Fauna Portal Image No. 947Diagnosis
(after Framenau et al. 2023): Males of K. erratum are most similar to those of K. confusa due to the exposed, arching base of the embolus and the and the sperm duct that isvisible through the tegulum forming a closed loop. Male K. erratum differ from K. confusa by details in the embolic division of the pedipalp, specifically the more length of the embolus and the presence of a sclerotised retrolateral edge. The female of K. erratum is not known.
