Prionolaema aetherea Simon, 1894a: 725. P. a. Simon, 1895g: 150.
Types. Subadult male holotypefrom Venezuela, collected in Tovar (MNHN 10128, examined). Justification of the transfer: The typespecimen of this species is a subadult male which makes impossible the study of the adult palpal morphology ( Fig. 2A–B). However, based on general somatic morphology (eyes distribution, abdomen shape, cheliceral shape and lack of feathered trichobothria on femora IV) this specimen should be placed in the genus Tetragnatha.
