Remarks on synonymy: Type material of Libania scabricula and L. annulata unambiguously match the type of C. rugosus. The type of Libania scabricula sulcata is lost; however, it is considered similar to L. scabricula based on the original description and thus is here placed in the synonymy of C. rugosus. Some of the examined material is from the type locality of L. annulata, i.e. Sumatra, Singalang (= Gunung Singgalang). All of it unambiguously matches the type of C. rugosus. The synonymization of L. armillata is by Roewer (1954) and is followed here. Furthermore, as Mt Singgalang is very rich in species, all these synonymies should be further assessed when more material from that region becomes available.
Diagnosis: Distinguished from known congeners by the presence of two dorsal trichobothria on the cymbium, distinctive shape of E (filifrom; oval base, tapering to a fine tip; Figs 57, 61), C (broadest just above base, partly straight retrolateral margin, hooked tip; Figs 57-58, 61, 64) and RTA (inward turn approximately at midpoint, pointed tip; Figs 57-58, 61-64). Females can be distinguished by the round CO and S (Figs 59-60).
Description: Male from Gunung Singgalang (SMF 3645): Total length: 4.3-4.6; prosoma length: 2.1, width: 2.0. Leg I: femur 2.2, patella 0.7, tibia 2.2, metatarsus 1.3, tarsus 0.9. Prosoma uniformly red-brown, eight eyes (Figs 17-20). Opisthosoma dorsally with irregular black, diffused spots, anteriorly with white spots, two pairs of brown circular spots towards the center, laterally black spots connect to form bands (Figs 17-20). Legs uniformly yellow-brown. Leg formula 1243, ALE> PLE> AME> PME (AME 0.5 times ALE). AER and PER recurved, eyes on light brown-colored mounds, mounds of LE not touching. Palps as in Figs 61-64. Cymbium of male palp with two dorsal trichobothria (Fig. 64).
Female: Total length: 3.0; prosoma length: 1.5, width: 1.4. Leg I: femur 1.2, patella 0.5, tibia 1.2, metatarsus 0.9, tarsus 0.6. In general similar to male. ALE> PLE> AME, PME absent. Epigynum and vulva as in Figs 59- 60.
Distribution: Known from localities on Sumatra and Borneo.
