Etymology: The specific epithet, an adjective, refers to the “terra typica”, Sumatra Island. Diagnosis: The species is characterized by the weakly modified carapace, and the presence of a specific process on the palpal tibia. Description: Male (paratype from Mt Tujuh). Total length 2.15, habitus as shown in Figs 52-53. Carapace (Fig. 53) 1.05 long, 0.75 wide, pale yellowbrown, convex dorsally, with indistinct, grey, radial stripes posteriorly; sulci absent. Chelicerae 0.38 long, mastidion absent. Legs yellow. Leg I 3.52 long (1.00+0.28+0.88+0.83+0.53), leg IV 3.34 long (0.95+0.25+0.78+0.88+0.48). Chaetotaxy 2.2.1.1, length of spines about 1.5-2 diameters of segment. TmI 0.77. All metatarsi with trichobothrium. Palp (Figs 54-55, 60-64): Tibia with a wide apophysis ending in a long, narrow, spear-like process. Paracymbium L-shaped, its distal part bearing several spines. Tegulum conical, strongly protruded downwards, pointed and bent apically. Distal suprategular apophysis relatively long, its distal part almost transparent. Convector relatively wide, triangular. Embolus small, commashaped, embolic membrane narrow, moderately sclerotized. Abdomen 1.00 long, 0.75 wide, dorsal pattern as shown in Fig. 52. Female. Unknown. Taxonomic remarks: The new species is similar to its only known congener, Tegulinus bifurcatus sp. nov. (see below). Distribution: Known only from two localities in the mountains of Jambi Province, Sumatra Island, Indonesia.
