The specimen is damaged and photos of it are available at http://collections.museumvictoria.com.au/specimens/1018994. The non-type specimens we examined seem to be conspecific with the holotype and fit the original description. The only difference is a pair of strap-like sclerites on the dorsal labiate plate of the bursa copulatrix, as reported by Slater &amp; Gross (1977), and we failed to find those structure in C. malcolmae and other congeners. However, the illustration of the bursa by Slater &amp; Gross (1977) is not sufficiently detailed, and we refrain from drawing any further conclusions. The male genitalia of non-type material are very similar to those illustrated by Schuh &amp; Schwartz (1984). Although they did not mention the sclerotised area in the description of the endosoma (= vesica in Schuh &amp; Schwartz 1984), it was depicted on their fig. 7.</p><p>Carvalhoma malcolmae is most similar to C. parvum sp. nov. externally, with both species having an elongate body and a dark brown to black dorsum (Fig. 1). Carvalhoma parvum sp. nov. differs in being smaller in size, with the body length 1.5–1.6 in male and 1.9–2.2 in female, the distinctly rugulose and densely setose lateral margins of the pronotum (Fig. 4C), the densely setose pleura (Fig. 4D), and the short antennal segment I, ca 1.4–1.8× as long as vertex width in male and ca 1.3–1.4× in female.</p><p>Carvalhoma malcolmae also shares many characters in structure with C. weiri sp. nov., but the latter species differs in the colouration of the male, being mostly whitish yellow to pale brown (Fig. 1), the head is more transverse, ca 2.7–2.9× as wide as long in male and ca 2.3× in female (Fig. 6C).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/000087F6E320FF99FDC9FA73FA90FABE	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
