Hello I’m wondering what is the difference between Hyllus giganteus & Hyllus diardi, how do you ID them ? Thanks

Time to resurrect this thread.
I just learnt this:
Hyllus diardi - Males have a taller carapace in the front view, and the chelicera are parallel; Females their the black "cap" on the head has extensions that connect to the Anterior median and lateral eyes, making them look like they have eyebrows.
Hyllus giganteus - Males have a shorter carapace in the front view, and the chelicera are wedged apart; Females just have the black "cap", but no extensions that connects to the Anterior eyes.
