                 (11°28′20″N, 76°3′9″E, 420 m alt.), 04 May 2023, A. Jose leg., from litter, by hand  .  Paratype: 1♀ (CATE 10321807b), same data as holotype . 
            </p>
            <p>Etymology. The specific epithet is a patronym in honor of Prof. Suresh P. Benjamin for his remarkable dedication and significant contributions to the field of arachnology. The name is treated as a noun in apposition.</p>
            <p> Diagnosis. The males of  Habrocestum benjamin sp. nov. can be distinguished from the known congeners by the presence of compound terminal apophysis on the embolus. The palp is similar to  H. longispinum Sankaran, Malamel, Joseph &amp; Sebastian, 2019 in the absence of proximal lobe of tegulum and the presence of anterior median tegular lobe. However, the small, roundish, forwardly bent RTA (vs. broad, flat with finger-like projection in  H. longispinum ) and the long, elongated cymbium (vs. short and triangular in  H. longispinum ) with an oval, compact tegulum (roundish and saggy in  H. longispinum ) distinguishes the two species (Figs 3A–B, 6A–B vs. figs 3A–E in Sankaran et al. 2019). Females can be differentiated by the narrow epigynal pockets (vs. broad in  H. longispinum ), small accessory glands (vs. large in  H. longispinum ) and large multi chambered spermatheca (vs. small, single chambered in  H. longispinum ) (Figs 3C–D, 6C–D vs. figs 3G–H in Sankaran et al. 2019). </p>

                 (11°5′40″N, 76°27′3″E, 980 m alt.), 12 March 2023, A. Jose coll., from litter, by hand  .  Paratype: 1♀ (CATE 10321853b), same data as for holotype . 
            </p>
            <p>Etymology. The specific epithet is a patronym in honor of the late Dr. M. S. Swaminathan, the father of Indian green revolution, for his efforts, passion and contributions to the society. The name is treated as a noun in apposition.</p>
            <p> Diagnosis. Male of  Habrocestum swaminathan sp. nov. is mostly similar to  H. shendurneyense Asima, Caleb, Babu &amp; Prasad, 2022 , with the shared absence of a proximal lobe of tegulum. However, the new species can be easily distinguished by the absence of a retrobasal cymbial extension (vs. present in  H. shendurneyense ), comparatively long embolus (vs. short in  H. shendurneyense ), and long RTA with a pointed, slightly curved tip (vs. small RTA with a broad, blunt tip in  H. shendurneyense ) (Figs 5A–B, 7A–B vs. figs 14–15 in Asima et al. 2022). Additionally, the palp shares similarities with that of  H. gibbosum Wesołowska &amp; van Harten, 2007 , particularly in the shape of the RTA and embolus, but can be differentiated by the absence of proximal lobe of tegulum (vs. present in  H. gibbosum ), relatively shorter embolus with broad base (vs. narrow, long, ribbon-like in  H. gibbosum ), ventral margin of RTA straight in retrolateral view (vs. curved in  H. gibbosum ) (Figs 5A–B, 7A–B vs. figs 58, 59 in Wesołowska &amp; van Harten 2007). Females are comparable to  H. hantaneense Kanesharatnam &amp; Benjamin, 2016 in the general appearance, but differs by the medially thin epigyne pocket with triangular shallow notch (vs. thin epigynal pocket with notch not triangular in  H. hantaneense ), the proximal end of spermatheca slender and inwardly folded (vs. broad, not folded in  H. hantaneense ), closely placed median window (vs. distally placed in  H. hantaneense ), and the copulatory openings placed along the medial region (vs. mid-lateral region in  H. hantaneense ) (Figs 5C–D, 7C–D vs. figs 5E–F, 6C–D in Kanesharatnam &amp; Benjamin 2016). </p>

            <p> Remarks.  H. emanasakgrensis was recently described from Meghalaya, Northeast India (Kadam, Tripathi &amp; Sudhikumar 2023), based on a male holotype, which clearly resembles  Chinattus validus in both somatic and genital features. The swollen tegulum with a slightly elongated lateral proximal lobe, the short and thick embolus apicallydirected at 12 o'clock position, and the robust RTA curving inwards in ventral view indicate that  H. emanasakgrensis is identical to  Chinattus validus (Fig. 8A–D, and figs 1, 3, 6, 7 in Jastrzębski &amp; Patoleta 2014). Therefore,  H. emanasakgrensis is herein considered as a junior synonym of  Chinattus validus . </p>
