Body length, 1.46–3 mm. Wing length, 1.4–3 mm. Head (Fig. 5A–C). Wider than long dorsally and higher than long in profile, entirely yellow except for the dark postgena, black ocellar tubercle, and black ocellar triangle. Frons longer than wide, lateral margins subparallel, front margin straight, not projected anteriorly to the eye margin. Ocellar triangle polished black, extending to two-thirds length of frons, posterior margin same width of frons, lateral margins straight, apex acute.

The specific epithet  “vasconcellosi ” is selected by the species author to honor the Brazilian researcher João Vasconcellos Neto, for his contributions to the understanding of the interaction between egg-predator insects and spiders.</p><p>Remarks. Three other Neotropical species of  Pseudogaurax morphologically resemble  P. vasconcellosi sp. nov. While,  P. trabeatus (Duda) occurs only in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil (Marques et al. 2022), has a completely yellow scutellum, the remaining species have both scutum and scutellum darkened dorsally. The species  P. tectus (Becker) is distinctive by having scutellum longer than wide, dark fore tibia and tarsi, pleuron unspotted and occurrence restricted to Peru (Sabrosky and Paganelli 1984; Becker 1916). The recently described  P. alvinae Carvalho-Filho, Monteiro and Kloss (2024) is distinctive from  P. vasconcellosi sp.nov. by having a silvery tibial organ, faded dark coloration on the scutum, scutellum, ocellar triangle and anepisternum, and occurrence restricted to the state of Espirito Santo, Brazil (Carvalho-Filho et al. 2024). Moreover, the male surstylus of  P. alvinae has slightly curved lateral edges in ventral view and no fringe of setae along its lower edge.</p><p>Biological notes. Egg sac predator of the ghost spider  Eldar galadrielae sp. nov. There may be 1– 3 larvae inside a single egg sac of the spider. Pupa is brown to dark orange in color. The larvae recorded in the field and taken to the laboratory began to make the cocoon 4 days after being collected. However, the nests of the spiders recorded were exposed to predation for a few days, so the exact time of the larval period may be more than 4 days. The cocoon lasted between 11 and 14 days before the adult individual emerged.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/7771AF52FFE4FFDBFCA2FA6A3C9AFA0E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Eldar galadrielae Oliveira and Brescovit sp. nov.</p><p>Etymology. The generic epithet is a noun in apposition to honor John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, who created the fictional character  Eldar in literature, called the “Star People.” The name “  Eldar ” is a term from the Elven language, given to all Elves.</p><p>Diagnosis. Males of  Eldar resemble those of  Aljassa Brescovit 1997,  Hibana Brescovit 1997,  Hatitia Brescovit 1997, Pipphuana Brescovit 1997 and  Tafana Simon 1903 by having a conical embolic process and an embolic process apophysis in the copulatory bulb (long and transversal in  Aljassa Brescovit 1997: Fig. 286; in Pipphuana, a wide conical inserted in the base of the embolic process Brescovit 1997: Fig. 301; in  Tafana, conical and laminar, Oliveira and Brescovit 2021: Fig. 9A–F; species of  Hibana and  Hatitia lack an embolic process apophysis, Brescovit 1997: Figs. 219, 221, 311, and 312). They differ by the embolic process apophysis with short base and conical, transversal (Figs. 8G, 9C, and 10A–B). Additionaly,  Eldar males present the retrolateral tibial apophysis in two branches. The anterior branch presents a furrow in the middle, and the posterior branch is pointed and curved. There is also an apical, basal retrolateral tibial apophysis finger-shaped, located below the anterior branch of the retrolateral tibial apophysis (Figs. 9C–E and 10A, E, F). Females of  Eldar resemble those of  Aljassa Brescovit 1997;  Hatitia Brescovit 1997;  Ilocomba Brescovit 1997;  Macrophyes O. Pickard-Cambridge 1893;  Tafana Simon 1903; and  Wulfilopsis Soares and Camargo 1955 by having globose primary spermathecae in the posterior region of the vulva. The epigynal plate has a triangular hood in the anterior region in  Aljassa, and  Hatitia (see Brescovit 1997: Figs. 287, 313); triangular and semicircular in  Ilocomba and  Tafana (see Brescovit 1997 Fig. 208; Oliveira and Brescovit 2021, Figs. 4F and 11F); primary spermathecae are slender and elongated in  Macrophyes (see Brescovit 1997: Fig. 145); and secondary spermathecae are oval with long copulatory ducts in  Wulfilopsis (see Brescovit 1997: Fig. 40). Females of  Eldar differ from others by presenting an epigynum without a hood in the anterior region, short lateral lobes, a large epigynal plate covering the entire posterior region, and irregular secondary spermathecae in the anterior third of the vulva (Figs. 9F–G and 10G–H).