Description
B. albopunctatus is a medium-sized jumping spider. In males, the palp has a distinctive sabre-like embolus, a long retrolateral tibial apophysis that bends at the tip, and a cluster of curved bristles located at the retrolateral cymbial projection. Females have characteristic reproductive structures including a deep, heavily sclerotized epigynal pocket positioned forward from the epigastric furrow, slit-like copulatory openings that are typically hidden beneath prominent sclerotized rims, and a vulva consisting of two pear-shaped receptacles connected by short, wide insemination ducts.
