Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
Bacillochilus is a monotypic genus of African tarantulas containing the single species, Bacillochilus xenostridulans. The genus and sole species were both described by R. C. Gallon in 2010,[1] and is found in Angola.[2] The name is a combination of the Ancient Greek "xénos" (Шаблон:Lang), meaning "foreign" or "strange", and the Latin "stridulere", meaning "to creak". It is a reference to the unusual form of the stridulatory organ that distinguishes it from other members of the subfamily Harpactirinae.[1]
Its unique stridulating organ consists of a long scopula surrounded by plumose setae on the retrolateral side of the chelicerae. It can be further distinguished by the a transverse fovea, multiple lobes on the maxillae and labium, a long distal segment of spinnerets, and the lack of a prolateral cheliceral scopula.[1]
