Patrera boteroi n. sp. Male (ICN-Ar-10643): A habitus, dorsal view; B left palp, retroventral view (Arrow: indicates tutacular groove); C palp, ventral view; D palp, retrolateral view. Scale bars: A: 2mm; B: 1mm; C: 0.8mm; D–E: 0.5mm. Etymology. The specific epithet is a patronym in honor to Ricardo Botero Trujillo , for his contributions to the taxonomic studies of Neotropical arachnids. Diagnosis. Males of Patrera boteroi n. sp. resemble those of P. quimbaya n. sp. by having an entire retrolateral tibial apophysis, similar cymbium shape, and long, S-shaped embolus ( Fig. 18 C–E), but can be distinguished by the long, curved, apically sharp retrolateral tibial apophysis (shoter and apically truncated in P. quimbaya ).
