The rest of the prosoma and all of the other legs are absent. Even in this condition, we noted that  S. calcarlacks the large tubercles and spines on the free tergites, which are diagnostic of  Sadocus. Furthermore, the armature of trochanter IV and the long, bifid, C-shaped dorso-basal apophysis on femur IV are strikingly similar to those of  Gonyleptes horridus, a common species in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Therefore, we propose  S. calcaras a junior synonym of  G. horridus. This synonymy made us conclude that the provenance of  S. calcaris mistaken, because  G. horridusis endemic to the Brazilian Atlantic rainforest. It is widely known that Roewer, unfortunately, indicated wrong provenance of a few species, and this seems to be the case for this species.
