Etymology.

The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.

Diagnosis.

Males of Misionella carajas can be distinguished from Misionella aikewara by the longer palpal tibia and shorter paraembolic lamina (Fig. 1K‒L: arrow; 2B‒D, 11A‒B) and from Misionella pallida by the narrow paraembolic lamina (Figs 1K‒L: arrow; 11A‒B). Females can be recognized by the shorter and not curved spermathecae (Fig. 11C).

Description.

Male (IBSP 161036). Carapace orange brown with lateral borders, thoracic groove and ocular area black. Sternum, chelicerae and labium orange. Legs and palp orange. Abdomen dorsally black and ventrally grayish (Figs 1A‒C, E‒F, 13B). Total length 4.1. Carapace 1.8 long, 1.3 wide. Eye diameters: PME 0.4, separated by about 2 diameters. Sternum with shallow longitudinal ventral sulcus, without sigillae. Palp: femur length 0.9, patella 0.4, tibia 1.1 long, 0.5 wide. Leg measurements: I: femur 3.8, patella 0.5, tibia 3.7, metatarsus 3.3, tarsus 1.8, total 13.1; II: 3.3, 0.5, 3.7, 2.4, 0.8, 10.7; III: 2.2, 0.4, 2.4, 2.6, 1.1, 8.7; IV: 3.1, 0.5, 3.0, 3.4, 1.4, 11.4. Metatarsus II with a pair of hirsute macrosetae (Figs 1 G–I, 2A) on a cuticular outgrowth. Abdomen 2.2 long. Palp: tibia two times longer cymbium, with membranous area, cymbium short, and bulb globose and short, with elongated embolus (Figs 1 K–L, 2 B–D).

Female (IBSP 161040). Coloration as in male, but darker. Total length 5.6. Carapace 2.3, long, 1.5 wide. Serrula with 10‒11 teeth (Fig. 3D). Sternum as in male. Eye diameters: PME 0.5, separated by about 2 diameters. Pedipalp: length 1.4, patella 0.7, tibia 1.1, tarsus 0.4. Leg measurements: I: femur 3.1, patella 0.7, tibia 3.5, metatarsus 3.2, tarsus 1.5, total 12.0; II: 2.1, 0.7, 3.4, 2.0, 0.9, 9.1; III: 1.9, 0.6, 1.6, 1.7, 0.8, 6.6; IV: 2.6, 0.6, 2.4, 2.4, 1.0, 9.0. Legs with plumose hairs (Fig. 3C), trichobothria elevated and smooth (Fig. 3B), paired claws with 9 teeth and unpaired claw with two teeth (Fig. 3A) and calamistrum in three rows (Fig. 1D). Pedipalp hirsute (Fig. 1J) Abdomen 3.2 long. Posterior median spinnerets with one paracribellar gland spigot, along one minor ampullate gland and at least seven aciniform gland spigots (Fig. 3E). Posterior lateral spinnerets with large paracribellar gland spigots at the margin of spinning field and few aciniform gland spigots (Fig. 3F). Spermathecae with short ducts, close at base (Figs 11C, 12 A–D)

Variation.

10 males: total length 3‒4.2; carapace 1.4‒1.7; femur I 2.8‒4.5. 10 females: total length 4.2‒6.8; carapace 1.7‒2.4; femur I 2.7‒3.2.

Natural history.

This species is very common in the Carajás area, where 352 adult specimens were collected. 101 males, 251 females and approximately 400 immature (only 164 included here) were sampled in 144 caves, between the years 2006-2010. The caves are formed in iron ore in areas of residual plateau, more specifically on the bases of outcrops of iron ore or ‘canga’. The ‘canga’ are usually covered by open vegetation type called 'metalophylic vegetation’, which is characterized by plants able to grow in soils rich in iron and other heavy metals ( Pinto-da-Rocha and Andrade 2012; Carmo and Jacobi 2013). The specimens were found in lighter areas as well as in the darker areas of the interior of caves. They were always caught in the refuge of their irregular webs located on the ground and/or walls of the cavities (Figs 13 A–C). Two types of refuges were found, one formed by tubes in the interior of the guano (Fig. 13C) and other, with irregular distribution of silk, in the walls or using the nest of wasps as substrate (Fig. 13D). The prey commonly observed were micro- Lepidoptera of the family Tineidae (Fig. 13A) and immature of Hemiptera of the genus Zelurus Silvestre ( Reduviidae ). Although the new species has been found only inside the caves, the specimens do not show any troglomorphism, except perhaps the elongate legs.

Distribution.

The species seems to occur exclusively in caves in the region of the Flona of Carajás, in the municipalities of Parauapebas and Canaã dos Carajás (Fig. 14).
