Etymology. The specific name is a Latin adjective meaning abundant, alluding to the great representation of this species in the available samples.

Diagnosis. Males of this species resemble those of H. excavata sp. nov. and H. baehrae sp. nov. by the conductor nearly the same size of the embolus, without proximal projection and with single tip, endite’s P1 longitudinally oriented, not folded over itself, and by the absence of endite’s P3 ( Figs 63C,H , 66C,H ); they can be distinguished by the endite’s P1 directed anteriorly ( Figs 60C–D ) (directed posteriorly in H. excavata sp. nov. and H. baehrae sp.). Females are similar to those of H. corniculata sp. nov. and H. marajoara sp. nov. by the absence of postepigastric scape, the lip-shaped, wider than long postepigastric plate and by the copulatory opening positioned on postepigastric plate ventral surface ( Figs 51F–H , 52K , 83G , 84J ); they differ from those of H. corniculata sp. nov. by the Ushaped postepigastric plate (V-shaped in H. corniculata sp. nov.) and from those of H. marajoara sp. nov. by the weakly sclerotized, straight lateral apodemes ( Figs 59G , 60J–L ) (strongly sclerotized, curved lateral apodemes in H. marajoara sp. nov.).

Description. Male (PBI_OON 44911). Total length 1.30. CEPHALOTHORAX: Carapace pale orange, without any pattern, pars cephalica strongly elevated in lateral view, surface of elevated portion of pars cephalica smooth, sides striated, fovea absent ( Figs 58B–C ). Eyes ALE circular, PME squared, PLE oval; posterior eye row straight from above, procurved from front; ALE separated by their radius to diameter, ALE-PLE touching, PME touching throughout most of their length, PLE-PME touching ( Fig. 58E ). Sternum as long as wide, pale orange, median concavity absent, with radial furrows between coxae I–II, II–III, III–IV, furrow with rows of small pits, surface finely reticulate, without pits, microsculpture medially and in furrows ( Figs 58D , 60B ). Mouthparts: Chelicerae, endites and labium pale orange. Chelicerae distal region abruptly narrowed ( Fig. 58E ). Labium anterior margin anteriorly projecting at middle, wider than long ( Fig. 60C ). Endites with a median projection (mp) and a P1 and a P2; mp very short, directed anteriorly; P1 lamellar, directed anteriorly, situated laterally to mp. P2 lamellar, situated behind to P1 ( Figs 58F, C–D ). ABDOMEN: dorsum soft portions yellow. Book lung covers small, very narrow. Dorsal scutum yellow, covering full length of abdomen, no soft tissue visible from above. Epigastric scutum not protuding. Postepigastric scutum yellow, almost semicircular, covering nearly full length of abdominal length ( Figs 58B–G ). LEGS: yellow. GENITALIA: Epigastric region with sperm pore situated at level of posterior spiracles. Palp proximal segments yellow; embolus tip flattened, not bent upwards; conductor present, without projections, shorter than embolus, with gradually narrowed tip ( Figs 58G–I , 60E–I ).

Female (PBI_OON 44911). As in male except as noted. Total length 1.29. CEPHALOTHORAX: Mouthparts: Labium rectangular, less than twice as wide as long ( Fig. 59D ). ABDOMEN: Dorsal scutum pale orange. Postepigastric scutum pale orange ( Figs 59B–F ). GENITALIA: Ventral view: postepigastric plate very short; postepigastric scape absent; copulatory orifice slit shaped, very narrow. Dorsal view: anterior genitalic process with relatively small, slightly recurved arms; posterior uterine sclerite with slit-shaped opening on anterior surface ( Figs 59G–H , 60J–L ).
