(after Framenau 2006): Males of D. hildegardae are easily distinguished from D. martensii and D. pisauroides by much larger tegular apophysis of the male pedipalp. In contrast to that of D. martensii and D. exculta the female epigyne of D. hildegardae does not have distinct sclerotised edges near the lateral copulatory openings.

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.
