No full textMonoblemma becki n. sp. Fundort und Material: Brasilien - Amazonas, Umgebung von Manaus, Reserva Ducke, 21. XII. 65 (A 5), 14. IV. 66 (A 1), L. Beck leg., 2 [[male]] [[male]] (Holotypus, LNK; Paratypus, CBL). Beschreibung [[male]] (5 unbekannt): orangenes Prosoma (Abb. 4 - 5), relativ erhöht, aber nicht wie bei Matta hambletoni Crosby, mit wenigen Haaren, glatt, außer am Rand, ohne Spur von Augen; Labium breiter als lang; Sternum gelblich, herzförmig, unbehaart, sehr fein bekörnt. Chelizeren (Abb. 2) unspezialisiert; Pedipalpus (Abb. 3) mit äußerst einfachem Bulbus; gelbliche, unbewehrte Beine. Vollig gepanzertes orangenes Opisthosoma. Maße (in mm): Prosoma 0,38 lang, 0,34 breit; Opisthosoma 0,48 lang. Totallánge: 0,86. Derivatio nominis: Ich widme diese Art ihrem Sammler, Herrn Prof. Dr. L. Beck. Beziehungen: Aus Nord- und Südamerika sind bis jetzt nur 4 Tetrablemmidae bekannt und zwar „ Tetrablemma " cambridgei Bryant 1940 (Cuba und Mexiko, vgl. auch Blandin, 1977), „ T. " sbordonii brignoli, 1972 (Mexiko), Matta hambletoni Crosby, 1934 (Brasilien) und Monoblemma unicum Gertsch, 1941 (Panama). Matta hambletoni (aus Minas Gerais) hat eine sehr erhöhte Kopfpartie des Prosoma, einen kleinen vorderen Zahn auf den Chelizeren, die Tibia des Pedipalpus ist verdickt und der Bulbus hat einen kleinen Konduktor; nach all diesen Charakteren scheint mir die neue Art nicht mit M. hambletoni verwandt zu sein. Monoblemma unicum (sowohl Monoblemma wie Matta waren bis jetzt monotypisch) ähnelt sehr der neuen Art nach Prosoma und Pedipalpus; der Embolus ist aber nicht so gerade und ein einziges Auge ist vorhanden. Von den beiden,, Tetrablemma " (die offenbar nicht zu dieser Gattung gehören) könnte nach dem Prosoma und dem Bulbus cambridgei zur Gattung Monoblemma gehören, sbordonii hingegen wahrscheinlich nicht (wegen des Konduktors).Published as part of Brignoli, P.

No full textXyccarph myops n. sp. (Abb. 1) Fundort und Material: Brasilien-Amazonas, Umgebung von Manaus, Reserva Ducke, 15. IV. 1966 (A 3), L. Beck leg., 1 [[male]] (Holotypus, LNK). Beschreibung [[male]] ([[female]] unbekannt): niedriges, längliches, glattes, gelbliches Prosoma, im Umriß unregelmäßig sechseckig (laterale Seiten länger als die anderen), etwas erhöht im hinteren (Thorax) Teil; sehr niedriger Clypeus; undeutliche Spuren von zwei völlig depigmentierten Augen (Stellung etwa wie in Diblemma); Labium ohne Besonderheiten; Sternum schildförmig, gelblich, glatt, breit abgestutzt (die IV Coxae um weniger als ihren Durchmesser trennend). Chelizeren ohne Besonderheiten, ohne Zähne; Gnathocoxae und Pedipalpus (siehe Abb. 1); gelbliche, behaarte aber unbewehrte Beine, Femora IV etwas verdickt. Opisthosoma weiß behaart, länglich. Maße (in mm): Prosoma 0,56 lang, 0,40 breit; Opisthosoma 0,54 lang. Totallänge: 1,10. Derivatio nominis:,, myops " heißt „ kurzsichtig "; der Gattungsname,, Xyccarph " (neutrum) ist der eines imaginären Landes in einem Roman von Clark Ashton Smith. B eziehungen: Von den schon bekannnten südamerikanischen Oonopidae gehört X. tenuis (Vellard, 1924) comb. nov. (beschrieben als Stenoonops) aus Brasilien (Niteroi) wahrscheinlich zu Xyccarph. Diese Art ist völlig pigmentiert und hat 6 normale Augen in drei Gruppen; der Pedipalpus (nach Vellard, 1.924: 128) hat „ patelle courte, tibia plus court que la patelle (d'un quart), tarse formant avec le bulbe une masse ovoide termine à la partie sup. par 1 grosse pointe mousse dirigée en dehors ".Published as part of Brignoli, P.

