Males of all these species can easily be distinguished by the clypeal colour pattern: with a transverse dark brown band in <i>S. pilosus</i> (Fig. 413), yellow clypeus with long sparse white hairs in <i>S. glaber</i> (Fig. 161), black with three vertical white stripes in <i>S. hirsutus</i> (Fig. 255), and entirely dark brown/black in <i>S. striolatus</i> (Fig. 468). The shape of the distal projection (DP) of the functional tegulum also seems to be diagnostic (cf. Fig. 406 with Figs 156, 239, 463). The females of <i>S. pilosus</i></p><p>(Figs 411–412) are most similar to and are poorly separable from those of <i>S. hirsutus</i> (Figs 262–263); the shape of the primary spermathecae seems to be diagnostic: round in <i>S. pilosus</i> and elongated, sacshaped in <i>S. hirsutus</i>.</p><p><b>Material examined</b></p><p><b>Holotype</b></p><p>NIGERIA: ♂, Ibadan, IITA, 7°22′39.1″ N, 3°56′49.3″ E, fallow bush, 8 Feb. 1973, A.
