Corinnomma formiciforme Rainbow, 1904: 335 View in CoL ; Rainbow, 1911: 254; Roewer, 1955: 620.

Material. New South Wales: holotype ♀, Enfield, near Sydney [33°54'S, 151°05'E], Dr E.P. Ramsay, October, 1904, examined, AM KS6430 GoogleMaps .

Diagnosis. Differs from P. kgari sp. nov. in that the tibial spines of both I and II are strong and from P. venusta in the abdominal widening, the larger scute, and the larger head of the spermathecae ( Fig. 110g View FIGURE 110 ). Male unknown.

Description Holotype female AM KS6430

Carapace 2.10 long, 1.11 wide. Abdomen 2.30 long, 1.13 wide. Total length, 4.6.Colour (badly faded): abdomen with large brown dorsal scute for third of length; widens quickly behind that with widening pallid band; dark brown anteriorly and posteriorly of that. Carapace: with smooth cephalic margin. Spines: I and II: ti v2.2.2; me v.2.2; all long and strong. Epigyne: externally with eye-brow ridges over copulatory fossae; copulatory ducts clearly diverge and as long as half length of major duct, form slender U-loop at ca. half of CD length and head of spermathecae large and pass back touching and then ectally to major lobe behind U-shaped loop.

Distribution. Known only from Enfield, Sydney, New South Wales.

Remarks. No similar material from the Sydney area (Enfield is now an inner city suburb) has been found. The poor condition of the holotype does constrain better recognition of conspecifics.
