Males are diagnosed by lacking clasping spines on tibia II, a cymbium without teeth or denticles but with long setae and apical lobes, a conductor, a short embolus (length less than ½ the diameter of the bulb), and a sperm duct coiled ca 1.5 times. Females are diagnosed by lacking palps, round spermathecae connected by a T- or Y-shaped epigynal median duct, and the absence of a scape and parmula (see Forster and Platnick 1977: fig. 19; Harvey 1998: figs 2, 4, 9, 14, 19; Dupérré and Tapia 2017: fig. 33; Rivera-Quiroz et al. 2021: figs 8d, 9c).</p> <p>Composition in Asia.</p> <p>Anapistula appendix (♀, China), A. choojaiae (♂♀, Thailand), A. ishikawai (♀, Japan), A. jerai (♂♀, Malaysia, Borneo, and Indonesia), A. orbisterna (♀, Vietnam), A. panensis (♂♀, China), A. sanjiao S.
