Tanybelus aeneiceps Simon 1902 ; Galiano 1963; Galvis & MunBoz-Charry 2017; Pró szyń ski 2017.

Material examined. 1♂ [ Figure 2B View Figure 2 ], Colombia, Co ́ rdoba, Tierralta: TuisTuis . This locality can be associated with approximate coordinates of [8°2'2.881"N, 76°5'29.993"W], [178m], 3 Dec 2014, humid forest, manual collection, E GoogleMaps . Bedoya – Roqueme leg . (LEUC; OARA-094). Type material deposited in the MNHN not examined .

Diagnosis. According to Galvis & MunBoz-Charry (2017) males of T. aeneiceps ( Figure 2B View Figure 2 ) can be easily identified by their long embolus that wraps around the periphery of the bulb, and a short, pointed RTA with a small protuberance in its base (see Galvis & MunBoz-Charry 2017; figs. 2a-d).

Measurements (specimen from Colombia). One male: TL= 4.95; CL= 2.37; CW= 2.35; AL= 2.29; AERW= 2.46; PERW= 2.53; LOQ= 2.14; PMEP=0.32; eyes of the second row separated from the ALE by 0.32 mm and from the PLE by 0.36 mm.

Natural history. In Colombia this species was previously recorded in secondary cloud forest at elevations between 600-2700 m (Galvis & MunBoz-Charry 2017). Here we report T. aeneiceps associated with shrub vegetation in tropical humid forest at an elevation of 178 meters above sea level.

Distribution. Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela.
