Etymology.
The specific epithet is a noun in apposition and refers to the pair of semi lunar light marks on the posterior abdomen (
Fig. 36
).
Diagnosis.
Males of this species are very similar to those of
S. cearensis
sp. nov.
by having the same embolus shape, but can be distinguished from those by the stouter, wider embolus (see
Figs 49–50
). Females are unknown.
