Figures 673–677

TYPES: Female holotype and three female paratypes from a Berlese sample of early secondary forest litter taken at an elevation of 1800 m in the Otu´ n Quimbaya Flora and Fauna Sanctuary, near La Suiza, Pereira, 4 ° 44'N, 75 ° 35'W, Risaralda, Colombia (June 10, 2005; A. Sabogal), deposited in ICN (PBI_OON 49887) .

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

DIAGNOSIS: Females can easily be recognized by the very long, medial invagination on the ventral surface of the pedicel tube (fig. 674); the genital atrium is large, oval, and undivided (figs. 676, 677). The coarsely reticulate surface of the sternum indicates that these specimens are not the unknown females of P. santander .

Postepigastric scutum almost semicircular, covering about 2/3 of abdomen length, fused to epigastric scutum.
