Paradysderina carpish , new species Figures 268–281

TYPES: Male holotype, female allotype, and two female paratypes from a Berlese sample of cloud forest litter taken at an elevation of 1920 m on the north side of Cerro Carpish, near Chinchao, Huánuco, Peru (Jan. 12, 1983; A. Newton, M. Thayer), deposited in FMNH (PBI_OON 547) .

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

DIAGNOSIS: Males can be recognized by the distally expanded embolus bearing two prolateral, clawlike extensions (figs. 272– 275), females by the bowl-shaped sclerotiza- tion around the anterior genitalic process (figs. 279–281).

MALE (PBI_OON 547, figs. 268–275): Total length 1.60. Elevated portion of pars cephalica granulate. Chilum medium-sized, distally rounded triangle. Anterior ledge on paturon with prominent, medially directed process, inner margin with short, heavily sclerotized, dorsally directed spine situated near tip of chilum. Endites with ventral process much wider than dorsal process. Leg spination (leg II missing): femur I p0-0- 2; tibia I v4-4-1p; metatarsus I v2-2- 1p. Palps symmetrical; embolus with distal portion transverse, with two prolateral claw-shaped extensions.

FEMALE (PBI_OON 547, figs. 276–281): Total length 1.77. Chilum small. Postepigastric scutum only around epigastric furrow, not fused to epigastric scutum. Leg spination: femora: I p0-0-2, II p0-0-1; tibiae: I v4-4-2, II v4-4-1p; metatarsi I, II v2-2- 1p. Genital atrium ovoid; anterior genitalic process surrounded by bowl-shaped sclerotization; apodemes longer than atrium directed posteriorly.

OTHER MATERIAL EXAMINED: Peru: Huánuco: Cerro Carpish, N side, near Chinchao, Jan. 12, 1983, Berlese, litter, elev. 2420 m (A. Newton, M. Thayer, FMNH 44481, PBI_OON 546), 1♀.

DISTRIBUTION: Peru (Huánuco).
