Figures 129, 131–136

TYPE: Male holotype taken in a Winkler trap in an Andean forest at an elevation of 2150 m in the Estacio´ n Experimental y Demostrativa El Rasgo´ n , Piedecuesta, 7 ° 03'N, 72 ° 57'W, Santander, Colombia (Sept. 21–23, 2004; I. Quintero, E. Gonza´ lez), deposited in IAVH (108133, PBI_OON 924 ) .

ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.

DIAGNOSIS: Males have a relatively simple embolus, which is broad throughout most of its length and bears a tiny, proximal prong at about half its length (figs. 131–136); they have less granulation immediately behind the eyes, and a rougher sternal surface (fig. 129), than do both sexes of the sympatric species P. rasgon .

MALE (PBI_OON 924, figs. 129, 131– 136): Total length 2.58. ALE separated by their radius to diameter. Sternum surface smooth, microsculpture absent, few additional tuberculate setal bases situated more medially and behind anterior sternal groove. Anterior portion of endites sharply pointed. Dorsal scutum fused to epigastric scutum. Postepigastric scutum long, semicircular. Leg spination: femur I p0-0-2, r1-1-0; tibiae: I v4-4-1p; II v4-4-0; metatarsi: I v2-2-1p; II v2-2-0. Embolus with distal prong twisted proximally and distally, proximal prong reduced to small, sharp protuberance.
