Abstract
KADERKA, Radan. Neischnocolus iquitos, a new species from Peru (Araneae: Theraphosidae: Theraphosinae). [online]. , pp.441-450. ISSN 1727-9933. http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/rpb.v27i4.19198.
Neischnocolus iquitos sp. nov. from Loreto region, Peru, is described, diagnosed and figured. Males of N. iquitos sp. nov. differ from all known congeners in the presence of two retrolateral processes on palpal tibia, in combination with the presence of a retrolateral keel on embolus and the absence of granulation or microspikes on embolus or tegulum. Females of N. iquitos sp. nov. differ from all known Neischnocolus females in the morphology of the genitalia consisting of a lower sclerotized part with two short, separate seminal receptacles, and an upper part, which is transparent and notched.
