The species epithet is in honor of the first author’s wife, Viviana Motato-Vásquez, in acknowledgment of her constant support and encouragement. The name is a noun in genitive. Diagnosis. Males of G. vivianae can be easily distinguished from all other Glenognatha species by the bifurcated embolus tip ( Figs. 82D , 84C ). Females resemble those of G. australis by the bean-shaped spermathecae ( Figs. 83 A –D ); distinguished from the latter species by having the Prt1 and Prt 2 subequal in size ( Fig. 81D ). Male ( holotype ) . Habitus as in Figures 80 A –D . Carapace brown, darker along furrows. Sternum brown with darker edges. Abdomen oval, with two irregular dusky bands that join medially in the posterior region. Silver guanine spots scattered in two longitudinal bands dorsally and in lateral surfaces. Venter with a median dusky band that ramifies laterally from posterior tracheal spiracle, guanine silver spots absent. Legs pale yellow-brownish. Tracheal spiracle well-sclerotized.
