The epigyne is quite distinctive by the divided posterior window and the vulva with the anteriorly extended intertwined coiled tubes, <i>Description</i>.— MALE. Total length 3,75 mm.

Sternum lustrous, with some small round pits. Legs: tibia I with 8 pairs of ventral spines, tibia II with 7pv, 6rv, metatarsus I with 6 pairs, metatarsus II with 6 <i>pv</i>, 5rv, leg III and IV spineless. Femora of palps with a row of 4 ventral spines on sockets. Abdomen entirely covered with dorsal scutum, ventrally with epigastric scutum and post-genital scutum stretches to halfway the spinnerets. Palp see diagnosis and figs 401, 402; embolus accompanied by membranous tegular apophysis, conductor bifid, FEMALE. Total length 3.25 mm. Carapace length 1.65 mm, width 1.00 mm, head width 0.75 mm eye group width 0.50 mm; abdomen length 1.80 mm, width 1.00 mm, epigyne 0.35 mm wide. Leg lengths: leg I 5.40 mm (1.30-2.00 -1.50-0.60). leg II 4.30 mm (1.10­ 1.60 -1.1 0-0.50); leg III 3.50 mm (0. 90-1.20 -0.95-0.45); leg IV 4.85 mm (1.20-1.60 -1.40­ 0.65), palp 0.60-0.25-0.35- 0.60 mm. Spine formula: tibia I with 8 pairs of ventral spines, tibia II with 7-8pv, 6-8rv, metatarsus I 6 pv, 6rv, metatarsus II 5 pv, 4 <i>rv</i>; palpal femur a row of 4v; legs III and IV spineless. Extent of dorsal scutu m variable, in some covering half, in others over 3/4 of abdom inal length. Epigyne see diagnosis and fig. 403, vulva fig. 404, the structure is somew hat similar to that in <i>K. baerti.</i> It consists of a small rigid posterior cover over the window, on the sides of which lie the copulatory openings: anteriorly are seen wide coils of tubiform bursae, similar to those in <i> <i>K.</i> baerti</i> , posteriorly a pair of median dark ducts, laterally the small spermathecae. <i>Distribution.</i> — Central Sulawesi. <i>Etymology</i>.— The word "no" refers to the saying that Central Sulawesi is inhabited by numerous tribes among which exist 50 different ways to say no!
