Etymology. The specific name is a noun in apposition from the type locality name.

Diagnosis. Males of Actinopus itacolomi resemble those of A. longipalpis ( Fig. 156 View FIGURE 156 A–C), A. tutu ( Fig. 143 View FIGURE 143 A–C) and A. azaghal ( Fig. 148 View FIGURE 148 A–C) by the presence of three keels in prolateral view of embolus, small total length, and inconspicuous patterns of coloration on legs and palp, when present. Differs from A. longipalpis by the presence of embolar serrated area. They resemble those of A. tutu by BTA inserted medialy in the prolateral tegulum. They differ from those of all those species by the point of origin of PA between PI and PAc; serrated area, along to PAc; tegulum and embolus large; swelling above PA present.
