found in a burrow about 30 – 40 cm long, and one male paratype ( SMFD), the same locality, date and collector as the holotype .
Etymology
The specific name is derived from the type locality near the Itaya River in the Peruvian Amazon .
Diagnosis
Cyriocosmus itayensis sp. nov. can be distinguished from all other congeners, except C. peruvianus sp. nov., C. aueri sp. nov., C. giganteus sp. nov., C. bertae and C. pribiki , by its uniformly coloured carapace and abdomen and by the short paraembolic apophysis in the male palpal bulb. Differs from C. peruvianus sp. nov. by having the globular extension in female seminal receptacles, from C. aueri sp. nov. by the different coloration and by having the flat basal plates in seminal receptacles, from C. giganteus sp. nov. by having the prolateral superior keel and approximately two times longer embolus in male palpal bulb, from C. bertae by having a smooth prolateral superior keel and by the presence of the retrolateral process on male palpal tibia, from C. pribiki by the different coloration, cymbium without spiniform setae and by the metatarsal flexion between the two tibial apophyses.
Distribution ( Figures 36 View Figure 36 , 37 View Figure 37 )
Known only from Peru, Maynas province in Loreto region, Rio Itaya near Iquitos. The region is originally covered with lowland rainforest.

Variability
The variability in morphology of male palpal bulbs is shown on Figure 31e – h View Figure 31 , in the shape of spermathecae on Figure 33e, f View Figure 33 . In adult females the seminal receptacles have slightly convex basal sclerotized plates which are less extended and less sclerotized in juvenile specimens. The variability in the length of the carapace, the number and the arrangement of the cheliceral teeth, the number of labial and maxillary cuspules, the leg pattern and the spination of tibial apophyses is shown in Table 3.
