Stethorrhagus lupulus Simon, 1896: 422, ♀.

Stethorrhagus lupulus – Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: 44, fig. 10a–g, ♂ ♀.

Diagnosis

Males of S. lupulus resemble those of S. oxossi, S. latoma and S. archangelus by the presence of a DTA and by the prolaterally inserted embolus (Fig. 3B–F; Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: figs 11a–b, 12a–c, 13ac). They differ from those of S. latoma and S. archangelus by the SePP shoulder-like, blunt, developed prolaterally (Fig. 1B–F; Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: fig. 10a) (SePP reduced to a small projection in S. latoma and S. archangelus – Fig. 5C–E; Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: figs 12a, 13a) and from those of S. oxossi by the DTA large and rounded; VL with an intermediate process between vVL and dVL (Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: fig. 10b) (DTA poorly developed, represented by a shallow excavation; intermedial process between vVL and dVL absent in S. oxossi – Fig. 3C–F, Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: fig. 11b). Females are similar to those of S. archangelus and S. oxossi by the presence of a VEP (Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: figs 11c, 12d). They differ from those of S. archangelus by the slit-shaped CO and by the invaginated VEP (Fig. 2C; Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: fig. 10f) (CO circular; VEP not invaginated in S. archangelus – Fig. 6C; Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: fig. 12d) and from those of S. oxossi by the V-shaped CO, with a clearly delimited anterior margin (Fig. 2C; Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: fig. 10f) (CO U-shaped, without a clearly delimited anterior margin in S. oxossi – Fig. 4C; Bonaldo & Brescovit 1994: fig. 11c).

Description

Male and female, see Bonaldo & Brescovit (1994: 44). Additional documentation in Figs 1–2.

Distribution

Venezuela, Colombia, Peru and Northern Brazil (Fig. 49).

Remarks

Bonaldo & Brescovit (1994) refer to the locality Ariquemes, Ji-Paraná River, as belonging to the state of Roraima (north of the state of Amazonas). In fact, it belongs to the state of Rondônia in Brazil (south of the state of Amazonas). This mistake is corrected on the map of Fig. 49.
