Comparative diagnosis. Major males of Neoscotolemon spinifer differs from males of all other species of Neoscotolemon (except from major males of N. tancahensis ) by the presence of enlarged pointed setiferous tubercles on the lateral regions of free tergite III ( Figs 22A ; 23A ; 24A ). Males of Neoscotolemon spinifer are easily distinguished from N. armasi by the absence of a pseudochela in the enlarged tarsus of the pedipalp ( Figs 22B, C ; 23D, E ; 25A, B vs. Fig. 8E ). Additionally, N. spinifer can be separated from N. pictipes by the presence of a medial long pointed setiferous tubercle on free tergites I–III ( Figs 22A, C ; 23A, B ; 24A, E vs. Figs 1A ; 2A, D ). Another distinguished feature is that Neoscotolemon spinifer has scattered granules on the dorsal surface of the pedipalp tibia ( Figs 23D, E ; 25B ), whereas N. pictipes has a smooth pedipalp tibia ( Fig. 3A, B ); this characteristic is also useful for differentiating N. spinifer from its most morphologically similar species, N. tancahensis , which lacks the long, pointed medial setiferous tubercles on each free tergite exhibited by N. spinifer ( Figs 22A, C ; 23A, B ; 24A, E vs. Figs 29A, C ; 30A, B ; 31A, D ).

Redescription. Major male (holotype, AMNH; 1 male AMNH; 1 male USNM). Body measurements: Total body length 3.14, carapace length 1.00, scutum magnum length 2.46, carapace maximum width 1.51, abdominal scutum maximum width 2.20. Appendage measurements in Table 4 .

Trochanter rounded, with three dorsal, one mesal setiferous pointed tubercles, and two ventral setiferous conical tubercles ( Figs 23D, E ; 24B ; 25A, B ). Femur dorsally convex, ventrally armed with a row of six small ectal setiferous pointed tubercles, the fifth distal tubercle longest ( Figs 23E ; 25B ); ventroproximally with two large spines, fused at the base ( Figs 23D, E ; 25A, B ); ventromesal surface with a medial spine followed by one setiferous pointed tubercle ( Figs 23D ; 25A ).

Femurs I–IV with longitudinal rows of ventral conical setiferous tubercles ( Fig. 22B, C ). Metatarsus III swollen at calcaneus region, in lateral view with a rectangular shape ( Figs 26A, C ; 28F ); calcaneus extends from the medial region of the metatarsus ( Figs 26A, C ; 28F ), ventrally with trichomes and some lateral sensilla chaetica ( Fig. 26A, C, E ); apical region of calcaneus with a high concentration of acuminate trichomes densely covering numerous aggregated pores (glandular openings) ( Fig. 26A–D ). Tarsi III–IV without scopula and modified spatulate setae ( Fig. 26F ). Tarsal formula: 4(2):8(3):5:5.

Color (specimen preserved in 80% ethanol): General body appearance yellowish-brown; appendages light yellowish-brown ( Fig. 22A–C ); coloration clearer at the level of cheliceral insertion, creating a false appearance of a marked cheliceral socket ( Fig. 22A ). Coxae I–IV, free sternites V and anal operculum light yellowish-brown; free sternites I–IV dark yellowish-brown ( Fig. 22B ).

Genitalia: General shape of penis tubular, with a strong distal constriction and widening apically to a blunt, rectangular tip; boundary not well defined between pars basalis and pars distalis ( Fig. 27A, C, E, G ). Pars distalis with a ventral plate ending in a calyx ( Fig. 27B, F ); calyx dorsally open with two thin laminar projections (wings) ( Fig. 27B, F ); dorsally, pars distalis with a medial deep neckline ( Fig. 27B, F ). Pars distalis armed with two groups of macrosetae arranged bilaterally: a basal row of four pairs (B1–B4) extending along the edge, from the dorsal neckline to the ventrolateral region ( Fig. 27B, D, F, H ), and an apical row (A1–A3) located on the ventrolateral region of the calyx ( Fig. 27D, H, I ). Capsula externa with follis invaginated and not visible in resting position ( Fig. 27B, F ). Capsula interna with two laminar conductors that are arrow-shaped apically (i.e., medially pointed and with two lateral projections) ( Fig. 27 B, D, F, H ); conductors flank a shorter, pointed, laminar stylus ( Fig. 27 B, D, F, H–I ). When the penis is expanded and the capsula interna is everted it is possible to see that the conductors are basally fused between them and with the stylus, forming an integrated structure ( Fig. 27B, D ).

