E01C273EC0745861744CF932FA7CF8B6.taxon	description	Note on diagnoses: We are faced with the same problems observed by Levi (1954 a, 1963 a) observing high variability in habitus coloration within and across species, and relatively simple and variable genitalia (Fig. 2 I – K), that offer limited information for clear diagnoses. There is no doubt that Herbert Levi was the greatest theridiid taxonomist the field has seen, and his inability to detect geographically structured diagnostic variation within this complex is revealing. Thus, our diagnoses rely primarily on molecular data. We describe, under ‘ diagnosis’ morphological traits that may be of some aid in the morphological identification of the species including female abdomen shape and colour pattern, and male papal embolus shape and angle. However, in most cases, such ‘ diagnoses’ are vague at best and will probably be even less useful when more variation is revealed through further specimens and when further new species will be described. Description of colour patterns and abbreviations: We attempt to describe female abdominal shape and colour patterns focusing on the four white blotches, four posterior-most dark spots and extent of red colour markings of the abdomen. Blotches and spots will be abbreviated as follows: anterior white blotches (AWB), posterior white blotches (PWB), dark spots (DS), anterior dark spots (ADS), posterior dark spots (PDS), red markings will be abbreviated (RM), see Figure 4 K for clarification.	en	Agnarsson, Ingi, Patten, Chloe Van, Sargeant, Lily, Chomitz, Ben, Dziki, Austin, Binford, Greta J (2018): A radiation of the ornate Caribbean ‘ smiley-faced spiders’, with descriptions of 15 new species (Araneae: Theridiidae, Spintharus).
