Actinopus coylei Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff, 2018

Actinopus coylei Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff, 2018: 36 , fig. 16 A–G, 17 A–F, 44 (holotype ♂, [23º 13’ S 63º 33’ W], 1km E de Hickman, Salta, Argentina, 22.iii.1988, P. Goloboff, F. Coyle and R. Bennet leg., MACN-Ar 36564; paratype ♀, same data of holotype, MACN-Ar 36564; not examined); World Spider Catalog, 2020.

Diagnosis. Males of A. coylei ( Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff, 2018, fig. 16 D–F) resemble those of A. itacolomi ( Fig. 153 A–C), A. longipalpis ( Fig. 156 A–C), A. ariasi ( Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff, 2018, fig. 12 D–F) and A. cordobensis ( Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff, 2018, fig. 15 D–F), by the PA continuous to PAc. They differ from those of A itacolomi , A. longipalpis and A. pindapoy ( Fig. 159 A–C) by the wider bulb and from those of A. ariasi by the presence of a conspicuous serrated area on embolar base and, according to Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff (2018), from those of A. cordobensis by the legs with metatarsi and tarsi similarly colored ( Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff, 2018, fig. 15 B). According to Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff (2018), females of A. coylei can be distinguished by the shape of their spermathecae with a squared base and a long external lobe, slightly straight or curved inward ( Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff, 2018, fig 17 D–E).

Description. See Ríos-Tamayo & Goloboff (2018: 36).

Distribution. ARGENTINA: Salta and Santiago del Estero.
