Diagnosis
Marengo sachintendulkar is most similar to Marengo crassipes and Marengo nitida, but it can be distinguished from them both by the abdomen having a median discontinuous whitish transverse band and two antero-medial longitudinal stripes reaching the transverse band. It also can be distinguished by the presence of a cheliceral notch in the males that makes a significant gap between the chelicerae and "S-shaped" insemination ducts in the females.
