Open-holed Trapdoor Spider
Aname
FP-11273
Discoverer: V.W. Framenau (2021)
Fauna Portal species: 11273
Diagnosis
Based on its carapace colouration with a darker head region, the male of Aname FP-11273 is similar to A. mellosa. However, the embolus of Aname FP-11273 is bent more more heavily at its base.
Aname FP-11273 has not been sequenced and it is possible that it is conspecific with some of the molecularly identified juveniles in the Pilbara.

Fauna Portal Records
The map shows all records that have been verified as part of the Fauna Portal project and may not represent the true distribution of a species. Specifically, for described species, check the link to the Atlas of Living Australia on this page for potential wider distributions. Fauna Portal Reference specimens and Linnean types are shown in red. If you identified a specimen that exceeds the distribution of an undescribed species as illustrated here, please contact the Fauna Portal team who can assist with the lodgement of the specimen in a public institution and display on the map.
