Hurius vulpinus Simon, 1901a: 585 View in CoL , fig. 708; Simon, 1901b: 154 (female lectotype and female paralectotype from Quito, Ecuador, deposited in MNHN, not examined); Galiano, 1963: 363, pl. 19, fig. 16; Galiano, 1985: 10, figs. 1-7; WSC 2016.

Material examined. Colombia, Cundinamarca, Bogotá, Ciudad Universitaria Universidad Nacional de Colombia, 4.641944°N, 74.081944°W, 2600 m, 10 Sep 2002, 1♂, Estudiantes Biología Universidad Nacional (ICN-Ar 6660); same location and collectors, Sep to Nov 2003, 2♂, 4♀, 8 immatures (ICN-Ar 6247, 6418, 6640, 6663, 7175, 7180); same location, 19 Sep 2009, 1♂, 1♀, 2 immatures, E GoogleMaps . Flórez & Grupo Cheliceros (ICN-Ar 7478-7479); same location, 25 Oct 2011, 1♀ juvenile, 1 immature, W GoogleMaps . Galvis (ICN-Ar 6655); same location and collector, 20 May 2012, 1♀, 2 immatures (ICN-Ar 7250); same location, 15 Aug 2013, 1♂, 5♀, Grupo Cheliceros (ICN-Ar 7481-7482), Meta, La Macarena, June 1994, 1♀, A GoogleMaps . Calixto(ICN-Ar 6235).

Diagnosis. Males of the species can be diagnosed by their short embolus, reduced ventral tibial apophysis (vTA) with a long RTA ( Figures 1-3 View Figures 1-8 ). Females can be recognized by the presence of two posterior lateral copulatory pockets (lpo) in the epigyne ( Figures 4-6 View Figures 1-8 ).

Distribution. Colombia (Cundinamarca, Meta) and Ecuador (Pichincha, Quito, Tungurahua) ( Figure 13 View Figure 13 ). Specimens of both sexes were collected together on tree bark and in low scrubs in a highly intervened urban environment or in a conserved ecosystem. The record of H. vulpinus in the Meta department could not be georeferenced because of its doubtful locality, but could correspond to a locality in the Serranía de La Macarena at a high altitude. These localities represent the northernmost records for the genus. The known altitudinal range is 1800-2850 m.
