	This Photo:	S1, Male, profile
	General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA) and elsewhere ~13mm long female, ~15mm long male. Normally females are larger. This is possibly individual variation. Used to think these were Zonioploca latizona, based on the images in Rentz's book, but it's WAY too small. Z. latizona females are ~23mm. They also have a ventrally yellow thorax, unlike the black here. Other differences include the entirely red legs and black head & face of these.
