Dysderina furtiva Chickering, 1968: 13 , figs. 26, 27 (female holotype from Jamaica, Saint Catherine, 3 miles north from Spanishtown , 16.Oct.1957, in MCZ, PBI_OON 40607, examined).

DIAGNOSIS: As in N. barreirosi and N. keyserlingi , the specimens of N. furtivus are devoid of both carapace spikes and abdominal denticles. Both males and females of this species can be distinguished by the reticulate surface of carapace and dorsal scutum (figs. 279, 280, 296, 297, 305, 308). Males differ from all other species by the presence of a small embolic prolateroapical lamella (figs. 291, 294). Females may be further distinguished by the presence of one prolateral spine on femur I, contrasting with two in N. hispidus and none in the remaining species.

Map 7. Records of Neoxyphinus furtivus .

MALE (PBI_OON 14382, MPEG 10506): Total length 1.98. Carapace orange-brown, posterolateral surface without spikes, surface of elevated portion of pars cephalica and sides strongly reticulate, lateral margin without tubercles. Clypeus margin slightly rebordered, straight in frontal view. Eyes: ALE separated by less than their radius. Sternum as long as wide, orange-brown, median concavity absent, with a median field of small pits, setae evenly scattered, originating from surface. Book lung covers large, ovoid. Pedicel tube medium sized. Dorsal scutum orange-brown, surface of middle and sides strongly reticulate, anterior half without projecting denticles. Postepigastric scutum orange-brown. Legs pale orange. Spine formula: tibia I v2-4-0, metatarsus I v2-1-2. Genitalia: sperm pore situated between anterior and posterior spiracles. Palp proximal segments, cymbium, and bulb yellow. Embolus rounded, without both prolateral prong and prolateral lamella, but with an additional prolatero-apical lamella (figs. 287–295).

FEMALE (PBI_OON 14383, MPEG 13670): Total length 1.93. Carapace surface of elevated portion of pars cephalica and sides finely reticulate. Clypeus margin unmodified. Book lung covers ovoid. Dorsal scutum middle and sides surface finely reticulate. Spine formula: femur I p0-1-0, tibia I v5-3-2, metatarsus I v2-2-2; tibia II v4-4-0, metatarsus II v3-2-0; tibia III v1-1-1, metatarsus III v1-1-1. Epigynal atrium wide, with median element conical, placed anteriorly in our preparations (fig. 312).

DISTRIBUTION: Known from Jamaica to northern Brazil (map 7).
