Diagnosis. Males of Ohvida fulvorufa resemble those of O. coxana by the short retrodorsal projection on the cymbium, but can be distinguished from the remaining species of the genus by the presence of numerous prolateral short spines on the male palp tibia (Fig. 2 A). Females of O. fulvorufa can be distinguished from the remaining species by the slightly elevated median epigynal area, the shape of the lateral epigynal spurs (Fig. 2 C), and by the shape of the spermathecae (Fig. 2 D).