Minor male (AMNH). Body measurements: Total body length 2.40, carapace length 0.90, scutum magnum length 2.21, carapace maximum width 1.34, abdominal scutum maximum width 2.05. Appendage measurements in Table 4 . Minor male differentiated from major male by the absence of lateral setiferous tubercles on free tergite III and shorter medial setiferous tubercle; medial setiferous tubercles on free tergites I–II shorter, contrasting with the long setiferous tubercles present in major male ( Fig. 28D, E vs. Fig. 28G, H ). Additionally, minor male has a shorter pedipalp with smaller spines; trochanter of pedipalp with small setiferous tubercles, resembling female; femur of pedipalp with the mesal spine closer to the distal setiferous tubercle; tarsus not elongated and enlarged, with a proximal setiferous tubercle but with four spines, instead of the five observed in major males; claw is remarkably long, thin, and pointed, similar to that of female ( Fig. 28E vs. Fig. 28B, H ). Metatarsus III similar to major male ( Fig. 28F vs. 28I). Tarsal formula 4(2):8–9(3):5:5.

Female (AMNH). Body measurements: Total body length 2.61, carapace length 0.85, scutum magnum length 1.28, maximum carapace width 1.32, abdominal scutum maximum width 2.06. Appendage measurements in Table 4 . Resembles minor and major males in the armature of scutum magnum, but differs from major male by the absence of long lateral setiferous tubercle tubercle on free tergite III ( Figs 21A ; 28A, B vs. Figs 21B ; 28G, H ); medial setiferous tubercle of free tergite I–III shorter than in major male ( Fig. 28A, B ); pedipalp remarkably shorter than in major male and with smaller spines; trochanter without dorsal setiferous tubercles and only one small setiferous granule; femur of pedipalp with the mesal spine and distal tubercle closer than in major male; tarsus not elongated, with four spines and without proximal setiferous tubercle; claw elongated, thin and pointed as in minor male ( Fig. 28B vs. Fig. 28E, H ). Female differs from minor and major males by having metatarsus III not swollen, lacking aggregated pores and associated setae, and without the deep intrusion of the astragalum by the calcaneus ( Fig. 28C vs. 28F, I). Tarsal formula 4(2):7(3)–8(3):5:5.

Geographical distribution. United States of America: Florida: Key West or Tortugas ( Packard 1888); Biscayne Bay ( Banks 1904); Everglades National Park—Royal Palm State Park, Homestead, Marquesas Key, Barracuda Key ( Goodnight & Goodnight 1942b); Everglades National Park ( Duffield et al., 1981). New records: Key Largo, 7 miles west of Florida City, Little Duck Key, Key Largo—Pennekamp State Park, Big Pine Key—Watson’s Hammock, Tamiami Trail ( Fig. 39 ).

Unconfirmed records. Cayman Islands: Little Cayman ( Hounsome 1994); probably another species of Neoscotolemon , potentially a new species ( Fig. 39 ).

Doubtful records. Jamaica: Clarendon, Jackson Bay Cave; Saint Ann, Dairy Bull Cave and Ken Connell Hole ( Peck 1992), probably a misidentification of a Jamaican Samoidae species ( Akdalima jamaicana Šilhavý, 1979 , Reventula amabilis Šilhavý, 1979 , or another related species) ( Fig. 39 ).

Spurious records. United States of America, Ohio, Clear Creek; Hocking County; Rockbridge; Sugar Creek ( Walker, 1928: 157, fig. 11). There are no reliable records of Neoscotolemon spinifer outside peninsular Florida and adjacent Keys. The record by Walker is surely a misidentification, probably of Erebomaster acanthinus ( Crosby & Bishop 1924) ( Cladonychiidae ) that commonly occurs in southern Ohio (W. Shear 2010 pers. comm.).

Natural history. Duffield et al. (1981) stated that: “The opilionids [ N. spinifer ] were collected in Everglades National Park, Florida, in November 1977 and March 1978, from solitary retreats on the undersides of coral rocks. Also, specimens have been collected (in August 1985) in Hammock forest leaf litter.” See “Other material examined” above.
