Barreiros leg.</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> The specific epithet is a noun in apposition, derived from the Tupi word <i>muiraquitã</i> (or <i>mbïraki'tã, muiraquitan</i>) which means tree (<i>muyrã</i> or <i>mbyra</i>) knot (<i>quitã</i>). In Amazonian mythology it is the name of a good luck charm, usually in shape of a small green frog, made from jade collected by women of the Icabiamas tribe (see etymology in Tourinho <i>et al.</i> 2010) and given as a gift to their lovers during the Iaci party.</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis.</b> Bluish iridescent tubercles present on prosoma (Fig. 3 A, 4A), opisthosomal dorsum (more numerous) and posterior third of opisthosomal venter (Fig. 3 C, 4D).

Known only from the type locality (Fig. 1).</p> <p> <b>Relationships</b>. The female of <i>C. muiraquitan</i> resembles those of <i>C. foedus</i>, <i>C. abaporu,</i> and <i>C. conori</i> in the shape of the spermathecae, but it differs by the arrangement of the spermathecal ducts (Fig. 4 E; cf. Platnick & Shadab 1977: fig. 13, Bonaldo & Pinto-da-Rocha 2003: fig. 15 and Tourinho & Saturnino 2010: fig. 15). It also differs from <i>C. iaci</i> and <i>C. becki</i> by the presence of numerous tubercles on the carapace (Figs. 3 A, 4A; cf. Platnick & Shadab 1977: fig. 37 and Tourinho <i>et al.</i> 2010: figs. 7–8). In addition, the female differs from that of <i>C. simonis</i> by having the femur I expanded and a notched pygidium (Fig. 2 B, 4C; cf. Platnick & Shadab 1977: figs. 19–20). The male of the new species is distinguished from that of <i>C. simonis</i> by the shape of the tarsal process (Figs. 3 G, 9A, C; cf. Platnick & Shadab 1977: figs. 24, 26–27); from the males of <i>C. icamiabas</i> and <i>C. iaci</i> by the carapace not bearing distinctive groups of tubercles (Fig. 3 A; cf. Tourinho & Azevedo 2007: fig. 1 and Salvatierra <i>et al.</i> 2013: fig. 7C); from the male of <i>C. becki</i> by the shape of the cucullus (Fig. 3 B; cf. Platnick & Shadab 1977: fig.</p> <p> 44); from that of <i>C. abaporu</i> by the absence of a single deeper furrow on the cucullus (Fig. 3 B; cf. Bonaldo & Pinto-da-Rocha 2003: fig.8); and from that of <i>C. conori</i> by the accessory piece of leg III not being crenulated (Fig. 9 C; cf. Tourinho & Saturnino 2010: fig. 15).</p> <p> Both male and female of <i>C. muiraquitan</i> can be readily distinguished from other Amazonian species placed outside <i>foedus</i> group as follows: it can be distinguished from <i>C. tarsilae</i> by lacking a posterior median bulge covered by tubercles on the carapace (Figs. 3 A, 4A; <i>cf.</i> Pinto-da-Rocha & Bonaldo 2007: fig. 6); and from <i>C. adisi</i> and <i>C. canga</i> by the body not being covered with navicular setae (3C, 4D; <i>cf.</i> Platnick 1988: figs. 1–2 and Pinto-da- Rocha & Andrade, 2012: figs. 5–6).</p> <p> <b>Notes on the biotope and sampling.</b> Juruti, Pará state, Brazil, is located south of the Amazon River, between the Guyanan and Brazilian Shields (Bridges 1990) (Fig. 1). Juruti lies in the Amazon sedimentary basin, which is dated to the mid to late Cretaceous and differs from the Amazon River floodplains by the presence of Quaternary alluvial deposits (Putzer 1984). There are Plateaus ranging from 100 to 170 m above the level of the Amazon, covering a great area from the north to south Amazon River (Lucas 1997), probably dissected remnants of a Plio- Pleistocene surface (Projeto RADAMBRASIL 1976; Klammert 1984). The vegetation is characterized as dense ombrophilous forest with large numbers of plant species (<i>Socratea</i> spp., <i>Mauritia</i> sp, <i>Oenocarpus</i> sp., <i>Astrocaryum</i> sp.) and large trees above 30m in height (Santos <i>et al.</i> 2011, Prudente <i>et al.</i> 2013). The climate is equatorial-humid, with a slight dry season and an average annual rainfall between 2100 and 2250 mm/year (Lucas 1997), annual temperatures ranging from 22 to 28°C, and humidity from 77 to 88%.</p> <p> This area was severely overexploited in the 1970s by intense timber harvesting (see Pinto-da-Rocha & Bonaldo 2006 and Prudente <i>et al.</i> 2013), and today the Juruti region is prized for its bauxite deposits (Bardossy 1983). The specimens described herein were collected through the Juruti Project, a periodic environmental monitoring program of regions exposed to bauxite mining.</p> <p> The efficiency of some sampling techniques used to collect Ricinulei specimens was tested in urban forests remnants in Belém, Pará, Brazil (Barreiros <i>et al.</i> 2005). It was previously believed that the Winkler apparatus would be the best collecting technique for sampling Ricinulei, and thus the comparative efficiency of pitfall traps was not previously tested (Barreiros <i>et al.</i> 2005). In the present study, 25 individuals were recorded in Winkler and 10 individuals in pitfall traps, although pitfall traps harbored more adults (eight) than Winkler (only one), we suggest the use of both techniques in tandem during fieldwork.</p>Published as part of <i>Tourinho, Ana Lúcia, Lo-Man-Hung, Nancy França & Salvatierra, Lidianne, 2014, A new Amazonian species of Cryptocellus (Arachnida, Ricinulei), with descriptions of its integumental structures and all free-living life stages, pp. 81-95 in Zootaxa 3814 (1)</i> on pages 83-93, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3814.1.4, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/286228">http://zenodo.org/record/286228</a>
