Etymology.
The specific name is a noun in apposition from the
type
locality name, Utinga.
Diagnosis.
Males of
A. utinga
resemble those of
A. nattereri
(
Fig. 67
A–C),
A. vilhena
(
Fig. 75
A–C),
A. harveyi
(
Fig. 78
A–C),
A. itapitocai
(
Fig. 83
A–C), and
A. xingu
(
Fig. 94
A–C) by the BTA displaced dorsally on the prolateral tegular surface (
Fig. 103 A
); they resemble those of
A. rufipes
(
Fig. 72
A–C),
A. nattereri
(
Fig. 88
A–C),
A. itaqui
(
Fig. 91
A–C),
A. mesa
(
Fig. 97
A–C) and
A. caxiuana
(
Fig. 100
A–C) by the well-developed PA, rebordered. They differ from those of other species in the group
nattereri
by the palpal tibia and cymbium being paler than other articles; the PI prominent, almost reaching the border of embolus on dorsal view, and longer than other keels (
Fig. 103
A–C).
