Male: (AMNH): A habitus, dorsal view; C right palp, retroventral view; D palp, ventral view; E palp, retrolateral view. Female (AMNH): B habitus, dorsal view; F epigynum, ventral view; G epigynum, dorsal view. Abbreviations: dps, dorsal projection of the subtegulum; FD, fertilization ducts; SR, seminal receptacles. Scale bars: A–B: 2.16mm; C:1mm; D–E: 0.66mm; F–G: 0.25mm. Diagnosis. Males of Patrera ramirezi n. sp. can be differentiated from those of the remaining species of the genus by their long retrolateral tibial apophysis, with small dorsal projection ( Fig. 12 C–E). Females are distinguished by their epigynum with exceptionally wide, transversal hood, and transversal copulatory ducts with small seminal receptacles, anteriorly positioned ( Fig. 12 F–G).
