Enna chickeringi Silva, Lise & Carico, 2008: 82 , figs 4, 20, 21. Female holotype from Lancetilla, [15°42’N, 87°28’W] Honduras, 19.VII.1929, A. M. Chickering, (MCZ 63821) (examined).

Diagnosis. The males of E. chickeringi Silva, Lise & Carico 2008 resemble those of E. bonaldoi Silva, Lise & Carico 2008 by the shape of the median apophysis (Silva et al. 2008, p. 104, fig. 123), but can be distinguished by the small and laminar dorsal division of the median apophysis (DD) and by the rounded guide (G) of the median apophysis (MA) ( Figs 1, 2 ).

Anterior eye row straight, 0.82 wide; posterior recurved 1.58 wide. Eye diameters, interdistances, and median ocular quadrangle: AME 0.16, ALE 0.12, PME 0.20, PLE 0.10; AME-AME 0.14, AME-ALE 0.08, PME-PME 0.52, PME-PLE 0.28, OQA 0.42, OQP 0.90, OQH 0.56. Chelicerae dark brown, frontal face glabrous; promargin and retromargin of fang furrow with three teeth equidistant and equal in size. Sternum yellow, bristly; 1.50 long, 1.54 wide. Labium dark brown, 0.56 long, 0.58 wide.
