Etymology.
The specific name is a noun in apposition from the
type
locality name, Ipióca, Maceió and a famous strong drink called “ypióca” from the same region of
Brazil
.
Diagnosis:
Males of
A. ipioca
resemble those of
A. caxiuana
,
A. nattereri
and
A. itaqui
by the palpal tibia being paler than other articles and those of
A. rufipes
(
Fig. 72
A–C),
A. itaqui
(
Fig. 91
A–C),
A. mesa
(
Fig. 97
A–C) and
A. caxiuana
(
Fig. 100
A–C) by the BTA placed medially on prolateral tegular surface; and those of
A. rufipes
,
A. mesa
and
A. caxiuana
by the developed PA, contiguous to PAc in prolateral view; they resemble those of
A. nattereri
(
Fig. 67
A–C),
A. rufipes
,
A. itaqui
,
A. caxiuana
and
A. utinga
(
Fig. 103
A–C) by the palpal tibia being paler than other articles; and differ from those of
A. nattereri
,
A. vilhena
,
A. harveyi
(
Fig. 78
A–C),
A. mesa
and
A. utinga
by the inconspicuous serrated area, represented by few cusps, and from all species of the group by the rounded tegulum, as seen on dorsal view; PI sinuous in prolateral view; tegulum with a swelling above PA, visible on prolateral and retrolateral views; and surface of embolus lowest than surface of tegulum on retrolateral view (
Fig. 88
A–C). Females resemble those of
A. itapitocai
(
Fig. 83 D
) by the bilobed receptacles, with outer lobe higher than inner lobe, but males differ from those of the pore distribution reaching 75% of each receptacle apices, and by the bulbous receptacles (
Fig. 88 D
)
MALE (IBSP 112593): Total length 15.5; Carapace, long 8;wide 7.75.Carapace anterior part tapering.Anterior eye row slightly procurved, posterior row recurved (

Fig. 84 C
). Rastellum protuberant, inverted V-shaped, hirsute, without spines apically (
Fig. 84
E–F). Chelicerae with 16 denticles along prolateral row of teeth. Prolateral row with five megateeth. Retrolateral row with six megateeth and two denticle between the three basal megateeth (
Fig. 84 D
). Patella and tibia III with distal crown of well-developed thorns, on patella III interrupted in middle and on tibia III not interrupted in middle (
Fig. 85
A–B). Patellae III and IV with spines on prolaterodorsal face (
Fig. 85 A, C
). Tibia IV without spines on dorsal surface (
Fig. 85 D
). Ventral pseudoscopulae occupying 40% of tarsus I, 75% of II and 100% of III and IV. Pseudoscopula of tarsi I and II with setae spaced, forming diffuse group of bristles;-On tarsi III and IV, compact. Carapace, chelicerae, sternum, coxae, trochantera, femora, patellae, tibiae, metatarsi and tarsi reddish brown; tibia of palp yellowish-brown, paler than other articles. Abdomen pale brown (
Fig. 84 A
).
