Diagnosis

For male diagnosis, refer to Dimitrov (2024). The general epigynal shape of Z. namrun is similar to that of Z. thoni , except for the spermathecae strongly converging posteriorly (vs slightly converging posteriorly, cf. Fig. 82A–B View Fig and Fig. 96D View Fig ) and the size of distal spermathecal ducts (smallest vs with the same size, cf. Fig. 82C View Fig and Fig. 96E View Fig ).
