Etymology.

The specific name refers to Varys, a fictional character in George R. R. Martin’s book, "A Song of Ice and Fire". Lorde Varys is a character with a venomous spirit, known as a spider in the plot.

Diagnosis.

Ochyrocera varys resembles Ochyrocera atlachnacha in its carapace, which is yellow and bright lime (Figs 1 A–B; 4 A–B) and palp with conical, elongated cymbial apophysis, and have a distal cuspule on the cymbial apophysis (Figs 1 C–D, 4 C–D). This species can be distinguished by the male palp having a cymbial apophysis without an accentuated lateral projection (present in O. atlachnacha ) and by the curved distal area of embolus (Figs 1 C–D, 2 C–F); females have a thick spermathecae enveloping large pore-plates (Fig. 1 E–F).
