Stephanopsis furcillata Keyserling, 1880

Stephanopis furcillata Keyserling, 1880: 179 , pl. 4 fig. 98 (female holotype from Brazil, deposited in ZMHB 2406, examined).

Note

We propose Stephanopis furcillata as senior synonym of Sidymella multispinulosa (Mello-Leitão, 1944) , based on the distinct opisthosoma presenting a long pair of projections with a terminal tubercle at their tips ( Fig. 24C–D ).
