ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a patronym in honor of Stewart Peck, collector of the
type
.
DIAGNOSIS: Males have a long embolus that originates on the posterior half of the palpal bulb (figs. 584–586) and appear to have a dorsal spine and more ventrally situated median ledges on the chelicerae (fig. 581); females have a distinctive V-shaped sclerotization along the posterior margin of the genital atrium (figs. 591, 592).
MALE (PBI_OON 37838, figs. 580–586): Total length 1.43. Elevated portion of pars cephalica granulate. Chilum triangular. Anterior ledge on paturon rounded, inner surface with small dorsal and large ventral, medially directed spines. Endites with ventral process wider, longer than dorsal process. Leg spination: femur I p0-0-1; tibiae: I v4-4-0, II v4-2-0; metatarsi: I v2-2-1p, II v2-2-0. Palps symmetrical; embolus long, originating on posterior half of palpal bulb, distally sinuous.
FEMALE (PBI_OON 10210, figs. 587– 592): Total length 1.61. Postepigastric scutum only around epigastric furrow, fused to epigastric scutum, seam present between lateral edge of posterior spiracle and lateral margin of postepigastric scutum. Leg spination: femur I p0-0-2, r0-1-0; tibiae: I v4-4-0, II v4-4-1p; metatarsi I, II v2-2-
1p.
Posterior margin of genitalic atrium with triangular sclerotization along midline; anterior margin with rectangular sclerotization.
