Peckhamia wesolowskae sp. nov.

Figures 27–42

Etymology. The species epithet is a noun in apposition in honor of the Polish salticidologist Dr. Wanda Wesołowska, for her contributions to the study of salticids.

Diagnosis. Male Peckhamia wesolowskae sp. nov. (Figs 31, 36) can be distinguished from other Peckhamia by the embolus with the rR reduced and the pbR truncated and developed. Female P. wesolowskae sp. nov. (Fig. 33) can be distinguished by lacking the abdominal white area (Fig. 28), which is present in P. areito sp. nov. (Fig. 2), P. espositoae sp. nov. (Fig. 9), P. surcaribensis sp. nov. (Fig. 21), P. formosa comb. nov. and P. magna comb. nov. (Fig. 52); the CD without an ovoid coil, which is present in P. espositoae sp. nov. (Fig. 14) and P. magna comb. nov. (Fig. 53); the SS that is longer than wide, while SS as long as wide in P. espositoae sp. nov. (Figs 14) and P. formosa comb. nov. (Fig. 51) and separated from the PS; and SS close to PS in P. formosa comb. nov. (Fig. 51).
