Comments.
Possibly its
type
locality is wrong (Central America), Gorochov also doubts it in the original description, accompanying with a question mark (?).
Gorochov (2001b)
included this species in
Neolutosa
, knowing only
one female
, which in her habitus generally coincides with the diagnosis of the genus. But the character of the emarginate female subgenital plate must be reevaluated, since some females of undescribed species of
Lutosa
also have the emarginate subgenital plate.
We studied
two females
from
Ilhéus
,
Bahia
(
Brazil
) (
Fig. 14
), these females fit the diagnostic characters of the species, so we do not believe in the presence of this species in
Central America. This
situation probably occurred due to an error in the
holotype
label. For now, it is necessary to study males from the collection area of females, to fully corroborate the generic status of the species. For the females studied here, it can be confused and a reader may think that they are two different species due to the shape of the subgenital plate. However, one of the females has the subgenital plate in a normal position (
Fig. 14F
), and the other female has it opened (lowered), exposing the genital chamber (
Fig. 13G
). This could be confusing at first glance, and that is why we clarify it here
.
