Annandaliella

provided by wikipedia EN

Annandaliella is a genus of tarantulas that was first described by A. S. Hirst in 1909.[2] As of December 2019 it contains three species endemic to India: A. ernakulamensis, A. pectinifera, and A. travancorica.[1] They are selenogyrid tarantulas, meaning they have a stridulating organ on the inner side of the chelicerae.[3]

Diagnosis

They can be distinguished from other genera by the row of spines found in the inner side of the celicerae found in males, used for stridulation. Their feet of leg 1 is slender, and the division of their tarsal scopula is practically obsolete in males.[3]
