Etymology. The specific name is a noun in apposition from the type locality name.

Diagnosis. Males of Actinopus lomalinda differ from all other species of the genus by the apical tegular process of 3/4 the size of the embolus and tegulum without prolaterals apophysis in dorsal view. A. robustus ( Fig. 181 View FIGURE 181 A–C), A. palmar ( Fig. 189 View FIGURE 189 A–C), A. cucutaensis ( Fig. 176 View FIGURE 176 A–C) and A. guajara ( Fig. 192 View FIGURE 192 A–C) shared with A. lomalinda those ATP, but only in A. cucutaensis , A. lomalinda and A. guajara those ATP appears separated and parallel to the embolus in prolateral view. They differ from those of A. cucutaensis by the ATP angle of insertion on tegulum and in the presence of a small-serrated area, which occupies only 20% of the embolus, in dorsal view ( Fig. 186 View FIGURE 186 A–C). Females differ from all other species, except A. obidos ( Fig. 26 D View FIGURE 26 ) by a spermathecae with a unique receptacle. Differs from A. obidos by absence of swelling on external lateral of receptacle ( Fig. 186 D View FIGURE 186 ).
