Indoxysticus
Genus of spiders
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Indoxysticus is a genus of Asian crab spiders that was first described by S. P. Benjamin & Z. Jaleel in 2010.[2] As of September 2020[update] it contains three species, all found in Asia: I. lumbricus, I. minutus, and I. tangi.[1] The genus differs from others in its family by the oval-shaped spermathecae with well-defined chambers in females and by the broad-based embolus in males.[3]