Specimens collected in the caves of the high Pesio Valley, including type locality of T. rupicapra Brignoli, 1971 (= T. vignai Brignoli, 1971 after Pesarini, 2001), exhibit higher degree of troglomorphism (higher depigmentation, reduction of PLE and PME, lowering of the profile of cephalothorax; Figures 15–18) in respect to the northern populations of the same species. Deeleman-Reinhnold (1978) underlines that the troglomorphism in Troglohyphantes species (i.e. loss of pigmentation, reduction of the eyes apparatus, thinning of the integuments, richer spinulation) is directly related to regressive evolutionary phenomena. The same author also points out that the degree of eye reduction within the same population is “astonishingly uniform” and that “the reduction of the optical apparatus keeps pace with the rise of isolating mechanism” (Deeleman-Reinhold, 1978). Accordingly, we assume an incipient phenomenon of speciation for these populations, previously considered by Brignoli (1971) as separate species.Published as part of Isaia, Marco & Pantini, Paolo, 2010, New data on the spider genus Troglohyphantes (Araneae, Linyphiidae) in the Italian Alps, with the description of a new species and a new synonymy, pp. 1-18 in Zootaxa 2690 on page 11, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19953
Camptoscaphiella silens Brignoli 1976
No full textCamptoscaphiella silens Brignoli Figures 272–276; map 4 Camptoscaphiella silens Brignoli, 1976: 233, figs. 2–4, 6 (♀). TYPE: Female holotype (PBI_ OON 23389), from Nepal, southern Surkya, near Puiyan, between Khorila and Bayao Khola, 2700–3000 m, in forested ravine (27 Apr 1961, H. Janetschek), deposited at the Zoological Institute Innsbruck, Austria, examined. DIAGNOSIS: The female of this species most closely resembles C. fulva in having a short copulatory duct, but differs in having the copulatory opening closer to the epigastric furrow (fig. 276; Brignoli, 1976: figs. 2, 6). DISTRIBUTION: Nepal (map 4).Published as part of Baehr, Barbara C., Harvey, Mark S. & Smith, Helen M., 2010, A Review of the Asian Goblin Spider Genus Camptoscaphiella (Araneae: Oonopidae), pp. 1-66 in American Museum Novitates 2010 (3697) on page 18, DOI: 10.1206/667.

Material examined Holotype IRAN: ♀, Isfahan Province, Laybid, 33º28' N, 50º42' E, 2100 m, 7 Jul. 1975, P.M. Brignoli & M. Di Rao (MSNV). Paratype IRAN: 1 ♀, same data as holotype. Diagnosis In structure of the vulva, females of Z. medica resemble those of Z. alexandri, but differ from them and all other congeners by their unpaired, very short and robust knob-shaped (transverse oval) receptacles (Fig. 17 D, F–H). Description Female (holotype) HABITUS. See Fig. 17 A–B. BODY LENGTH. C. 8.00 (pro- and opisthosoma are separate). COLOUR. Whole spider pale brownish-yellow; eye tubercle brownish-black; chelicerae and distal segments of legs I–IV light reddish-brown; carapace (except clypeus) and abdomen without discernible pattern. CARAPACE (Fig. 17 C). 3.04 long, 2.36 wide. EYES. AME 0.10, ALE 0.21, PLE 0.18, PME 0.17, AME–AME 0.07. ENDOGYNE (Fig. 17 F–H). Receptacles hemispherical to transverse oval, wider than high, separated by their width, covered by a few fine pores (Fig. 17 D). LEG MEASUREMENTS (holotype). [table omitted] Note It is worth noting that Brignoli (1982) illustrated a more elongate receptacle with a stem that had distinct pores on the top, whereas the examined holotype has receptacles lacking a stem and covered with less distinct pores. Male Unknown. Distribution Known only from the type locality (Fig. 47).Published as part of Sergei Zonstein & Yuri M.

Maimuna cariae Brignoli 1978
No full textMaimuna cariae Brignoli, 1978 Figs 7–9, 17–18, 26, 28 M. cariae Brignoli, 1978: 506, figs 80–83. M. cariae: Demir & Seyyar, 2017: 434. Material examined. 1♂ 6♀ paratypes, Turkey, Gökbel, 30.04.1973, A. Vigna leg. (MCSN) Diagnosis. This species is morphologically close to M. anatolica sp. n. by having a similar shape of the conductor and especially the twisted lamellar terminal end of the ventral part of the conductor. The two species can be separated by (1) the shape of the median apophysis, being massive and with irregular shape in M. cariae (Figs 7, 26) vs. narrow and pointed apically in M. anatolica sp. n. (Figs 4, 21); and (2) females differ from those of M. anatolica sp. n. by the narrower receptacles (Fig 18). Description. See Brignoli (1978: 506). Distribution (Fig 28). Known only from eastern Anatolia, Turkey. Remarks. When describing the species, Brignoli (1978) did not depict the most diagnostic ventral side of the palp, hence the identification of the male was problematic. The new photographs and drawings presented here help clarifying its identity.Published as part of Dimitrov, Dragomir, 2022, A review of the genus Maimuna Lehtinen, 1967 (Araneae, Agelenidae) in Turkey with a description of a new species, pp. 383-390 in Zootaxa 5124 (3) on page 388, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5124.3.7, http://zenodo.org/record/641104
