The Neotropical goblin spiders of the new genera Ponsoonops and Bipoonops (Araneae, Oonopidae) Author Bolzern, Angelo text American Museum Novitates 2014 2014-05-22 2014 3803 1 1 http://www.bioone.org/doi/abs/10.1206/3803.1 journal article 10.1206/3803.1 0003-0082 5367419 Ponsoonops vuena , new species Figures 274–318 NOTE: Males and females have not been collected together. Overall, they are a good match but still may be mismatched. TYPE: Male holotype from a Berlese sample of floor litter from a deep ravine taken at an elevation of 1494 m at site W of Finca Palo Santo , near Nueva California , Chiriquí , Panama ( Mar. 9, 1959 , H.S. Dybas ), deposited in FMNH (34859 PBI_OON 10576) . ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition, a shortened anagram taken from the type locality. DIAGNOSIS: Males resemble those of P. boquete , P. lerida , and P. panto in having an embolus with a median protrusion and a narrowed, distinctly elongated embolus tip (figs. 300–303). They differ from P. lerida and P. panto in having a distally pointed conductor that is longer than the embolus (rather than truncated, or with short narrow projections, and shorter), and from P. boquete in having a broad conductor base, a relatively broad embolus, and a mound-shaped median protrusion (rather than a narrow conductor base, a relatively narrow embolus, and a ridge-shaped median protrusion). Females resemble those of P. bollo and P. boquete in having a narrow, long-stalked anterior genitalic process with enlarged apex (fig. 213, 288). They differ from P. bollo in having long, filiform glands at the base of the anterior genitalic process, reaching almost the enlarged part (rather than short ones), and from P. boquete in the presence of distinctly long, protruding glands at the posterior genitalic process (rather than absent) MALE (PBI_OON 10576, figs. 274–282, 289–318): Total length 1.37. Leg spination: tibiae: I v4-2-2; II v4-2-1p; metatarsi: I v2-2-2; II p1-0-0, v2-2-2. Sperm pore oval. Embolus broad, tube-shaped, longitudinally folded, with ventral slit and prolateral opening, midway with distinct dorsal mound, tip narrowed, elongated, embolus opening retrolaterally rebordered, ventrally with spikelike projection; conductor originates at embolus base, broad, lamelliform elongated, distally narrowed, twisted, tip simple, pointed, moderately longer than embolus. FEMALE: (PBI_OON 5689, figs. 283–288): Total length 1.80. Leg spination: tibiae: I p1-1-0, v4-2-2, r1-0-0; II p0-1-0, v4-2-1p; IV p0-1-0, v1-0-2, r0-1-0; metatarsi: I, II p1-0-0, v2-2-2; IV p0-1-0. Large genital plate W-shaped, median protruding part wider than long; anterior genitalic process long, narrowly stalked, apex enlarged; cluster of few, distinctly long filiform glands present at base of anterior genitalic process; posterior genitalic process pocketlike, without remarkable duct, weakly sclerotized, distally with distinct, long glands.
