Figures 49–51

Descanso formosus Bryant, 1943: 476 pl. 4 figs 34, 41, pl. 5 fig. 53. (Holotype ³: HAITÍ: Trou Caiman, leg. Philip J. Darlington, Jr., 4.IX.1934, IZ-MCZ 21371 —examined).

Diagnosis. Male Peckhamia formosa comb. nov. (Fig. 49) can be distinguished from P. areito sp. nov. (Fig. 5), P. surcaribensis sp. nov. (Fig. 24) and P. wesolowskae sp. nov. (Fig. 31) by the palp with the pbR as wide as pdR. Male P. formosa comb. nov. can be distinguished from P. espositoae sp. nov. (Fig. 12) by the palp with the rR developed and the pdR curved. Finally, female P. formosa comb. nov. (Fig. 51) can be distinguished from other Peckhamia by the SS slightly curved and positioned just behind the PS.
