(CHNUFPI 1267).   Diagnosis.  Ariadna caparao  n. sp.is similar to  A. lemosi  n. sp.due to the morphology of the male palp ( Figs 65A‒B, 66F‒G), but differs by the sinuous metatarsi I ( Fig. 64D‒F), chelicerae with lamelliform distal dorsoprolateral projections ( Fig. 64C), and abdomen mostly dark dorsally ( Fig. 64A); females resembles  A. obscuradue to the tibiae I‒II macrosetae pattern, but differs by the anterior receptaculum without an expanded base and with the dorsal lobe long and almost straight ( Fig. 65C‒D).   Etymology.The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the typelocality, Parque Nacional da Serra do Caparaó, Alto Caparaó, Minas Gerais, Brazil.   Description.
