosed by molecular methods (COI barcoding) lacking a morphological framework for the genus Synothele in the Pilbara.

The species is morphologically similar to Synothele FP-11241 and may eventually be recognised as the same species. However, the latter has a dark marking under the abdomen and is overall darker than Synothele FP-13308.
