Type specimens: INDIA. holotype ♀, 02.iii.2017, Tuluka road, Satkosia, Anugul district, Odisha (20° 36’ 19.9”N, 84° 57’ 22.0”E, elev. 178m), coll. S.K. Das, S. R. Choudhury and N. Panda, IPU-17-ARA-460; paratypes 2 ♀ same data as holotype, IPU-17-ARA-455, IPU-17-ARA-456.
Diagnosis: Females of I. satkosia differs from all other congers by having 2-4 arrangement of ventral macrosetae on tibiae I (in all other species it is 3-3 arrangement of ventral macrosetae), five ventral macrosetae on metatarsi IV (four in I. malkangiri and I. sushildutta, two in I. chilika and I. satkosia), and a distinct internal genitalia: anterior receptaculum stump-like with a broad, elongated base and pointed apex being twisted distally; ventral lobe with few shallow entapophyses; uterus externus indistinct; interpulmonary fold sclerotized forming a very conspicuous and well developed median flap and with crossed lateral extensions; posterior receptaculum with conical edges (Fig. 16 A-D). Females also differ from rest of the species except I. malkangiri by having three ventral macrosetae on tibiae IV (in all other species one ventral macroseta)
Etymology: The species epithet is a noun in apposition, referring to the type locality, Satkosia.
