Brignolia dasysterna : Brescovit et al . 2019 b: 2, figs. 1–6 ( ). Diagnosis and description. See Platnick et al . (2011) . Material examined. 2 ♂♂ ( ASC K17 2 LC), Ascension Island (-7.95, -14.34), Volcanic breccia, non-baited pitfall trap , 24/03/2022 , coll. A. Sharp. Distribution. Ascension Island (new record, introduced), Brazil (introduced, Brescovit et al . 2019 ), and USA ( Platnick et al . 2011 ). Remarks. Brignolia dasysterna seems to be a more recent introduction to Ascension from the United States , in keeping with other recently discovered non-native species (Sherwood et al . in prep). It is not present in older samples. The habitus and genitalia of this species has been excellently illustrated elsewhere ( Platnick et al , 2011 ; Brescovit et al . 2019 ), complete with comprehensive descriptions. Therefore, we simply provide here two complimentary photographs showing the key characters to identify male B. dasysterna : the modified setae of the sternum ( Fig. 1H ) and the medial keel of the dark and elongate palpal bulb ( Fig. 1I ).
