Callilepis gertschi
Callilepis gertschi is a ground spider in the family Gnaphosidae, described by Platnick in 1975. Like other members of its genus, it possesses ornate coloration and cylindrical spinnerets characteristic of gnaphosids. The genus Callilepis is noted for being morphologically similar to the colorful genus Sergiolus, with separation requiring examination of genitalia. Very few observations of this species have been recorded.
