Mummuciella Roewer, 1934: 583, 587 (synonymized by Mello-Leitão, 1937: 84). Type species: Mummuciella simoni Roewer, 1934 (by original designation). Species composition. Thirteen South American species, namely: Gaucha avexada; Gaucha cabriola; Gaucha casuhati Botero-Trujillo, Ott & Carvalho, 2017; Gaucha curupi Botero-Trujillo, Ott & Carvalho, 2017; Gaucha eremolembra Botero-Trujillo, Ott & Carvalho, 2017; Gaucha fasciata Mello-Leitão, 1924; Gaucha fulvipes (Roewer, 1934); Gaucha ibirapemussu (Carvalho, Candiani, Bonaldo, Suesdek & Silva, 2010); Gaucha mauryi; Gaucha piranauru sp. nov.; Gaucha ramirezi; Gaucha santana Botero-Trujillo, Ott, Mattoni, Nime, Ojanguren-Affilastro, 2019; and Gaucha stoeckeli Roewer, 1934. Distribution. Argentina (Buenos Aires, Córdoba and Santiago del Estero provinces), Bolivia (Cochabamba and La Paz departments), Brazil (States of Bahia, Distrito Federal, Goiás, Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, Minas Gerais, Pernambuco, Piauí, Rio Grande do Sul, Tocantins), Uruguay (Lavalleja, Río Negro, Rivera). Diagnosis. Based on Botero-Trujillo et al. (2017, 2019). Members of Gaucha are recognized by the following combination of characters: (i) Cheliceral movable finger MP tooth noticeably large, taller than MM tooth (mostly evident in males). (ii) Cheliceral movable finger mucron of males with gnathal edge carina prominent and convex on lateral aspect. (iii) Cheliceral fixed finger FSD tooth absent, otherwise present only in some specimens, often reduced to the size of a minute denticle in males. (iv) Cheliceral fixed finger of female curved on lateral aspect; angular dorsal crest absent, at most obsolete. (v) Males and females with ctenidia present: sparse on 1st and 2nd postgenital sternites (spiracular sternites I and II); more abundant on 3rd and 4th post-genital sternites (post-spiracular sternites I and II); and one or two ctenidia close to posterior margin of 5th post-genital sternite (post-spiracular sternite III). (vi) Ctenidia filiform, setiform and similar on the five sternites; distinguishable from integumental setae by being longer, single-tipped (non-bifid), and flexible. Additionally, most Gaucha species present sub-ventral whitish bands of the opisthosomal pleural membranes with scattered black marks surrounding the sockets of some setae, with the exception of G. ramirezi, that exhibits an inverse pattern (i.e., white marks on the blackish bands).Published as part of Souza, Maysa F.

Dichotomius (Selenocopris) benesi Vaz-de-Mello & Nunes 2016
Dichotomius (Selenocopris) benesi Vaz-de-Mello and Nunes, 2016 (Figures 1 (a), 4(a–b), 5(b), and 6) Dichotomius (Selenocopris) benesi Vaz-de-Mello and Nunes 2016: 295. Diagnosis Within the globulus group, only D. benesi and D. ocellatopunctatus are brachypterous species. They are associated with mountain formations; Vaz-de-Mello and Nunes (2016) provided detailed descriptions for both species, and illustrated the tegmen of D. benesi. Therefore, herein the description of D. benesi is merely complemented by the inclusion of the following characters of the male genitalia: in dorsal view, paramera rectangular, onethird longer than its width at medial portion; apex slightly obliqualy truncate; surface with a feeble pre-apical longitudinal carina, inner edge curved inward at basal third (Figure 4 (a)); in lateral view, apical half of paramera approximately as wide as base; ventral sclerotised membrane between paramera thinner at basal half, slightly angulate laterally (Figure 4 (b)). ME with two hook-like projections inferiorly, projections separated by a broad U-shaped emargination; ME with a longitudinal fold at the median inferior region (Figure 5 (b)). Complex of A and A+SA endophallites thin, C-shaped in lateral view; SA endophallite with reticulate texture inferiorly (Figure 5 (h), arrow). FLP endophallite C-shaped in lateral right view, inferior region thinner than superior one; surface of the C-shaped region with irregular projections (Figure 5 (h)). SRP endophallite approximately J-shaped (Figure 5 (h)). Type material examined Holotype of Dichotomius benesi ♂ [CEMT]: ‘ Panama Veraguas Santa Fé’ /‘ 811 m 8°29 ʹ N 81° 06 ʹ W’ /‘ 16–18–VI–2013 ’/‘ V Benes lgt’. Paratype [♀, MZUFPA]: same data as the holotype.Published as part of Valois, Marcely C., Silva, Fernando A.

Luederwaldtia Mello-Leitao, 1923, g. n.
<p>Luederwaldtia (1) g. n.</p> <p>Typo: L. serripes</p> <p>Comoro occular sob a forma de uma elevacao transversa, cora dois espinhos altos, approximados, e a quasi igual distancia da borda anterior do cephalothorax e do primeiro sulco transversal do escudo dorsal. Escudo dorsal com cinco sulcos transversaes, dos quaes os dois primeiros (I e II) e os dois ultimos (IV e V) sao unidos por um sulco longitudinal mediano. Cephalothorax estreito; as bordas lateraes do escudo abdominal sao curvas e afastam se a partir do sulco 1 ate o nivel do sulco IV, e novamente se approximam, formando atraz, com a borda posterior, angulos rectos. Areas I, II, IV e V do escudo abdominal inermes, bem como os tres segmentos livres na placa anal-dorsal; area III do escudo abdominal com dois fortes espinhos ponteagudos. Ancas dos tres primeiros pares de pernas pequenas, paralletas; anca posterior duas vezes maior e mais espessa que as tres primeiras reunidas. Cheliceras normaes. Palpos mais curtos que o corpo; o femur armado de um espinho apical interno. Pernas curtas e fortes; caracteres sexuaes accessorios sob a forma de fortes dentes e espinhos nos segmentos basaes das pernas posteriores. Tarsos anteriores de 5 segmentos, os outros de seis; segmento basal do tarso anterior do macho muito dilatado. Tarsos III e IV com duas unhas simples, nao denteadas, com pseudonychio e sem escopula.</p> <p>(1) Em honra do esforcado entomologista, sr. H. Luederwaldt.</p> <p>O genero Luederwaldtia e muito affim a Pucroloides, tendo como este o tarso I de 5 segmentos, os outros de seis, o comoro ocular com 2 espinhos, o femur do palpo com um aculeo apical interno, as areas I, II, IV, V e segmentos dorsaes livres inermes, differindo, porem, em ter na area III dois fortes espinhos ponteagudos em vez de uma apophyse mediana. Especie unica.</p>Published as part of <i>de Mello-Leitao, C., 1923, Arachnideos da Ilha dos Alcatrazes., pp. 3-8 in Revista do Museu Paulista 13</i> on pages 6-
