Caayguara pinda 19 male, left palp, ventral view (ppl = pars pendula; sp = subdistal projection; tp = tegular projection; VTA = ventral tibial apophysis); 20 ditto, retrolateral view (bl = basal lobe; sl = subdistal lobe); 21 female, epigynum, ventral view; 22 ditto, vulva, dorsal view; 23 schematic course of internal duct system. Scale lines: 0.5 mm.
Etymology. The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the Tupi Indian language that means “fish hook” and refers to the shape of the distal dorsal projection of the RTA of the male palp.
Diagnosis. Caayguara pinda sp. nov. resembles C. albus (Mello-Leitão) comb. nov. by the general conformation of the male palp, with the distal region of the embolus strongly curved and tegular projections arising medially close to the base of the conductor ( Figs 14 View FIGURES 14 – 18 , 19; tp), and female epigynum, with an anterior medium septum at least twice longer than wide ( Figs 16 View FIGURES 14 – 18 , 21). It can be distinguished from the latter species by the more slender RTA with a distal, long, slender hook (Figs 19–20) and a smaller, slightly triangular tegular projection (Fig. 19; tp) on the male palp, by the more trapezoid shape (slightly resembling an upside down guitar) of the median septum (Fig. 21; MS) in the female epigynum, and by the vulva with a smaller number of lobes in the posterior part of the copulatory duct (Fig. 22).
Description. Male (IBSP 43199): Dorsal shield of prosoma, chelicerae, legs and pedipalps pale orange. Sternum cream colored with pale orange margins. Labium orange. Endites orange, distally cream colored. Opisthosoma cream colored, dorsally mottled with brown spots. Total length 7.4. Prosoma: 3.1 long, 2.7 wide. Opisthosoma: 4.1 long, 2.2 wide. Eye diameters: 0.20, 0.20, 0.16, 0.22; interdistances: 0.10, 0.02, 0.22, 0.20, 0.14, 0.10. Leg measurements: I: 20.8 (5.3, 1.8, 6.0, 5.6, 2.1); II: 23.8 (6.1, 2.0, 6.7, 6.6, 2.4); III: 15.8 (4.5, 1.4, 4.3, 4.2, 1.4); IV: 17.6 (4.9, 1.4, 4.8, 4.9, 1.6). Spination follows the generic pattern, except metatarsus IV: r1-1-2. Palp ( Fig. 72 View FIGURES 71 – 82 ): RTA with two small ventral lobes (Figs 19–20; sl, bl); dorsal projection absent (Fig. 20). Tegulum with small, slightly triangular projection (Fig. 19, tp). Embolus with distal region strongly curved and bifid, with subdistal rounded prolateral projections and no keels (Fig. 19; sp); pars pendula well developed (Fig. 19; ppl).
Female (IBSP 43197): Coloration pattern as in male. Total length 12.0. Prosoma: 3.8 long, 3.6 wide. Opisthosoma: 7.7 long, 4.8 wide. Eye diameters: 0.24, 0.24, 0.18, 0.24; interdistances: 0.18, 0.06, 0.34, 0.32, 0.16, 0.14. Leg measurements: I: 17.5 (4.9, 2.0, 4.7, 4.4, 1.5); II: 19.3 (5.4, 2.1, 5.3, 4.8, 1.7); III: 13.6 (4.1, 1.7, 3.4, 3.2, 1.2); IV: 14.7 (4.4, 1.6, 3.7, 3.7, 1.3). Spination follows the generic pattern, except tibia IV: d0-0- 1; metatarsus IV: r1-1-2. Epigynum: epigynal field slightly rounded anteriorly, as long as wide; touching part of lateral lobes as long as median septum (Fig. 21). Vulva: pp short, with 4–5 lobes (Fig. 22); fd transversal, very slightly longer than pp (Figs 22–23).
Variation. Males (n = 10): total length 7.4–9.8; prosoma 3.1–4.4; femur I 5.3–6.6. Females (n = 10): total length 8.2–12.0; prosoma 3.0–4.3; femur I 4.3–5.4.
Distribution. Southeastern Atlantic Forest, from Nova Friburgo, Rio de Janeiro to Miracatu, São Paulo ( Fig. 83 View FIGURE 83 ).
