Map 1

Xestaspis reimoseri Fage, 1938: 371 , fig.1 (male holotype from Hamburg Farm, Limón, Costa Rica, not in Natural History Museum of Vienna, lost according to Platnick et al. 2014).

Hexapopha reimoseri: Platnick et al. 2014: 7 , figs 1–60; WSC 2021.

Diagnosis. Males resemble those of H. hone and H. osa by the presence of a proximal subtriangular projection on the conductor ( Platnick et al. 2014: figs 70, 105) but differs from those H. hone by endite’s P2 wide, laminar ( Platnick et al. 2014: fig. 9) and from those H. osa by labium anterior margin projecting forward at middle ( Platnick et al. 2014: fig. 15). Females resemble those of H. hone , H. osa and H. jimenez by the copulatory opening positioned internaly, under the postepigastric plate ( Platnick et al. 2014: figs 85–86, 94–95, 120–121) but can be distinguished by the postepigastric plate twice as wide as long and by the thick, straight arms of T-shaped genitalic process ( Platnick et al. 2014: figs 59–60).

Description. See Platnick et al. (2014): 7.

Distribution. Heredia and Limón, Costa Rica ( Map 1 ).
