comb. nov.

Decaphora ambigua ( Caporiacco, 1938) comb. nov.

Pseudosparianthis ambiguus Caporiacco, 1938: 269 (Holotype immature female from Guatemala, Izabal, Puerto Barrios   GoogleMaps [15.7278, -88.5944], A. Taibel leg., MZUB, not examined).

Note. Decaphora ambigua comb. nov. is known solely from a juvenile specimen. Nevertheless, the original description mentions characters that are congruent with those of Decaphora View in CoL , especially the presence of six small teeth on the retromargin of the chelicerae. All other Neotropical Sparianthinae genera have only two small teeth on the retromargin. In addition, the type locality of D. ambigua falls within the distribution range of Decaphora View in CoL , known from southern Florida to Costa Rica, with one species occurring in western Colombia.
