Figs 9–10, 33, 39, 44

Pseudohomoeomma fasciatum Mello­Leitão, 1930: 57, figs 5–7. Lectotype male (here designated) and paralectotype female from Cuminá River, Pará State, Brazil, G. Cruls & A. Sampaio, MNRJ, examined; Bücherl, 1957: 391, figs 38–38a; Bücherl et al. 1971: 118, figs 35–37; Schiapelli & Gerschman 1973: 67; Smith 1986: 97, fig. 98h; 1987: 97, fig. 98h.

Cyriocosmus elegans: (in part) Schiapelli & Gerschman 1973: 67 (synonymy, here rejected); Pérez­ Miles 1998: 100.

Diagnosis: The female differs from all the other species, except C. fernandoi new species and C. elegans, by the presence of four clear stripes on each side of the dorsal abdomen (Fig. 44). It can be distinguished from C. fernandoi new species and C. elegans by the clear central patch covering more than 80% of the dorsal abdominal area. The male can be distinguished from C. nogueira­netoi new species, C. fernandoi new species and C. chicoi by having a retrolateral field of spiniform hair on the palpal tibia. It differs from C. ritae by not having a longitudinal dark band on the ventral abdomen and from C. sellatus by having a striped dorsal abdominal pattern. It can be distinguished from C. blenginii by the paraembolic apophysis originating prolaterally to the embolus (Figs 9, 10). It can be distinguished from other species by having a long paraembolic apophysis.

Distribution: Known only from type locality, Cuminá River, Pará, Brazil (Fig. 56)