</p><p>Description. Midsize with total length (males and females) 3.7–5.3. Carapace sub-oval, straight in the anterior region and enlarged near coxae II–III, cephalic region moderately high (Figs. 8B–C and 9A–B). Eyes, in frontal view anterior row recurved and posterior row procurve (Fig. 8C–D), and in dorsal view, with anterior row slightly recurved and posterior row straight (Fig. 9A–B). Chelicerae long and projected, with length approximately half the length of the carapace in males, and about a third of the carapace length in females. The basal condyle is conspicuous (Figs. 7A, 8C–D, and 9A–B), with four promarginal teeth and four to six retromarginal denticles (Fig. 7A–B). Endites concave with wide base, short labium up to half endites, slightly excavated in the apex (Fig. 8E). Sternum oval, with a rounded anterior border and a slightly elongated, rounded posterior border, not projecting between the coxae IV (Fig. 8A–B–E). Long legs slightly hairy with robust spines, flat claw tuft setae with ridged sides directed outward (Fig. 7G–H). Leg spination (formula in the e species description): Paired tarsal claws with 5–6 teeth (Fig. 7G–H). Two rows of trichobothria with striated base on dorsum of the metatarsi and tarsi I–IV (Fig. 7K). Tarsal organ teardropshaped, on the distal region of tarsus (Fig. 7J), slit sensilla elongated on the tarsus (Fig. 7I). Male palp: The tibiae have a complex of apophyses, with a bifid retrolateral tibial apophysis. The anterior branch of the apophysis is triangular, furrowed medially, and the posterior branch is pointed and curved. Basally, the anterior branch has a finger-shaped retrolateral tibial apophysis (Figs. 9C–E and 10A–E–F). Cymbium oval without projections, petiole basally subtriangular (Fig. 7D–E); subtegulum basally massive with three rings, not prominent, transversely positioned behind of tegulum in the unexpanded palp (Figs. 8F–H and 9C); tegulum oval without ventral tegular projection (Figs. 9A and 10A); median apophysis sclerotized, long, and with a curved apex (Figs. 9C–D and 10A–C); sperm duct presenting three or four loops in expanded palp, internally traversing the embolic process reaching the embolus (Fig. 8F–G); unexpanded palp two loops in ventral view, in U-shaped (Fig. 9C); embolic process conical, with tranversal conical short apophysis apically (Figs. 8G and 10A–B); short embolus, filiform and curved pro-apically (Fig. 10A–D). Abdomen: oval, with dorsal setae and two pairs of dorsal median muscle impressions (Fig. 9A–B); epiandrous spigots absent in males (Fig. 7L); tracheal spiracle closer to epigastric furrow (Fig. 8A–B). Spinnerets (only male of  Eldar galadrielae sp. nov. surveyed): anterior spinnerets bisegmented, with basal article large and distal article conical, with several piriform gland spigots (Fig. 7C–D) and one ampullate glands spigot (not visible in Fig. 7D, observed by SEM images); median spinnerets unsegmented, with several aciniform and one minor ampullate gland spigots (Fig. 7C–E); posterior spinnerets bisegmented with basal and distal articles cylindrical, with several aciniform gland spigots (Fig. 7C–F); colulus (not visible in Fig. 7C, observed by SEM images). Epigynum without anterior hood (Figs. 9F and 10G), with short and straight lateral lobes (Figs. 9F and 10G), atrium short (Fig. 10G), wide, triangular epigynal plate, copulatory openings conspicuous (Figs. 9F and 10G). Internally with shortand sinuous copulatory ducts (Figs. 9G and 10H), irregular secondary spermathecae in the anterior third region (Figs. 9G and 10H), globous primary spermathecae projected posteriorly in the vulva (Fig. 10H), fertilization ducts long (Figs. 9G and 10H).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/7771AF52FFE9FFD8FCA2F9D138A0F8F1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
