Remarks

We propose Fagea bolivari Dresco, 1949 as a junior synonym of Prosalpia martini Simon, 1878 . Of the characters mentioned in the original description by Simon, the dorsal black patch on abdominal tergites 2–4 is distinctive, as it never occurs in any other species of Dicranopalpus . Also, the small femoral pedipalpal apophysis of the female holotype ( Dresco 1949: 340, fig. 7) is consistent with that of female Prosalpia martini . Thus, the name Dicranopalpus martini ( Simon, 1878) is valid for this taxon. A detailed redescription of D. martini and the related species Dicranopalpus pulchellus is in preparation.
