(ICN-Ar-10606) . Etymology. The epithet is a noun in apposition refering to the institution Direccion de Investigaciones Marinas (DIMAR), for its support to LAM during the sampling in Nariño department . Diagnosis. Males of Patrera dimar n. sp. , resemble those of P. ruber by having a cymbial basal projection ( Fig. 8E ; Brescovit 1997: 147 , figs 53–54), but can be distinguished by the presence of a very wide retrolateral tibial apophysis (thinner in P. ruber ), a small projection on the base of the embolus (larger and denticulate in P. ruber ), and other on the median third (absent in P. ruber ), and absent of denticles on external edge of the embolus ( Fig. 8 C–E). Females resemble those of P. ruber and P. perafani n. sp. by the short and wide lateral borders, short copulatory ducts, and large spermathecae ( Fig. 9 F–G; Brescovit 1997: 147 , figs 55–56), but can be distinguished by their larger, thin hood (wider in P. ruber and P. perafani ), and the thin and short copulatory ducts (wide and longer in P. ruber ) ( Fig. 8 F–G).
