Etymology. The specific ephitet is a noun in apposition referring to the Quilombo dos Palmares, in the State of Alagoas, Brazil. Quilombos were settlements founded by escaped slaves during Brazilian colonial period.

Diagnosis. Males of Tupirinna palmares sp. nov. resemble those of T. lata sp. nov. by the TEP dorsal to the embolus, but differ by the RTA sub-apical dorsal lobe represented by a small hump and by the wide-based, sub-triangular embolus ( Fig. 17A, B View FIGURE 17 ). Females share with those of T. albofasciata the epigynal plate with a well-defined median depression, differing by the median depression being sub-triangular ( Fig. 17C, D View FIGURE 17 ).

Description. Male holotype (IBSP 85193). Carapace orange, with median brown stripe extending over ocular area, and dark brown stripes laterally. Chelicerae brown. Labium brown, with sclerotized “pockets” on anterior region. Endites brown. Sternum yellow, with borders and anterior lateral excavations dark brown. Legs yellow, with posterior region of lateral surfaces of tibiae black. Abdomen dorsum yellow, with pair of longitudinal black spots in cardiac area; in median region, two pairs of black spots on each side; subsequently, one subrectangular black spot, yellow in middle. Contour of spinnerets black; venter yellow ( Fig. 7A View FIGURE 7 ). Total length 4.87. Carapace length 2.32, width 1.99, height 0.45. Clypeus height 0.18.

Palp: tibia longer than half cymbial length; ventral lobe of retrolateral tibial apophysis without apical spur; dorsal lobe represented by small hump; ventral tibial apophysis bilobed apically; embolus short, embolar basal process present; tegular retrolateral process rounded ( Fig. 17A, B View FIGURE 17 ).

Female paratype (IBSP 85193). Carapace orange, with median brown stripe extending over ocular area, and dark brown lateral stripes. Chelicerae brown. Labium brown, with sclerotized “pockets” on anterior region. Endites brown. Sternum yellow, with borders and anterior lateral excavations brown. Legs yellow, with posterior region of lateral surfaces of tibiae black. Abdomen dorsum grey, with pair of longitudinal black spots in cardiac area; in median region three pairs of rounded black spots on each side, with connections between them, followed by a huge subquadrangular black spot; venter grey ( Fig. 7B View FIGURE 7 ).
