Description

Asiolasma schwendingeri is said to be the largest and leggiest of the genus. The original description indicates it can be diagnosed by the rather flat body, anterior part of prosoma including eye mound and hood slightly elevated. This can give the visual impression of a massive body, and short hood plus slender and fanned tubercles of hood. Else the species is said to have conspicuously long and slender pedipalps that are only found in this species. The pedipalpal tibia and tarsus are notably together longer than femur.
