  • Cyriocosmus venezuelensis sp. nov.

    Hi,

    a new Cyriocosmus species: Cyriocosmus venezuelensis sp. nov.
    • Kaderka R., 2010: Cyriocosmus venezuelensis sp. n. from Venezuela (Araneae: Theraphosidae: Theraphosinae). Revista Iberica de Aracnologia, Vol. 18: 87-96.

      Abstract:
      Cyriocosmus venezuelensis sp. nov. from Venezuela, State of Lara and Carabobo,
      is described, diagnosed and keyed. The new species can be distinguished from
      all other congeners by its uniformly coloured carapace, dark ventral band on the
      abdomen and by the paraembolic apophysis in male palpal bulb being half the
      length of the embolus. Cyriocosmus rogerioi Pérez-Miles & Weinmann, 2009 is
      placed in the synonymy of Cyriocosmus pribiki Pérez-Miles & Weinmann, 2009, from which
      it does not differ in any characters of specific significance.


    all the best,
    Martin

    Haven't seen the published version of this paper, but the new one is the species which was being distributed as "Cyriocosmus elegans Venezuela (missing the black carapace triangle)".
    Cheers,
    Richard
