Patrera philipi species group

Diagnosis: males can be diagnosed by following character combination: usually with queliceral projections on anterior region of the distal edge; a prominent, conspicuous and strongly sclerotized ventral tegular process on the tegulum, closely related to the embolus; embolus short, proximally inserted on the tegulum, retrolateral tibial apophysis bifid from base ( Figs 22D ̅F; 23C̅E; 24E̅G; 25C̅E; 26D̅F; 27D̅F; 28C̅E; 29C̅E). Females are distinguished by having the hood with undulations on the base (absent in P. chucurui ); seminal receptacles absent and posteriorly positioned spermathecae (except in P. chucurui , anteriorly positioned) ( Figs 22G ̅H; 24H̅I; 28F̅G).

Composition: Thirteen species: P. armata ( Chickering, 1940) , P. sutu sp. n., P. chucurui sp. n., P. dawkinsi n. sp., P. dentata n. sp., P. Dracula n. sp., P. hatunkiru Dupérré & Tapia, 2016 , P. kuryi n. sp., P. longitibialis n. sp., P. philipi Dupérré & Tapia, 2016 , P. shida Dupérré & Tapia, 2016 , P. suni Dupérré & Tapia, 2016 , and P. witsu Dupérré & Tapia, 2016 .
