Description.
MALE: Measurements (n =1) DSW: 4,4; DSL: 4,2; CL: 1,7; FIVL: 7,8; ChL: 3,0. Coloration: (Fig. 27A View Figure 27 ) Predominantly orange brown, with two white spots on the carapace, laterally posterior to the ocularium. Dark brown legs. Chelicerae orange brown (in a shade darker than body). Tubercles of the DS areas, free tergites and lateral margins whitish. Dorsum: (Fig. 6D View Figure 6 ) Gamma-P-type DSS, with concave posterior margin of DS. Anterior margin of the carapace with medium elevation, practically smooth, with few sparse granules. Ocularium with mild median depression; a pair of acuminate spines. Carapace with few granules, distributed mainly in the lateral region. Areas I-IV without granules, except elevation on area III. Area I undivided longitudinally; with a median pair of small tubercles. Area II with a median pair of tubercles and a right lateral tubercle. Area III with two spines, directed posteriorly located in elevations of the integument, very granular. Area IV with a median pair of tubercles. Posterior margin of DS smooth; with a left lateral tubercle. Free tergites I-III smooth. Free tergite I unarmed. Free tergite II with a pair of lateral tubercles. Free tergite III with three tubercles. Lateral margins of DS smooth; seven-nine tubercles in the posterior half, close to areas II-IV and posterior margin of DS. Chelicerae: (Fig. 6D View Figure 6 ) Swollen. Segments I-II with few granules. Segment II with finger with one tooth. Segment III with 5-6 tiny teeth. Pedipalpus : With sparse granules dorsally in the femur. Trochanter with a ventroapical setiferous tubercle. Femur with a ventrobasal tubercle; a ventral row of four setiferous tubercles, the basal-most being smallest and the remaining three of equal size, distributed throughout the article, except at the apex; a proapical spine. Patella with a proapical tubercle. Tibia: prolateral iiIii, retrolateral IiIi. Tarsus: prolateral iIiii, retrolateral IiIi. Venter: Coxae I-II with rows of four and six tubercles, respectively, those of the coxa I larger. Coxae III-IV with granules. Genital area with few granules. Free sternites with row of granules. Anal operculum granular. Legs: (Figs 6D View Figure 6 , 11I, J View Figure 11 ) Coxae I-II each one with a prolateral and a retrolateral apophysis. Coxa III with a prolateral apophysis. Coxa IV with 7-10 tubercles, distributed on the prodorsal side. Trochanters I-IV unarmed and with few granules. Femora I-III unarmed and with small granules. Femur IV with dense dorsal granulation; a prolateral row of 29 acuminate tubercles along apcal ⅔; a retrolateral row of 34 acuminate tubercles; a prodorsal row of five acuminate tubercles and three blunt tubercles along basal ⅓, smaller than the other tubercles present in the article; a ventral row of granules. Patellae I-III unarmed, with few granules. Patella IV granular; with three dorsoapical spiniform tubercles. Tibiae I-IV unarmed and densely granular. Tarsal segmentation: (n =1) 9 / 16 / 14 / 17. Penis: (Fig. 14I, J View Figure 14 ) VP subrectangular, long; distal margin slightly convex, with distal-lateral projections; straight in lateral view. MS C1-C3(4) subdistal long (MS C1-C2 shorter than the others) and slightly curved; MS A1 short and straight, medially placed; MS B1 sub basal long and straight. Lateral sacs long and apically blunt; with long T3-like microsetae. Stylus expanded in the shape of a wedge and flattened laterally, with serrated edges; with large projection in the dorsal direction and with several tiny apical projections. Dorsal process subrectangular. - FEMALE: Measurements (n =1) DSW: 4.2; DSL: 4.1; CL: 1.5. FIVL: 8.7. ChL: 1.7. (Fig. 27B View Figure 27 ) Chelicerae smaller than the male. Femur IV unarmed. Patella IV with acuminate tubercles as in the male, but less robust and smaller. Tarsal segmentation: (n =1) 8, 15, 14, 17.
Diagnosis.
It differs from other species of the genus by the following set of characteristics: gamma-P-type DSS; ocularium with a pair of acuminate tubercles; DS and scutal areas smooth; scutal area I undivided; free tergites I-III unarmed (Fig. 6D View Figure 6 ); male femur IV with a prolateral row of 29 acuminate tubercles and a retrolateral row of 34 acuminate tubercles (Fig. 11I, J View Figure 11 ); body predominantly orange-brown with two white spots on the carapace; tubercles of the DS areas, free tergites and lateral margins whitish (Fig. 27A View Figure 27 ).
Derivatio nominis.
