Etymology.
The specific name is a noun in apposition from the
type
locality name.
Diagnosis.
Males of
Actinopus lomalinda
differ from all other species of the genus by the apical tegular process of 3/4 the size of the embolus and tegulum without prolaterals apophysis in dorsal view.
A. robustus
(
Fig. 181
A–C),
A. palmar
(
Fig. 189
A–C),
A. cucutaensis
(
Fig. 176
A–C) and
A. guajara
(
Fig. 192
A–C) shared with
A. lomalinda
those ATP, but only in
A. cucutaensis
,
A. lomalinda
and
A. guajara
those ATP appears separated and parallel to the embolus in prolateral view. They differ from those of
A. cucutaensis
by the ATP angle of insertion on tegulum and in the presence of a small-serrated area, which occupies only 20% of the embolus, in dorsal view (
Fig. 186
A–C). Females differ from all other species, except
A. obidos
(
Fig. 26 D
) by a spermathecae with a unique receptacle. Differs from
A. obidos
by absence of swelling on external lateral of receptacle (
Fig. 186 D
).
